Upload and review

After a school is approved, its authorized contact receives a private upload link. Use that link only for the timetable covered by the partnership.

Accepted files

Upload one file, up to 15 MB:

• CSV or plain text: .csv, .txt
• Excel: .xls, .xlsx
• PDF: .pdf
• image: .png, .jpg, .jpeg

The server checks the file contents as well as the extension. Renaming an unsupported file does not make it valid. Password-protected or empty files cannot be processed.

For the cleanest import, include a clear header row and keep course, section, day, time, room, and instructor values in separate columns where possible.

Use the upload link

1. Open the link sent to the authorized school contact.
2. Drop the timetable onto the page or choose it from the device.
3. Check the filename and size.
4. Choose Send schedule and keep the page open until it says Schedule received.

The upload token is an opaque secret. It is stored by MySched only as a hash and is claimed atomically when an upload begins. After a successful upload, the same link cannot be used again.

If validation or storage fails before completion, the claim is released so a valid retry can work. If the page says the link is expired or already used, contact support for a fresh link.

What happens next

The MySched team checks and imports the file. The preview page currently shows:

• the term label;
• the original filename; and
• the submission status.

It does not yet show every imported meeting. The school should use the separate review material provided by the team to verify course, section, day, time, room, and instructor details before confirming.

Confirm the term

When the status is Verifying, use the confirmation action on the private preview page. Confirmation marks the submission approved. Publication and active-term selection are still completed by the MySched team.

An expired preview link fails closed and does not reveal the submission. If your school receives a newer link, use that one and ask support whether the earlier link is still active.

Upload problems

• Over 15 MB: export a smaller file or contact support before splitting it.
• Unsupported type: use one of the formats above; do not only rename the extension.
• Network interruption: retry the same link. If it was already consumed, request a new one.
• Wrong file uploaded: contact support immediately; do not send a second file through an unrelated link.

Next steps

• Data and security: private storage and access boundaries.
• Term updates: replace or correct a timetable.
