For universities
StudyNow at your university
Students plan their semester themselves – you give them the key dates. As a file they take over with a single tap instead of typing sessions and deadlines.
What students get out of it
- The semester at a glanceCourses, sessions and deadlines in one place, with calendar, widget and reminders.
- Keep at it earlyAfter each session, a quick note of how it went. Many small entries add up to a picture – long before the exam.
- Miss nothingRegistration and withdrawal periods, submissions and exams sit next to the courses, with reminders.
Three ways to the data
All three are .studynow files: JSON with an open, documented structure. No interface project, no access to your systems.
Programme framework
From the student office: semester and lecture period, registration and withdrawal periods, lecture-free weeks, university-wide dates and deadlines. Shared via a link, it can be reloaded later – corrections reach everyone.
Course list
All courses of a degree programme with session series, single sessions and deadlines. Students pick the ones they take.
Semester template
Without a file from the student office: whoever has set up a semester in the app once – lecturer, student council, tutorial – shares it as a template. Without ratings, without anything personal.
In three steps
Write the file – easiest by copying and adapting a sample file –, put it on a web server via HTTPS, share the link.
Tapping this link opens the app with a preview:
studynow://import?url=https://your-university.edu/path/informatik-bsc-wise2627.studynowThe file can also be sent directly, for example by e-mail or as a download on the learning platform. Only via the link, though, can the app reload it later.
Sample files
All data in them are sample values, not the dates of a real university. The files are in German.
