Course Special Fees
Departments will be prompted to run a Special Fee WebI report each semester to review special fees on course sections.
For more information about special course fees and the process to add, delete or change fees, see 'Special Course Fees' menu under Course Management.
Distribution of Course Sections
- Course sections must be distributed evenly throughout the day, including noon time and evening courses.
- The number of MWF and TR sections must be proportionate.

Courses not eligible:

Standard Time Block Usage
The Dean's Office must approve courses scheduled outside the standard time blocks listed below. This includes changes in the course schedule to a non-standard time block. Approved, non-standard courses will be scheduled but run the risk of being removed if a course scheduled during a standard time block is in need of a classroom.
