Building your schedule
Class Schedule Worksheets are available at students.usask.ca/registration to
help you build your class schedule. When building your schedule, be sure to write
down the CRN (course reference number), the course name and number, and
the section number and for each class and lab you have selected.
When you are building your schedule to prepare for registration, remember the
following tips:

Most MWF (Monday/Wednesday/
Friday) classes are 50 minutes
long (allowing 10 minutes to
get to your next class). (ex.
8:30‐9:20 am, 10:30-11:20 am,
etc.)
Most TR (Tuesday/Thursday)
classes are 1 hour and 20
minutes long. (ex. 8:30-9:50 am)
Evening classes or classes
offered only one day a week are
2 hours and 50 minutes long.
(ex. 7-9:50 pm)
You can schedule classes backto-back
but remember you only
have about 10 minutes to travel
to the next one. Check the class
locations to make sure you’ll
have enough time.
Don’t forget to schedule labs
and tutorials, where required, to
receive credit for the class.
Some classes extend over both terms. Remember that when you register for
the first half of a multi-term class, you will automatically be registered in the
second half in Term 2.
TIP: We strongly advise you to create a back-up schedule or consider alternate
class options when building your schedule. Some classes you want to take may
already be full by the time you are able to register.
