Maymester

Starting in the Spring 2011 semester, the College will offer a small number of courses in a new semester format, the Maymester.  These courses will be full 4 unit offerings which will take place during the four weeks after graduation.  Maymester courses will appear in the Spring 2011 Schedule of Classes, but are stand alone offerings that provide exceptional opportunities for research and experiential learning off campus, throughout the United States, or even abroad.  The course offerings may be found in Special Sections in the USC Catalogue.

 

Maymester courses will be officially part of a spring semester load – when students register for their spring courses, they have the opportunity to register for three courses for the traditional spring semester and one course in the Maymester.
