College is hard! Scheduling doesn't have to be!


You are student number interested in making college life a little bit easier.


This screen displays the resulting schedules and the details of the currently selected schedule.

If you have ever scheduled for college classes before, certainly you know what a pain it can be. First you spend half an hour trying to find four or five classes that don't overlap, don't conflict with your work or family schedule, and don't have you sitting around campus for five hours waiting for your next class. And then just when you find it, as fate would have it, one of your classes is full. Now, you could sit back down and trudge through this aggravation once more, hoping you will have better luck this time. Or you could skip all of the hassles of scheduling by starting out right, with the College Scheduling Assistant from F&F Software. With the College Scheduling Assistant, creating class schedules is as easy as 1-2-3.

The revolutionary College Scheduling Assistant is the only program with you, the college student, in mind. The College Scheduling Assistant takes you from start to finish in creating your schedule. No more flipping through 100 page catalogs to find those 4 pages which list the classes you need. No more comparing dozens of classes to find out which ones don't overlap or are during the desired hours. And no more repeating this process several times until you find the schedule you like and can get. Now all you have to do is enter the data copy, copy the results, and head to the registrar's office to register for class. And if you have a printer available, the whole process is even easier. We'll copy the data for you. Just click the Print Schedules button, select which schedules you like, then press the Print button to create a high quality printout of all of the schedules you asked for. It's that easy.
