Wintersession is a time in January when some students may be permitted to live on campus to pursue designated academic opportunities, including some courses and thesis work.
Typically during this time period, there are some academic offerings involving study abroad as well. Wintersession courses involving study abroad are typically listed first by the Committee on Curriculum and Academic Policy of the Office of International Study website here.
Students taking Wintersession courses are subject to academic regulations as if they were taking the course during a regular semester.
