Create Your Own class schedule using DARS Schedules
If you prefer not to use the "auto-generate" feature, you can create your own schedule.
For example, if you want to explore full classes, you will want to create your own schedule.
(Auto-generate will not generate schedules for full classes at this time.)
Step 1 - Click on the calendar icon to push the classes you plan on taking into DARS Schedules . Hint: The semester needs to be open to see the calendar icon. Click the toggle arrow to open.

Step 7 - Your newly created schedule defaults to a "backup schedule" unless you do not have any other schedules. You can rename your schedule or leave the default name, but it must be your primary schedule to add it to your shopping cart. If needed, click on the "Make Primary" button.
