Fall Schedule
It’s hard to believe that the fall semester at Mississippi State University will begin in less than a month. Soon the MSU campus will be bustling with students. Summer time is very quiet on campus even with summer school classes taking place. The fall semester will soon begin and so will the excitement of another year at MSU.
August 9th is the 3rd annual Moving You to MSU - an event to help students move into university housing. It begins at 8am at Humphrey Coliseum.
August 14th and 15th are the final days for regular registration and paying fees.
August 15th is new student orientation day.
Late registration will be through August 25th.
The fall semester begins Monday, August 18th.
September 1th is Labor day and MSU will be closed.
Fall break will be October 6th and 7th.
There will be no classes that day but administrative offices will be open. Thanksgiving break is November 26th and 27th.
Fall classes end December 2nd.
Final exams will be held December 3rd - December 10th.
Commencement services will be December 12th and 13th.
December 23rd - January 2nd MSU is closed for Christmas holiday.
The fall semester is always busy with football season and other activities. It can almost be a blur since it seems to fly by. Mark important dates on your calendar so that mid-semester test doesn’t catch you off guard.
I always enjoyed the fall semester much more than the spring. Maybe it’s the cooler weather, football games, and Christmas break. Whatever the reason, I always loved it more and hated that it always seemed to go too fast.
