FARMINGTON —Ready to invest in yourself with a college course? The University of Maine at Farmington Winter Term and Spring Semester online and in-person courses are now open to the public.
Winter term courses run from Dec. 26, 2023, to Jan. 12, 2024. Spring semester courses run from Jan. 16 to May 2, 2024, unless otherwise indicated.
