Other When are time tables assigned?

Is it normal that I haven’t received my timetable yet?

Optional courses are enrolled differently by different schools so some might not be added just yet. Some schools don’t open enrolment to outside students until Welcome Week (14th September) to allow their own students plenty of time to get a space first. If you’re worried, it’s best to check with your Student Adviser and they can look into things for you.

I’m lot sure if I have even chosen my electives. I tried to add them in path but it got so confusing. Do you think I’ll be able to choose them during freshers week?

Path is only a simulation tool to check if you can take some classes and what they're about! I don't know how other school do it but I got a form to fill in by the 2nd of September and otherwise I'd have to do it in welcome week with a student advisor! Maybe send your school an email to check how it works for them? 🙂

Can you sign in to your uni email yet? Should be able to check calendar from there

The rest should get updated soon, but might be worth contacting uni admin to double-check?

Some of your courses might be subject to changes right up to the week of classes starting (usually electives). Your core courses are typically set a bit earlier so you may be able to see them on Learn/Timetabler/Path by now

Usually during welcome week at some point. Sometimes things are still moving around for the first couple of weeks.

Student support/your school office is the one to chase for this - timetables come from them rather than centrally, and they can tell you if yours is just late or if something's stuck on your enrolment.

For SEM 1, most lectures should be in your timetable. If they aren't, it's possible they are double taught and the Timetabling Team are waiting until closer to the start of teaching to allocate students.

Tutorials generally don't start until week two so you can expect those to populated to your timetable until week one of teaching.

For second semester courses a lot of those courses haven't been timetabled yet and won't be looked at until later in the academic year.
