How do I add an event to my calendar as a student?

You can add a personal reminder to your own Calendar for an upcoming event.

Open Calendar

In Global Navigation, click the Calendar link.

Add Event

Add Event

Click any date on the calendar to add an event [1]. Or, click the arrows next to the month name to navigate to a different month [2] and select a date.

If you don't want to manually locate the date, you can click the Add icon [3].

Add Event Details

Add event details

Enter a title for the event [1].

Depending on how you added your event, the date may be populated for you. If not, enter a date in the date field [2].

The calendar times may also be populated for you in the From and To fields [3]. To edit, use the dropdown or enter the start and end time for your event. To create an all-day event, leave the From and To fields blank so there is no start and end time for your event.

In the Frequency drop-down menu, you can set recurring calendar events [4].

If a location is required, enter a location for the event [5].

Submit Event

Submit Event

To add additional details to your event, click the More Options button [1]. You can use the Rich Content Editor to add a description or resource links.
