Holidays and Breaks

Syncing your course schedule to your calendar will not remove UB holidays or breaks. Courses will continue to display during spring break, fall break, and other days when classes are not in session.

Creating Personal To-Dos

Checklists help you stay organized by keeping all your important tasks in one place. Navigate provides pre-loaded “to-dos” to guide you through key steps each semester, and you can also create your own personal to-dos to stay on track.

1. Open Navigate on your desktop browser or the Navigate Student mobile app and select “Checklists.”

  • Here you will find pre-loaded to-dos designed to help keep you on track each term.
