Schools with early start dates and/or late end dates?

<p>Are there any colleges or universities that have finals during the week before Christmas? i.e. 12/17 - 12/21/12?</p>

<p>Also - are there any schools that start as early as (or earlier) than 8/20?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!!</p>

<p>Many places have exams that late. Fewer start earlier than 8/20 unless there is a summer session.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, there is no easy way to search for this, and the calendar for any given institution can change drastically from one year to another based on decisions taken by its administration.</p>

<p>Is there any particular reason why you need these specific dates?</p>

<p>long story of a personal nature - but really has to do with family scheduling.
I was afraid that it was going to be difficult to find schools that meet these criteria. If anyone out there has individual suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Did you have any specific schools that you know have exams during that week before xmas?</p>

<p>Happykid’s CC for one.</p>

<p>Since a college/university calendar can change from one year to the next, I don’t know that you want to use this as a criterion for selecting institutions to apply to. Lots of families have complicated schedules when their kids are in college, and generally things manage to sort out.</p>

<p>Are you saying that you WANT to start classes before Aug 20th?</p>

<p>Are you saying that you do NOT want finals that last week before Christmas?</p>
