UQ0156

Do university students usually have a weekday with no classes?

It cannot be said generally that university students usually have a weekday with no classes. Some students may be able to arrange one when course registration is flexible, but required courses, year- or department-specific timetables, laboratories, and practical classes can make this difficult.

Key points

  • Depending on course choices, it may be possible to have a weekday with no classes.
  • Required courses, laboratories, and practical classes can limit scheduling choices.
  • Check the timetable and course-registration guide for the relevant university, faculty or department, and year.

Things to check

  • Whether this is possible and what the actual timetable looks like depends on the university, faculty or department, academic year, and courses taken.
