SCHEDULE HERO FOR ADVISORS
Schedule Hero is UNCG’s new tool that helps students and advisors generate schedules that take a student’s academic progress and life balance into consideration. Advisors can work with students to automatically generate schedules that meet both of these needs.
By default, UNCG faculty and staff are able to login and search for classes and generate and plan custom course schedules.
FORMS
