📆 Typical Spring Break Schedule
Though exact dates vary by school, here’s a general breakdown of when most U.S. colleges and universities schedule spring break:
-
Early March (March 2–8)
Many Southern universities and large public schools begin break early, heading to warm-weather destinations before the crowds arrive. -
Mid-March (March 9–15)
The most popular and busiest week of spring break! Most public universities and major colleges are off during this period, creating peak energy and packed resorts. -
Late March (March 16–22)
Many smaller colleges and schools in colder regions take spring break later to enjoy warmer weather. -
Late March to Early April (March 23–April 5)
Private colleges and some East Coast schools wrap up the season, often enjoying a more laid-back atmosphere with fewer crowds.
