October 4–8 — Hoptoberfest
October 10 — Last day to drop courses via self-service
Last month’s edition of the BJFF and the 2021 JHU Parent and Family Guide advertised incorrect dates for this year’s Fall Break. While Fall Break traditionally takes place in October, this year it will combine with Thanksgiving Break, which will now run from Monday, November 22 to Friday, November 26, 2021. Classes will not be in session during that time. We apologize for the confusion.
November 8 — National First-Generation Student Day
November 12 — Last day for course withdrawal via Case Management System; Last day to change enrollment grading system ("S/U")
November 22–26 — Thanksgiving Break, no classes
December 3 — Lighting of the Quads
December 6 — Last day of classes
December 7–10 — Reading period
December 13–21 — Final examination period
