Dates are an important part of your course. The cohort start and end dates will display on your course landing page, but you will set and update these dates in the Settings tab of your course admin dashboard.

Cohort Start Date - the first day of your course. This might be your first live workshop or cohort orientation date. This date shows on your landing page.

Cohort End Date - this is the final day of your course. This also shows on your landing page.

Application Deadline - (present in courses using an application) this is the last day for students to submit an application to your cohort if you are using one. You can customize this to a certain hour and minute.

Payment Deadline - this is the last day students can pay for their enrollment in your course. You can customize this to a certain hour and minute.

Student Portal Open - the first day students can access your course syllabus, the cohort network, and any linked resources or communities. Until this date, enrolled students will see a countdown timer to your course Start Date.
