Just curious, when do colleges usually resume classes after winter break? I'm trying to get an idea of how long I'll actually get to chill at home during the holidays.
It might vary somewhat depending on the institution, but most colleges and universities typically begin their spring term in the middle of January. However, this is just a ballpark range and might not apply to every university. For instance, schools on a quarter system or a trimester system might follow a different schedule.
It's also important to note that international students or those participating in specific programs or sports might need to return to campus earlier for various orientations or training sessions. You'll have a clearer picture once you're accepted and can review your specific college's academic calendar. It's always a good idea to verify these dates directly with the college in order to plan your break accurately.
