Find out how to make changes in the Schedule of Classes after its publication.

Request new sections for a course.

  • Confirm with the course instructor that enrollment necessitates additional sections.
  • E-mail the Scheduling Office with the following information:
    • Quarter 
    • Course number and title
    • Day(s) and time(s) preferred
    • Room capacity needed
    • Amenities needed in the room (e.g., audio-visual, movable seating, etc.)

Note: The Scheduling Office will e-mail the department/ program advisor with the new information to distribute to the professor.

Cancel courses or sections.

  • Confirm the cancellation with the instructor and the department or program chair.
  • Log into ISIS and lower the enrollment limit for the section being cancelled to zero on the CS SECTMNT screen.
  • E-mail students using the Class List tool to let them know of the cancellation, and that they will be dropped.
  • After e-mailing the students, e-mail the Scheduling Office about the cancellation with the following information:
    • Quarter
    • Course number and title 
    • Section code
    • Section ID number, if available
    • Confirmation that the students have been notified of the cancellation

Change the day or time on an existing section.

  • E-mail the Scheduling Office with the following information:
    • Quarter 
    • Course number and title
    • Section code
    • Section ID number, if available
    • Day(s) and time(s) preferred
    • Room capacity needed
    • Amenities needed in the room (e.g., audio-visual, movable seating, etc.)

Note: If students are enrolled, the day and time cannot be changed. Instead, the section at the original time will need to be cancelled (following the steps for Cancel courses or sections) and a new section created with the new day and time. The Scheduling Office will e-mail the department/ program advisor with the new information to distribute to the professor.

Raise or lower course enrollment limits.

  • Confirm that the demand for a particular class is compatible with the request to raise or lower the enrollment. 
  • Check that all rooms assigned will seat the new limit if increasing the enrollment limit.
  • Log into ISIS and update CS SECTMNT enrollment limit. If you need assistance, e-mail the Scheduling Office.

Update the instructor for a class.

If you are an instructor, contact your department's scheduling coordinator, who will then work with Scheduling in the Registrar's Office to change the instructor of record.
