Washington University in St. Louis requires all fall and spring classes scheduled in university-managed (pooled) classrooms to adhere to a standard set of meeting days and times.

The Office of the University Registrar (OUR) coordinates academic scheduling in accordance with the University’s Classroom Scheduling Policy The OUR is significantly involved in facilitating the management of courses and classroom scheduling across much of Washington University’s Danforth Campus.

In adherence with the policy, pooled classrooms are designed to meet the teaching and learning needs of a broad range of academic programs and to provide event space options for the entire Danforth Campus. Class-related events (classes, evening exams, review sessions, and final exams) scheduled in pooled classrooms are assigned by OUR using the university’s classroom scheduling tool–Event Management Software (EMS). The process ensures equitable access and maximizes space utilization.
