This page is for graduate students who have been admitted to a University+ administered graduate program and are ready to enroll in classes. If you're interested in taking a class prior to your admit term, please visit the Non-Degree Students page.
University+, Univ+, or U+ is a designation in SPIRE for classes that were previously labeled as UWW or CPE. Courses in the U+ session are primarily online, flexible, and part-time (with some exceptions where indicated).
The University+ Session is administered by the Flexible Education Division of UMass Amherst.
