Brooklyn College Academic Calendar 2025‑2026: Important Dates

The Brooklyn College Academic Calendar 2025‑2026 is your one‑stop reference for every deadline from Brooklyn College enrollment deadlines, tuition payment due dates, and course registration windows, to campus holidays and final exam schedules.

The Brooklyn College academic calendar helps Tigers lock in Brooklyn semester dates, plan around the Brooklyn College exam schedule, and never miss critical cut‑offs such as the last day to add or drop classes, withdrawal without a “W”, or Priority Registration opening.

Brooklyn College follows a traditional semester system plus a flexible summer:

• Fall Semester (mid-September to mid-December; 14 instructional weeks + 1 week of finals), so if you’re wondering how long a semester is at Brooklyn College, expect about 15 weeks in total, with a mid‑term recess in early October.
• Spring Semester (mid-January to early May; 14 instructional weeks + 1 week of finals), featuring a Spring Break in late March and a Reading Period before exams.
• Summer Sessions (May through August), split into Session I (approximately 5 weeks), Full Summer Session (around 12 weeks), and Session II (approximately 5 weeks), each with its own add/drop and fee deadlines for accelerated or makeup coursework.

Whether you’re mapping out your 15‑week semester course load, squeezing in a Summer Session class, or budgeting for Brooklyn College tuition, the Brooklyn College Academic Calendar 2025‑2026 puts all the key dates at your fingertips, ensuring a smooth and successful year at BC.
