“Maymester,” a special three-week mini-term, will be offered in May at the University of Tennessee at Martin.

The term will span May 11-29.

Each in-person class will meet daily Monday through Friday. The four standard course time slots for three-hour courses will be: 7:30-10:30 a.m., 10:45 a.m.-1:45 p.m., 2-5 p.m. and 6-9 p.m. The maximum load will be six semester hours.

Registration for the special term will begin March 30 and end at 5 p.m. May 11. Late registration will be available until 5 p.m. May 12, but a late registration fee will apply. The normal in-state tuition and fees of $221 per credit hour ($230 for online courses) will apply. Fee payments will be due by 5 p.m. May 12. Financial aid will be available to the same extent there is assistance available during the regular summer terms.

There will be several courses offered online or as an in-person/online hybrid. The Jackson, Parsons, Ripley and Selmer centers will offer courses during the “Maymester” in addition to the summer terms.

Book loans for the mini-term courses will be available on April 27 and Cooper Hall will be used for students who need to rent housing.
