What Astra Schedule is

Astra Schedule is Ad Astra’s academic, event, and room scheduling software for colleges and universities. For course planning, it uses historical enrollment patterns to help build schedules and manage sections across departments. Faculty assignment recommendations draw on instructor availability, teaching experience, and credit-hour workload information. Event teams can collect requests and resource needs, route approvals, and manage user permissions. Room tools check for conflicts and double-booking, with filters and seat-fill visibility to support space assignments. A unified, color-coded calendar provides real-time visibility into academic and event spaces; public calendars can be embedded on websites, and mobile event scheduling lets users update event details from any location. Reports cover schedule effectiveness, space use, faculty assignments, events, and course scheduling patterns. Additional capabilities include event billing and invoicing, registration and payments, rentals, and final exam scheduling. Ad Astra lists integrations with Jenzabar, Ellucian Banner and Colleague, Workday, and Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. The platform is hosted on AWS. The listed platforms are Android, iOS, and web. Pricing is available by contacting Ad Astra, and the product page offers a demo request.
