Religious Observances Listings and Calendars

Religious Observances Listings/Calendars

It is difficult to list all religious observances and holidays, however, we've included a list of major religious observances marked by members of Georgia State's community. We have also provided the following links from other institutions, which have helpful and extensive listings.

• Drexel University: https://drexel.edu/provost/policies-calendars/religious-observances/
• American University: https://www.american.edu/ocl/kay/major-religious-holy-days.cfm
• Council of Presidents (public colleges and universities in Washington State):  https://councilofpresidents.org/about/holiday-observance-calendar/

Beneath the link to the university's religious accommodations policy, for your convenience, we have built a table of dates for some of the widely observed religious holidays from Academic Year 2021-22 through AY 2028-29. Holidays with an asterisk start at sundown on the date shown in the table.
