Classroom Scheduling

The Office of the Registrar is responsible for assigning all courses and sections to classrooms. After the early registration period, the scheduling coordinator will survey all instructors about their space needs and preferences. Room assignments are based on registration figures, enrollment limits, technology needs and, if possible, instructor preferences.
