Scheduling Polices and Procedures
Room & Course Scheduling in the Office of the Registrar handles scheduling in about 250 rooms across campus known as Centrally Scheduled Classrooms (CSC). The University of Arizona has dedicated these spaces for classes. Events are scheduled in the spaces as availability permits.
To improve classroom utilization, the University of Arizona implemented classroom usage guidelines in Fall 1999. This memo from the Office of the Registrar in support of the Provost's Office policy was distributed to Deans, Department Heads, and Directors in October 1998. If you have any questions about the policy, please contact the Provost's Office.
