Scheduling Information Sheet

For Use in Scheduling Large Lecture and All Primaries and Secondaries

Enrollments

Courses for Large Lecture should have projected enrollment of 50 or greater.
Indicate projected enrollment for all primaries and secondaries.
Classes may need to be moved during the enrollment period to accommodate actual enrollments, if other classes need larger rooms.

60/40 Prime Time Rules

No more than 60 percent of primary classes should be scheduled in the prime-time hours of T/Th 9:50 A.M. –5:05 P.M or M/W/F 9:20 A.M. – 3:45 P.M.

When requesting a general assignment classroom, use room features to request a type of room; do not request a specific room.
Check the Registrar’s website for current information on features in the classrooms at: http://registrar.ucsc.edu/classrooms/information/index.html.
Please do not ask for combinations of features that don’t exist.
Review media needs with faculty before submitting scheduling requests to give the most accurate indication of what is needed.

Courses taught at non-standard times should be kept to a minimum.
When planning a non-standard time, try to impact as few time periods as possible. This will help in both
securing a room as well as enabling more students to enroll in the class.
This is also true for secondaries. If you need to request specific times for secondaries, keep them in the standard time blocks.

Please refer to the Coursedog User Documentation for more scheduling instructions.
