About

Cap'n Course

Read full description

Cap'n Course was created with the college student in mind. When it comes down to planning your upcoming semester's class schedule, you already know the process is going to be time consuming. Questions you ask yourself: Which classes am I looking to take? How many subsections are available to choose from for each class? If I choose a certain time for one class, will it fit the schedule I am trying to create or does it conflict with another class? If there is a conflict, would alternative subsections to choose from fit my schedule? You generally end up with a whole lot of trial and error before even ending up with a single schedule that potentially works. Well, let Cap'n Course assist you with creating conflict-free, potential schedules for your upcoming semester. A few simple steps: Manually add information for classes you would potentially have for a schedule, set optional time parameters for your schedule, and then hit the run button to see the list(s) and chart(s) of conflict-free, potential schedules. Cap'n Course's powerful algorithm does all the heavy lifting in coming up with the schedules. Say goodbye to trial and error.
