Find your university timetable link

To bring your timetable into Booost, you need a link to it in iCal or .ics format. Where that lives varies between institutions, but there are a few places worth checking before you ask anyone.

Check your university email calendar first

Most universities give students a Microsoft 365 or Google account, and many push timetabled teaching straight into that calendar. If your lectures already appear there, you don't need a separate timetable link at all – connect that calendar instead:

• Connect an Outlook calendar
• Connect a Google calendar

This is the quickest route, and it works for a lot of students.

Look for an export or subscribe option

On your timetable page, look for anything labelled 'Subscribe', 'Export', 'Add to calendar', 'iCal' or 'Calendar feed'. These are often tucked into a menu, or at the bottom of the page rather than beside the timetable itself.

Check your virtual learning environment

If your university uses Canvas, Moodle or Blackboard, each has its own calendar with an export or subscribe link – usually under the calendar's own settings or menu. Sometimes teaching appears there even when the timetabling system offers nothing.

If you still can't find one

Get in touch with us – this is genuinely useful to hear about. We're always working out how to connect timetables from different institutions, and every one we look into helps us help the next student at your university.

Tell us which institution you're at and where you've already looked, and we'll take it from there.

If your timetable can't be shared at all

Some institutions keep timetables inside their own system with no way to share them. You can still build yours in Booost by adding your teaching as repeating events – set each one up once, and it's there for the term.
