Classroom Scheduling and Prioritization

Priority for centrally controlled classrooms is given to academic courses. Scheduling of classrooms for all other uses should be done in accordance with the Classroom Reservations for Non-Course Events policy.

Priority for classrooms assignments is based on:

• Size of class
• Instructional requirements related to:
  • Technology
  • Board space
  • Room layout
• Accommodation requirements provided by the Office of Disability Services

Academic units who submit their annual course schedule on time in May and adhere to academic policies relating to the appropriate use of approved time blocks and distribution of course offerings will be given a higher priority.

Course requests requiring centrally scheduled classrooms, including new course additions, meeting day, meeting time, and section max changes submitted after course schedules have been posted to the web are subject to classroom availability. The Office of the University Registrar will provide available meeting patterns to academic units after classroom assignments have been made.

Academic units with classrooms and other instructional spaces under their purview have first priority to those spaces for the assignment of classes. Scheduling of these spaces for events should only be completed after the academic classroom schedule has been finalized and in accordance with the Classroom Reservations for Non-Course Events policy.
