Course Scheduling
The new daily class schedule is effective for spring 2026 courses and is based on a class length of 55 minutes for Monday-Wednesday-Friday classes and 80 minutes for Monday-Wednesday, Tuesday-Thursday, and Wednesday-Friday classes, with 20 minutes between classes. Courses that meet one day a week are scheduled in 160-minute blocks and cannot meet between 11:35 pm and 2:15 pm except on Fridays.
Please see the tables below for more information.
If a department wishes to schedule a course outside of the new daily class schedule periods, a request must be submitted to the Office of Instruction.

FAQs
When will the new daily class schedule be effective?
The new daily class schedule will be effective for spring 2026 courses. Spring and summer 2026 scheduling opens July 1, 2025.
What are the benefits of the new daily class schedule?
The new daily class schedule allows various options for course scheduling, including a two-day 80-minute period, which is preferred by many instructors and students. The new schedule provides greater flexibility to students in their scheduling, increases classroom utilization across the week, encourages class times other than Tuesday-Thursday, and allows slightly longer classes to meet.
Can a department schedule classes outside of the daily class schedule periods?
Off-schedule requests require approval prior to scheduling. A request must be submitted to the Office of Instruction.
Can a department schedule a section that overlaps between periods?
No, this would be considered an off-schedule request and would require approval prior to scheduling.
When are ‘prime time periods’?
Prime time periods start between 9:55 am – 2:35 pm and are the most popular class scheduling times. No more than 60% of the total number of classes scheduled by the unit for that day should be within the prime time periods.
How would scheduling after 6:00 pm work?
Faculty may schedule classes after 6:00 p.m. in the manner that best suits the course
