Do you know the difference between standard term, non-standard term and nonterm? Do you know when you are required to use a different academic calendar based on how your classes are set up, and what processing financial aid under those calendars looks like? This panel will explore the different academic calendars, incorporating the revised standard term length guidelines from 2019, discuss scenarios that moved a program from standard term to non-standard or nonterm, and how financial aid offices are processing aid for non-standard and nonterm programs.
