American University Academic Calendar 2024-2025

This page outlines the American University Academic Calendar for 2023-2024 academic year. The Academic Calendar on this page lists all relevant holidays, breaks, class start and end dates, as well as Registration and Bursar dates. It provides a comprehensive schedule of activities for an academic year, including final exam week, breaks, and the end of the semester.

Bear this in mind, the academic calendar helps everyone remember important dates and events. Students, teachers, and staff rely on it to know when things are happening at school. It’s not just for people on campus; it also gives information to parents, former students, and new students who are thinking about coming to the school.

This calendar is important because it shows what life is like at the school and helps people decide if they want to be part of it. So, it’s a very useful tool that makes the school experience better for everyone.
