TritonGPT Class Planner
Learn how to use the new TritonGPT Class Planner to help plan your schedule each quarter.
About the new planner tool
-
The enrollment tools you've previously used (WebReg, the Schedule of Classes, and EASy) will change starting this summer and as a result, the existing class planner tool will no longer be available.
-
The TritonGPT Class Planner is a specialized version of TritonGPT that is focused on class scheduling, developed to assist you in planning potential class schedules.
-
Course numbers and section codes follow a specific format in TSS. Every course number includes a hyphen between the subject and the number, and lower-division courses include leading zeroes. For example: MATH-018, CHEM-006A.
Returning student? Course numbers you used previously map directly to TSS's format — for example, MATH 18 is now MATH-018.
The TritonGPT Class Planner helps you create class schedules based on the courses and preferences you provide. Because it does not have access to your academic record, degree requirements, or program information, it should not be used as a substitute for academic advising.
Access the TritonGPT Class Planner and be sure to select the Class Planner Assistant (not the main UC San Diego Assistant).
Important: The TritonGPT Class Planner is currently in beta. While it can help you explore scheduling options, the Schedule of Classes in the Triton Student System is the official source for course offerings, schedules, and availability.

What the system is intended to do
- Search for classes by instructor, room, department, day/time, final exam time, global university requirements (e.g., AHI, Diversity, JTCCE, etc.)
- Create a schedule using a provided set of mixed parameters
- Display the schedule in an easy-to-use format, including a visual schedule and calendar exports (such as .gcal and .ical)
- Display information about waitlists
- Dynamically build a suggested schedule based on progressive prompting
What the system cannot do
- Incorporate major or college requirements
- Provide advising or advice
- Provide information that is unrelated to the Schedule of Classes
- Tell you what classes to take
- Schedule you directly in classes

Suggested prompts
- I need to take HUM 2, CHEM 6A, and MATH 10A in Spring 2026. Can you build me a schedule? [Input the classes you need. The tool cannot tell you which classes to take.]

- What classes is [instructor name] teaching in Fall 2026?
- What Ethnic Studies classes are offered in FA26?

Be sure to include the term you're asking about (Fall 2026, Winter 2027), and avoid prompts that are too vague.
Also, remember that the tool is limited to answering questions about class scheduling. Non-scheduling questions will not get a useful response.
New! UC San Diego Class Planner App
Looking for a planner without AI?
UC San Diego now offers the Class Planner app, a non-AI scheduling tool that allows you to explore courses and build potential class schedules using official Schedule of Classes data.
