Information for Students
The Timetabling Team schedules all of your modules and allocates rooms to each module activity. Please note that although we aim to take other commitments into consideration, we are unable to personalise a timetable to each individual student.
Timetables are subject to change and will be updated on a regular basis. We would advise you to check your timetable regularly to view any changes and to ensure you have the most up-to-date rooming and scheduling information! There are likely to be continuing room changes throughout the year.
Wednesday afternoons
Our University policy is to avoid scheduling module activities and teaching on a Wednesday afternoon where possible. This is to allow time for sports and societies to meet and for other extra-curricular student activities to take place.
Module timetable
Classes may be timetabled between:
- 9:15am-9:15pm Monday to Thursday
- 9:15am-6:15pm on Friday
For term and semester dates, please see academic year dates.
Live daily timetables are displayed on screens at:
-
St John's Reception, City Reception, Jenny Lind Reception, Riverside Reception, Arena Reception, and the Shelia Scott building
New students: you will receive your timetable at the start of August, once you have completed registration and have made all your module choices and the rooms have been confirmed.
Returning students: you will be able to see the next academic year timetable in early August.
Timetable information
You can access your timetable through your SOLE page, via the 'View timetable' link.
See our how to guides:
Please note that your timetable is subject to change, though we will try and keep these to a minimum.
Your timetable will initially show the current week. To see your timetabled modules, please use the calendar icon or the left and right arrows to navigate to the desired week of teaching.
Please take a few minutes to read the help link (on the left of your timetable screen). It provides you with useful information, which includes:
· how changes to your timetable will be reflected.
· how you can receive email notifications of in-week changes to your timetabled modules.
· building key and links to campus maps which will help familiarise you with where you need to go for your timetabled modules.
Module information
Your timetable is as complete as possible. However, if you haven’t selected all your modules yet; these will not appear in your timetable.
Please do not worry. Once you have completed your module selections, your timetable will be updated to show the timetabled activities for these new modules. Please note that it can take up to 5 working days for your timetable to update.
Similarly, if you have selected all of your modules but would now like to move to a different module and have made a request (via the Module Change Request or met with a Programme Adviser), this change may not initially appear until it has been transferred into your timetable.
If you want to keep your module choices but need to change your activity (e.g. seminar or practical), you must discuss this request with your module tutor who will notify timetabling of any agreed changes.
Room information
If any changes are made to your timetable/rooms within the same week it will be delivered, you will receive an email notification to your student email address (please note as this is an opt-in service you will only receive these emails if you have opted into them - It is really important that you check your online timetable regularly!
Module Change Request
Should you need to make any changes to your timetable this year, please complete a module change request via your SOLE page, under 'Course Information'.
Your timetable will be updated once a module change request has been reviewed and actioned, and you will only receive a notification if the request cannot be actioned.
During busy periods there may be a delay while the request is being processed and therefore you should check your published timetable daily for updates. Until then, it is important you continue to attend the modules you originally selected.
Where do I go if I have any queries?
Initially please contact firstpoint if you have any queries relating to your timetable.
