  • The course scheduling process begins with colleges and departments entering their courses into myUFL.  The course schedule editing period then closes for approximately four weeks, during which the Office of the University Registrar assigns classrooms appropriately based on room capacity, technology needs, etc.  During this room assignment phase, the Office of the University Registrar will reach out to colleges and departments if more information is needed.  Once the room assignments are complete, the course schedule will reopen and colleges and departments will then be able to adjust room assignments and create additional sections as needed.

    This toolkit provides resources related to creating the schedule of courses in myUFL.
