Course Schedules
Find the courses that fit your schedule
Whether you’re living on campus and going to school full time or working while trying to fit classes into your schedule, we can help find the right classes to suit your needs. Often times the same courses can be offered in various semester lengths. Instead of taking a course for a full semester term you might be able to find it in an 8 week or 10 week format. Use the cards below to determine which semester course schedule will work best for you.
Important Definitions
CRN – Course Registration Number
This is a unique 5-digit number assigned to a specific section of a college course for a particular semester. This number is important because a class like ENG 1021 might have multiple different sections, each with different instructors, start times and course lengths. The CRN ensures you register for the exact version of the course you want. Click the CRN number for course descriptions and additional offerings
Crse – Course Number
The course number consists of four digits and generally indicates the class level of the course. 1000 level courses are primarily freshman or first year courses. 2000 level courses are primarily sophomore or second year courses. For example: ENG 1021 is generally considered a freshman/first year course.
Subj – Subject Abbreviation
The subject abbreviation is generally a three letter abbreviation for the course subject. For example any English subject would be abbreviated to ENG in the course schedule, biology would be BIO, Mathematics courses would be MAT, and so on.
