Definitions

Academic Schedule - The Academic Schedule is the listing of important dates and deadlines for the University of Alberta, and is published in the University Calendar each year.

Note: For detailed information, refer to the UAPPOL Academic Schedule Policy and UAPPOL Academic Schedule Procedure.

The RO begins drafting the Academic Schedule for approval by the GFC Executive Committee in the spring and publication in the following year’s Calendar. For example, the Academic Schedule for July 1, 2018 – June 30, 2019 would be drafted in Spring of 2017.

As per the UAPPOL Academic Schedule Procedure, the RO will send two drafts of the Academic Schedule to a distribution list that includes the President, Vice-Presidents, senior administrators, Deans, Assistant and Associate Deans, Directors and other stakeholders for feedback and suggested changes.

The final draft of the Academic Schedule must be sent to the GFC Executive Committee for approval no later than mid-October.

If you are charged with reviewing the drafts of the Academic Schedule, it is important to submit your feedback in a timely fashion.

Note: You should not expect to submit feedback on the Academic Schedule once it appears in the first and final drafts of the Calendar. Your feedback should be submitted beforehand when the schedule is being vetted.
