Calendar and Costs

CALENDAR

We welcome students for summer terms, one semester, or the academic year.

The fall 2019 semester arrival day is August 18, 2019. If you arrive on August 18th between 8:00am and 10:00pm at the Memphis, Tennessee airport, we will pick you up and transport you to Oxford, Mississippi free of charge. A free shuttle from Memphis International Airport is provided on the Official Arrival Day each semester from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. If you plan on arriving before August 18th you will need to secure a hotel room at the airport until August 18th or arrange your own transportation to Oxford and stay in a hotel until on-campus housing opens on August 18th.
