Planner

Add your class schedule

Class schedules automatically block time on your BetterCampus Planner so you won't accidentally schedule study sessions during class.

Why it matters

When your class times appear directly on your Planner calendar, you can see at a glance when you're free to study. This prevents double-booking and helps you plan realistic work sessions around your actual schedule—no more realizing you scheduled a study block right when you have lecture.

Open class schedules

  1. Open the Planner from the BetterCampus sidebar

  2. Click Schedule at the top of the planner

  3. Select Class Schedules from the dropdown

Click Schedule at the top of your Planner, then choose Class Schedules to open the class schedule panel.

Understanding the panel

The class schedules panel shows your courses in two sections:

  • Scheduled — Classes you've already added with their meeting days and times

  • Unscheduled — Courses from Canvas that don't have times yet

The Scheduled section shows classes with times. The Unscheduled section shows courses that need times added.

Add your class times

You have two options:

Import from Canvas

Click Import Class Schedule to pull your schedule directly from Canvas. BetterCampus will automatically add your class times to the planner.

Add times manually

If your Canvas courses don't have meeting times, or if you want to adjust them, you can add times manually for each course in the Unscheduled section.

What happens next

Once your classes are scheduled, they appear as time blocks on your Planner calendar. You can still add tasks, drag them to open time slots, and plan your work—just now with your actual class schedule visible so you never double-book yourself.
