The present invention relates to a broadband wireless access system, and more particularly to a method for efficiently communicating scheduling information about a broadcasting message to a terminal. The method for transmitting the broadcasting message in the broadband wireless access system comprises the steps of: transmitting a first map including scheduling information for at least one broadcasting message transmitted within a predetermined transmission unit to a terminal; and broadcasting the message through a resource region indicated by the scheduling information. In the method, it is desirable that the first map is an extended map of a second map including non-user specific control information.
