Where is my Royal Holloway timetable?

Your personal timetable lives at webtimetables.royalholloway.ac.uk. Sign in with your college username (the abcd123 format) and password, then choose My Timetable from the menu on the left. It is a separate system from Moodle and from the student portal, which is why it is easy to lose track of.

Can I add my Royal Holloway timetable to my phone calendar?

Yes. The web timetable can produce a calendar subscription link. Choose My Timetable, select Calendar Download under "View Timetable As", then View Timetable, and you will be given a link for iOS and Outlook or for Android. RHUL Mobile does this step for you and also matches every room code to a pin on the campus map.

Why is my Royal Holloway timetable empty?

Two usual reasons. You will not see a complete timetable until you are registered on all your modules and have been allocated to teaching activities, so early in the year it fills in gradually. Outside term there is genuinely nothing to show: a 2025/26 timetable runs from late September to early April, so looking over the summer returns an empty week.

Is the Royal Holloway timetable the same as Moodle?

No. Moodle holds your course materials, submissions and grades. The web timetable holds when and where your teaching happens. They are separate logins on separate systems, and your timetable is not shown inside Moodle.

Royal Holloway Timetable: How to Find Yours

Q: What do the Royal Holloway room codes mean?

A room code is the building abbreviation, a hyphen, then the room. EWD-1-04 is the Emily Wilding Davison Building, first floor, room 04. HORTON-HLT2 is Horton Building, Lecture Theatre 2. INTER-005 PC LAB is the International Building, room 005. Common prefixes include ARTS, BEDFORD, BOURNE, EWD, FOUNDERS, HORTON, INTER, McCREA, MOORE, QUEENS, SHILLING, WINDSOR and WOODLANDS.

Royal Holloway keeps your teaching timetable on its own system, separate from Moodle and separate from the student portal. That is the single biggest reason people cannot find it. This guide covers where it lives, how to read the room codes, and how to stop looking it up in a browser every morning.

Where your timetable actually is

Go to webtimetables.royalholloway.ac.uk and sign in with your college username - the abcd123 format, not your email address - and your usual password. Once you are in, choose My Timetable from the menu on the left. The landing page after sign-in is a general information page, so if it looks like nothing happened, that is why: you still have one more click to make.

A few things worth knowing before you assume something is broken:

You will not see a complete timetable until you are registered on all your modules and have been allocated to teaching activities. Early in the year it fills in gradually rather than appearing all at once.
Outside term there is nothing to show. A 2025/26 timetable runs from late September to early April, so checking in July returns an empty week - that is correct, not a fault.
The timetables are live. Rooms and times do change during term, which is exactly why screenshotting your week in September is a bad idea.

How to read Royal Holloway room codes

Room codes are the building abbreviation, a hyphen, then the room itself. EWD-1-04 is the Emily Wilding Davison Building, first floor, room 04. HORTON-HLT2 is Horton Building, Lecture Theatre 2. INTER-005 PC LAB is the International Building. The building half is the part that matters when you are walking across campus with eight minutes to spare.

The prefixes you will meet most often:

ARTS - Arts Building
BEDFORD - Bedford Building
BOURNE / BOURNEAX - Bourne Building and Bourne Annexe
EWD - Emily Wilding Davison Building
FOUNDERS - Founder's Building
HORTON - Horton Building
INTER - International Building
McCREA - McCrea Building
MOORE / MOOREAX - Moore Building and Moore Annexe
QUEENS - Queen's Building
SHILLING - Shilling Building, and SHILLING-AUD the Auditorium
WINDSOR - Windsor Building
WOODLANDS - Woodlands

If you are not sure where a building is, the campus map has every one of them with walking directions from wherever you are standing.

Getting it onto your phone

The web timetable can produce a calendar subscription link rather than a page you have to keep revisiting. On the My Timetable page, choose Calendar Download under "View Timetable As", then press View Timetable. You will be offered a link for iOS and Outlook, and another for Android. Subscribing means changes to your teaching follow through automatically instead of going stale.

That link is personal to you and does not expire, so treat it like a password - anyone who has it can read your full timetable and your name.

Doing it in RHUL Mobile instead

RHUL Mobile handles the whole sequence. You sign in on Royal Holloway's own page - the app never sees your password - and it walks the pages, finds your calendar link and imports your teaching for the year. From then on your lectures and seminars sit alongside what else is on around campus.

The part a calendar subscription cannot do is the room. RHUL Mobile matches each room code to the building on the campus map, so EWD-1-04 becomes the Emily Wilding Davison Building with walking directions, and the room number stays visible for once you are inside. You can view your week a day, a week or a month at a time, and it works offline, which matters when you are checking where you are meant to be while crossing campus.

Timetable or Moodle?

They are different systems and it is worth being clear about which you want. Moodle holds course materials, submissions and grades. The web timetable holds when and where your teaching happens. Separate logins, separate sites, and your timetable is not shown inside Moodle. If you are looking for a reading list you want Moodle; if you are looking for a room number you want the timetable.
