UH to Offer Selected Courses During Holiday Break

University of Houston will offer selected courses in a Winter Term during the holiday break. Currently registered Fall 2008 students will now have an additional opportunity to complete selected classes in an accelerated format.

Winter term classes will be offered between December 17, 2008 and January 17, 2009. Fourteen pre-selected courses will be available from a variety of disciplines that lend to the diversity offered to students. To view a full listing of available courses along with the class numbers, see the chart. Please note that Winter Term courses cannot be found using the class search for Spring 2009 in myUH (PeopleSoft).

Credit for UH Winter Term courses will be awarded in the spring semester. Continuing students will need to enroll in a Winter Term class via myUH (PeopleSoft) for the Spring 2009 semester. Please note that undergraduate policies, such as the 6 W Rule, and Course Enrollment Cap apply to these enrollments.

Students can enroll in Winter Term and/or Spring 2009 courses beginning November 19. To add a Winter Term course in via myUH (PeopleSoft) for the Spring 2009 semester, students will need to enter the correct class number into the “class number” field.

Please carefully review all class meeting times, mode of delivery and class footnotes for specific information on the courses. Please note: If a class during the Winter Term has a time, date, or credit hour conflict with any “regular” Spring 2009 class for which a student wishes to enroll, please contact the Office of Educational Outreach at (713) 743-3327.

For more information on the UH Winter Term, please contact the Office of Educational Outreach at (713) 743-3327.
