In the Schedule of Classes, the Session is an optional search criterion (and a field in your search results) that allows you to distinguish between University-scheduled classes and classes offered through University+ (formerly UWW).
About University+ (Univ+)
Through Univ+, you can register for all summer and winter classes. You can also enroll in evening classes, online classes, and non-credit workshops in the fall and spring semesters. Univ+ also manages various certificate programs, and several on-campus and off-campus graduate and undergraduate programs. Note: Matriculated University students may be eligible to self-enroll in Univ+ classes using SPIRE. Eligibility for Univ+ self-enrollment varies by term and class.
Students who are eligible to self-enroll must have a Summer/Winter Enrollment Appointment before they can do so. In SPIRE, go to Enrollment > Summer/Winter Enrollment Appointment to request a new Summer or Winter term appointment or to view an existing appointment. All other students can use SPIRE only to view Univ+ classes and must contact University+ directly to register.
