Academic Calendar for the College of Pharmacy
The College of Pharmacy has a separate academic calendar from the UT Tyler undergraduate and graduate populations. In general, the College of Pharmacy fall and spring semesters start one to two weeks earlier than the equivalent semesters for the undergraduate and graduate populations, but end at the same time. Additional calendars, such as the UT Tyler Academic Calendar, Enrollment Calendar (Admissions, Financial Aid, Registrar’s Calendar), and the monthly College of Pharmacy calendar are located on the UT Tyler Academics web page.
Academic Semesters and Sessions
The first three professional years are organized into two semesters, i.e. fall and spring semesters. Within each of these semesters there are two 8-week sessions. The Pharm.D. courses are organized to fit within each of these 8-week sessions; with each having separate enrollment, census dates, add/drop dates, and final exam periods. One exception to this structure is the longitudinal courses that may span across two or more sessions. Starting the summer semester of the third professional year, the sessions shorten to 6-week sessions to accommodate the APPEs with two six-week sessions in the summer and three sessions in the fall and spring.
