Now students and candidates can check the UNH Academic Calendar for 2023-2024 on this page. All information to guide you has been provided for you.
An academic calendar is essential for students, teachers, and staff. It’s like a reminder that shows all the important events and dates for the whole school year and each semester. It’s not just for them; it also helps parents, alumni (former students), and people who want to join the school. They all get useful information from it. What’s interesting is that each school makes its own academic calendar with lots of specific and carefully chosen dates.
As the primary custodian of student records, the Office of the University Registrar is dedicated to upholding the academic integrity of the organization. The institution’s rules and practices will be regulated with assistance from the Office of the University Registrar. Our goal is to serve all of our customers in a way that is efficient, ethical, respectful, and professional.
In order to carry out this objective, the Office of the University Registrar is in charge of putting policies, practices, and systems in place that support course registration, final grading, degree auditing, maintaining academic records, and graduation. The integrity and excellence of the University of New Haven’s purpose will be guaranteed by these rules, processes, and systems.
