PLEASE NOTE:

Normal completion time is 3 - 5 business days upon receipt. It may take longer if the information is incomplete or requires staff consultation to determine the course layout, tool selections, or other unique information.

Completion may take up to 10 business days during peak periods (1 week prior to and 1 week after the start of the quarter and during finals) due to staff workload at the beginning of the quarter.

For more information, please view the current WebCT Service Level Agreement.
