Disclaimer
Rosmini College's timetable is student-driven and a new timetable is generated each year based on student subject selection. Unfortunately, while we do our best to avoid them, timetabling clashes may still occur and a few students may be required to choose an alternative subject option.
The 2024 timetable, including the number of classes in each subject and staffing allocations, is created based on student selections made in 2023. Because of this, changing subjects at the beginning of 2024 may not be possible. Please, make your subject choices carefully.
