Holiday Schedule
Atlanta and Houston Campus Holiday Closures
The AIU Atlanta and AIU Houston campuses will be closed on New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, the Friday following Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. Announcements relating to campus closure for any other reason will be posted on the student portal and students will be notified through the University’s emergency notification system.
Online Campus Holidays
Online students are not expected to log into their courses during an official holiday and instructors do not maintain any course requirements, chat sessions, or office hours on official University holidays. Since certain holidays fall within an identified break period, they are therefore not indicated on the academic calendar since classes are not held during break periods.
AIU Online makes every effort to accommodate any conflicts that may result from scheduled course chats or other University activities scheduled on a student’s required observance of a religious holiday. Notification of any such conflicts must be made in writing to the Director of Academic Advising at least seven calendar days in advance of the observance.
