| 9-17(A) | 9:30 – 11:50 Class |
| 2-17 (A) | 7:30 – 12:00 Class |

The teachers listed are not necessarily the teachers teaching that course. Teachers and classrooms will be added later.
If you do not see a course listed that you have registered for, it is because the class you registered for did not make or the class is currently showing full and your name has been added to a waiting list. Please check the website for classes that did not make or have a waiting list.
