How much time should I leave between classes for travel, meals, and preparation?
Estimate the time you need to travel to the next classroom, eat, and check materials or submit work, then leave enough space between classes. The time required can differ depending on whether classes are in the same building or different buildings, how busy dining locations are, and the preparation each class requires. Check the actual room locations and timetable and adjust your schedule accordingly.
Key points
- Estimate travel time based on the distance and route between classrooms.
- Include purchasing food, queues, and tidying up in meal plans.
- Set aside time to check materials, submit work, and prepare for the next class.
Things to check
- The time needed varies with campus size, class locations and content, and individual mobility needs. Before registering, check the official timetable, room information, and campus map.
