Students: share availability for group project meetings
Group projects die in the "I'm free after 5 except Wednesday" loop. If your classes and work shifts live on Google Calendar, you can generate a clean list instead of reconstructing the week from memory.
Paste into the group chat. For two or three people, merging lists by eye is fine; for larger groups, switch to a poll.
Example GroupMe message

I can meet to finish the slides. Here's my upcoming availability (EST): Tue (9/30): 4-7pm Wed (10/1): 12-2pm, 6-8pm Thu (10/2): 5-8pm Library or Zoom both fine. ~90 minutes.

Practical tips
- 1
Put classes on the calendar first
If lectures are missing, the tool will happily offer those hours as free.
- 2
Agree on a timezone for remote groups
Online classes span regions — pick one zone for the thread before comparing lists.
- 3
Use When2Meet when the group is large
ShareAvailability publishes one person's times. Five-plus teammates usually need a grid.
Frequently asked questions
Do classmates need Google accounts?
No. They only read your text and reply.
Is there a student discount?
The tool is free for everyone — no student plan required.
Can this find a time that works for the whole group?
It only shows your free times. Compare lists or use a poll for true multi-person overlap.
