Step 5
The Schedule Planner home screen should appear.
- In the top right corner of the page are short Help Videos that provide detailed instructions on how to use Schedule Planner.
Do students have the option to search by Part of Term like shown below or no?
Step 6
From the home screen, desired courses can be added by clicking on the "Add Course" option.
For example, if ENC1101 is the desired course, select the subject code "ENC", and the course number "1101". Then, click "Add Course". This course option will then be added to the "Courses" list.
Step 7
Before generating schedule options, Breaks may be added to the schedule.
- When breaks are added, Schedule Planner will not show courses that meet during the designated "Break" times.
To add a Break, click on the "Add Break" button. For example, if Practice is MTWR from 3:30-5:30 pm, the time block can be added to the schedule.
- Breaks can be used for any kind of break needed when creating a schedule (Example: work, practice, meetings, or other regularly scheduled appointments).
- Need to re-do this screen shot b/c of pop up in window.
You may assign you break a name, then input the Start and End times of the break, as well as choose the appropriate days.
Step 8
Once the Breaks and Courses have been added, clicking "Generate Schedules".
- Make sure all desired classes have the box checked next to the course number. This will display all possible options with available classes. Closed classes will not be considered as a schedule option.
Will a student ever be shown more than 1 option for a schedule? If so, let's get an example of what that looks like.
Step 9
Possible schedules based on the criteria entered (campus, courses, breaks, days/times) will appear in the "Schedules" portion of the home page.
- Click the "View" link to view the details of the generated schedule.
Step 10
Once you have determined the schedule which you prefer, click on the "Send to Cart" button.
- This will send the courses to the Registration Cart. Adding classes to your cart will automatically save the selected classes and may be viewed by the adviser.
Step 11
Once ready to actually register for the courses, click "Register".
Need to re-do this screen shot with the Register button highlighted. Do students get this far if they have a hold?
- The courses should now appear in the MyClasses app in MyUWF.
- If you are attempting to register prior to your Time Ticket becoming open, you will receive an error when you click "Register"; please choose the "Save Cart" option (shown below) and attempt to register again when your Time Ticket opens.
- Holds on your account will also prevent registration. For information on both how to view your Time Ticket and Holds, please see Viewing Student Registration Status.
If you are NOT ready to register, but wish to leave the courses in your cart and register for them at a later date, choose the "Save Cart" option.
Dropping/Withdrawing from Courses
To drop a course after registration, please follow the instructions for Dropping Courses or Withdrawing After Drop/Add (as applicable), then you will also need to remove the course from your Schedule Planner cart.
