Okay I kind of JUST finished doing everything up to the end of the enrolment wizard and I think this is how it works: (sorry if you get confused still, I'm not too good at explaining things ><)
1) Timetable search
Griffith University | Timetable search
First thing is to enter the course codes for the courses us first years will do in semester 1 (e.g. listed here
Griffith University | Bachelor of Oral Health in Dental Science - Gold Coast) which would be
1001MSC
1014MSC
1016MSC
1008PSY
This brings up a wholes list of lectures, tutes and pracs for each course with various times to choose from.
So I think the whole point of this timetable planner is to start fiddling around which the checkboxes to find a combination of classes and times that don't clash and suit your own preferences as much as possible. If you scroll down to the bottom you'll see a preview of the timetable during a week where all of your classes are on so you can check for clashes and visualise times better. (Umm I think at first all the checkboxes are ticked automatically so I kind of
-ed at how massively cramped the timetable preview looked HAHA)
Once you've finished creating the word's greatest timetable, leave the window open for the convenience of the next bit...
2) Enrolment Cart
Found at potral > student > enrolment > enrolment cart
The timetable planner is just a tool which helps you to search and pick class times that suit you but you've actually not inputed anything as part of your enrolment yet. The enrolment cart is where you enter in your actual class choices.
In the box labelled "Enter Class Nbr", enter the number in the "class" column for the specific class times you've chosen in the timetable planner. This brings up a whole list of tutes and pracs for that class and all you have to do is find the ones you've picked in the timetable planner. Follow the prompts and repeat for the next 3 classes.
When you've done all that, you should be able to view and check all of your classes in your enrolment cart. At this stage, the enrolment is still incomplete, so your place in the time slots you've chosen aren't guaranteed to you yet. To finish, there should be a button on the enrolment cart page saying to enrol, and clicking it brings up the enrolment wizard. I think from there on you should be okay, just follow what it says (yy)
Umm I'm pretty sure there's more to do after this which I haven't gotten to yet but I THINK getting up to here guarantees you the class times you've chosen. I think it's best to enrol ASAP since you can already see how some time slots are already full. I belive you can always cancel the enrolment in the end if you decided to go somewhere else
(not 100% sure how though)
HOPEFULLY I've done everything right so far (someone please tell me if I actually screwed it majorly) HAHAHA
Interested to know when the deadline to get everything done is as well
