Abstract
Summary The onset of COVID-19 in the spring of 2020 disrupted academic schedules for many colleges, including course registration for the fall of 2020. We solve the problem of salvaging the majority of an existing semester course registration when separating the semester into two terms. The problem was solved using integer programming.
