Important Deadlines for Course Schedule
Academic departments should carefully build and review their class schedules in coordination with their College Dean to ensure all major changes are completed before submission to the Office of the Registrar. You can review the preliminary schedule in Power BI at any time to track updates made by departments.
During the schedule build audit, the preliminary course schedule should include only minor adjustments before publication. The Office of the Registrar will monitor progress, send reminder notifications as needed, and communicate all updates and upcoming deadlines via email.
