All breaks of 5 days or more during a term must be accounted for in break setup or the R2T4 calculations for the terms will not be calculated correctly. For non-term programs, all breaks in instruction (regardless of length) need to be accounted for so that the proper calculation of payment period length and weeks will occur.
