Top 10 -- Features of E-Schedule
It Updates Itself
 When you re-open e-schedule it gives you an option to update. Any changes to the classes – like new class notes, etc. – and new schedules are updated on your existing download.
It Is There Forever
Forever. Forever-ever. Until you trash it, the e-schedule stays on your computer for your use. As long as your computer survives, so does the e-schedule. No worries about losing your schedule, getting it wet or having your iguana eat it.
Everything Is There
E-schedule includes links to department webpages and the college catalog in addition to class listings. In theory, you could sit in your pajamas, eat some Hot Pockets, sign up for online classes and never have to the leave the house. Utopia, now!
No More Newspaper Hand
You know the icky, dirty feel your fingers get when you thumb through the printed schedule. Well, that’s called “newspaper fingers” in the biz. With e-schedule, also enjoy the large, clear font, which is substantially easier to read.
No Notes?
The e-schedule has class notes. The printed schedule does not. Enough said.
Early Birds, Sleepers Rejoice
Search classes by morning, afternoon or evening. Do not be hampered by sifting through a bunch of morning classes when looking for a full docket of classes starting at 1 p.m.
Let Technology Be Your Friend
On e-schedule, courses can be sifted through – by the computer – by site (any of the Collin campuses) or the variety of courses like online, weekend, blended, honors, telecourse or Learning Communities.
Quicker, Easier
Instead of thumbing through a printed schedule, e-schedule allows students to find classes by merely clicking a button. Comprehensive lists of courses and subject areas are available. Find the class, click it and watch as the magic happens.
If You Are Looking For It, It Is There
If you do not know how to register, or how much tuition is, it is all available online. Contact numbers and e-mails, important links and gobs of other information are all there. '
Mother Earth
Just imagine all the owl habitats and shade trees you are saving by downloading the e-schedule and leaving the printed schedule for the chumps.
