Course Schedule Maker guide

College Schedule Maker

Build a college schedule from real sections, labs, rooms, instructors, credit hours, and prerequisites, then catch conflicts before registration.

Plan section by section, not course by course

A college schedule is a set of section choices. Add CS101 A01, MATH201 B02, the meeting times, rooms, instructors, credit hours, and any prerequisite notes before comparing the week.

See lectures, labs, and discussions together

Keep every meeting under its course so a Thursday lab or Friday discussion cannot disappear from the plan. Colour-linked blocks make multi-session courses easy to scan.

Catch the overlap before you register

When two college classes overlap, both blocks turn red and the warning names both courses and their times. The tool flags the problem but does not auto-reshuffle your registration choices.

Take a copy to an advisor

Use the semester timeline for midterms, papers, reading weeks, and finals, then print Letter/A4, save PNG/PDF, export a one-time .ics file, or share a read-only link.

What to enter before registration opens

Collect the course code, section, credit hours, prerequisites, days, start and end times, room, and instructor. This gives you enough detail to compare two sections without relying on memory or a screenshot from the registrar.

Leave room for the real college week

A schedule that technically fits can still fail if two buildings are across campus or a lab runs long. Add room names, commute blocks, work shifts, and study time around the fixed course meetings before calling the plan finished.

Bring an alternate plan to your advisor

Use a read-only link or printed Letter/A4 copy when you meet an advisor. Keep your primary and backup section choices visible, then edit the browser copy when registration changes a room or instructor.
