Question 1

Is Syllabus2Calendar affiliated with TCU?

Accepted Answer

Syllabus2Calendar is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Texas Christian University.

Question 2

What exactly do I get?

Accepted Answer

A Semester Playbook PDF (hardest weeks, highest-impact coursework, workload heatmap, strategy) and a calendar file with every deadline and study session, reminders included.

Question 3

What is the Semester Playbook?

Accepted Answer

A one-page PDF built from your syllabi: which assignments deserve the most attention, the weeks work stacks up, when to start your biggest items, and how to spend your study hours.

Question 4

How do you know which weeks are hardest?

Accepted Answer

We total each week's deadlines and the study time they need, scaled by grade weight, and surface the peak weeks so you can start earlier.

Question 5

What file types can I upload?

Accepted Answer

PDF, DOCX, TXT, JPG, JPEG, and PNG. You can also paste syllabus text directly if you only have it as plain text.

Question 6

Can I upload multiple syllabi?

Accepted Answer

Yes — upload all of your courses at once, up to 10 files per session. Pricing is $4.99 for a Single Course (1 syllabus upload), or $19.99 for Full Semester (up to 6 courses).

Question 7

What happens if something is read incorrectly?

Accepted Answer

You review everything before you pay. Every item is editable, and anything uncertain is flagged next to the exact syllabus excerpt it came from.

Question 8

How are study sessions created?

Accepted Answer

By grade impact: heavy exams and projects get more sessions spread earlier, homework gets one work block, readings stay light. Your preferences decide where the blocks land.

Question 9

Which calendar applications are supported?

Accepted Answer

Anything that supports the ICS standard, including Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, and Microsoft Outlook. Import instructions for each are shown on the export step.

Question 10

Do reminders come with the events?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every event carries its own reminders, so alerts work the moment you import. You can change the reminder level or turn it off in preferences.

Question 11

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. There is no sign-up, no password, and no dashboard. The whole process happens in one session.

Question 12

How long are my files stored?

Accepted Answer

Uploaded files and extracted text are deleted automatically — after 24 hours if you do not complete a purchase, and after 7 days for a purchased plan so you can return and re-download it.

Question 13

Can I edit the calendar before exporting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can edit deadlines, add missing items, move or resize study sessions, regenerate the study plan, and filter by course before you export.

Question 14

Is this a subscription?

Accepted Answer

No. It is a one-time payment for the semester plan you build in that session. There is nothing to cancel.

Question 15

What happens when a syllabus does not list a specific due date?

Accepted Answer

The item is kept and marked "Date not announced" instead of being given an invented date. It stays in your review list, and no calendar event is created until you enter a date.
