Every term the students face problems with building the timetables. We need to be awake after midnight to do the enrollment and try to get a less bad Block. All blocks are well constructed to waste the students time and do not provide a pleasant academic environment or routine. Progress Campus is always crowded with students waiting hours for their classes. It creates another issue to stress the students who have to be in an unhealthy environment.
The programs are full time, but the student has the right and the wish of a balanced life and work 20 hours if needed.
A variety of solutions:
- random schedule or score based or alternative format of enrollment to avoid the stress of the timetable building after midnight
- If the blocks have a reason to exist, the options should be more rational and fully working in one shift with eventual exceptions.
A list of a more rational way to build the timetables and the enrollment has to be implemented. The actual blocks have to finish.
It is a petition to the academic administration of Centennial College.

I completely agree because I have kids and it is pretty hard to balance life, kids and studies with this timetable.
We need to pay high tuition fees and this college do not guves us the time to work with the availabe timetables. Its so messy and incongruent.
Build the simplified timetable!
The timetables have always been ridiculously made. There's no room for any social life for the students. There's no time for anything cuz if there is a little bit time available then that also goes in completing the assignments and what not. I feel like I'm trapped in a cage due to this timetable. On the other hand, other colleges are much better than Centennial as their timetables are less and even the fees is reasonable. What's the use of coming to Canada by paying this much fees to the college and not having any free time to explore the place. There's no balance in my life since I joined this college. Can't give time to family or wife nor to myself. The college must and must take an action regarding this.

We need a flexible schedule. It takes 2 hours to reach college, and having such long breaks between classes does not really help. Working with college becomes a task.
