Guidelines

Classes not using standard meeting patterns will not be assigned a general pool classroom. Classroom demand is at a record high, so to accommodate the many requests from departments/instructors, these guidelines must be followed.

Begin scheduling your classes at 8:00 AM. You must use all standard MWF/TR meeting patterns before you may repeat an existing MWF/TR meeting pattern on your schedule. You must then reuse every MWF/TR meeting pattern before repeating a third time, etc. Please submit at least the same number of sections/seats (or more) as your department offered in the previous like semester. Unequally distributed schedules will not be accepted and will be returned to the department to be corrected.

If you are unfamiliar with the correct procedure for submitting your classes, please contact us. We will be happy to assist you in any manner we can.

Schedule Distribution

3-credit courses

How to distribute your courses when scheduling:

1. First, schedule your courses using only standard meeting patterns. Do not repeat a meeting pattern until you have used all possible patterns ONCE. (In the example, courses were scheduled from lowest to highest course number.)
2. Then, if any courses remain to be scheduled, you may repeat each pattern for a second time. (In the example, REGR 6000, REGR 7000.) Do not repeat the meeting pattern a third time until you’ve used all possible patterns twice.
3. Repeat until all standard meeting pattern courses have been scheduled.

4-credit courses

How to distribute your courses when scheduling:

1. First, schedule your courses using only standard meeting patterns. Do not repeat a meeting pattern until you have used all possible patterns ONCE. (In the example, courses were scheduled from lowest to highest course number.)
2. Then, if any courses remain to be scheduled, you may repeat each pattern for a second time. Do not repeat the meeting pattern a third time until you’ve used all possible patterns twice.
3. Repeat until all standard meeting pattern courses have been scheduled

MEETING PATTERNS – FOUR-DAY OPTIONS (not all shown in grid):

For every course, choose ONE from EACH group. Do not use either choice again until all other choices have been used once.
