Academic Year Chart 2020/21 Academic year chart 2020/21 Notes The chart (on page 2 of this document) is an illustration of the 2020-21 academic year as agreed by Senate on 21 November 2018, 5 June 2019, 19 March 2020 and 25 May 2021. 1. Award ceremony dates are to be confirmed. 2. Bank holiday dates are shown in their normal, expected slots, but may not be definitive. 3. University holiday dates are shown in their normal configurations around bank holidays, but may not be definitive. When staff in the academic grades (i.e. from Lecturer through to Professor) request annual leave they will need to select whether their requested leave is in an in-semester or out-of-semester period. This determines if authorisation is required (it is required for leave during the in-semester period but not during the out-of-semester period). The in-semester period is defined by the periods shown in the chart with a white background or those marked with S (Study days), R/A and [A] days (Revision and assessment days), and W (Welcome activities for new students). Therefore when staff in the academic grades request annual leave falling within any of these dates they should always select the in-semester option.

  • Academic Calendar, Payment Periods, & Disbursements
    Glossary CFR DCL Academic Calendar, CHAPTER Payment Periods, & 1 Disbursements Award limits are generally connected to a period of time and to credit or clock-hours attended. For instance, all of the programs except Federal Work-Study (FWS) have a maximum amount that can be awarded for an academic year or award year. Measurement of time is important for another reason—in most cases, awards from the Federal Student Aid (FSA) programs must be paid in at least two installments. For most programs, the amount and timing of the payments is based on the academic terms or payment periods in the program. CHAPTER 1 HIGHLIGHTS “Successfully completes” “Substantially equal” terms Academic Year requirements Direct Assessment payment periods Academic calendars & terms Disbursement issues Payment periods Payment period completion Grant programs requirements ➔ Standard and nonstandard terms Timing of disbursements ➔ Clock-hour and non-term credit-hour Related topics Direct Loan program Payment periods when student re-enters ➔ Standard terms and substantially a program after withdrawing—see equal nonstandard terms Volume 5, Chapter 2. ➔ Clock-hour, non-term credit-hour, and nonstandard Annual loan limit progression—see terms not substantially equal in length Volume 3, Chapter 5. ACADEMIC YEAR REQUIREMENTS Every eligible program, including graduate programs, must have a defined academic year. The academic year is one component used in determining the student’s eligibility for Title IV aid. A school may have different academic years for different academic programs. For example, a school may choose to define the academic year for a term-based program differently from a non-term program. In some cases, the definitionmust be different, such as in the case of a clock-hour program and a credit-hour program.

  • HIGHER EDUCATION in ESTONIA HIGHER EDUCATION in ESTONIA ARCHIMEDES FOUNDATION Estonian Academic Recognition Information Centre
    HIGHER EDUCATION IN ESTONIA HIGHER EDUCATION IN ESTONIA ARCHIMEDES FOUNDATION Estonian Academic Recognition Information Centre HIGHER EDUCATION IN ESTONIA Fourth Edition TALLINN 2010 Compiled and edited by: Gunnar Vaht Liia Tüür Ülla Kulasalu With the support of the Lifelong Learning Programme/NARIC action of the European Union Cover design and layout: AS Ajakirjade Kirjastus ISBN 978-9949-9062-6-0 HIGHER EDUCATION IN ESTONIA PREFACE The current publication is the fourth edition of Higher Education in Es- tonia. The first edition was compiled in collaboration with the Estonian Ministry of Education in 1998, the second and the third (revised) edition appeared in 2001 and 2004 respectively. This edition has been considerably revised and updated to reflect the many changes that have taken place in the course of higher education reforms in general, and in the systems of higher education cycles and qualifications in particular, including the changes in the quality assess- ment procedures. The publication is an information tool for all those concerned with higher education in its international context. It contains information about the Estonian higher education system and the higher education institutions, meant primarily for use by credential evaluation and recognition bodies, such as recognition information centres, higher education institutions and employers. This information is necessary for a better understanding of Estonian qualifications and for their fair recognition in foreign countries. Taking into account the fact that credential evaluators and competent recogni- tion authorities in other countries will come across qualifications of the former systems, this book describes not only the current higher educa- tion system and the corresponding qualifications, but also the qualifica- tions of the former systems beginning with the Soviet period.
