SIS/Manage Your Enrollment - Class Permissions
The Class Permissions page provides you the opportunity to give a student the ability to enroll for a certain section of a course as well as set/change an expiration date for their enrollment in that section.
Types of Class Permissions
There are two types of class permissions. A section can only have Student-Specific OR Generated Permissions.
-
Student-Specific Permissions -These are associated with a specific student. The student name and/or ID must be obtained to enter this student's permission in the system.
- Generated Permissions - These are set up and assigned to any student; however, there is not tracking to identify which and to whom Generated Permission numbers have been assigned. These numbers may get lost or used by the incorrect person; therefore, it is recommended to keep a written log of who is issued what number or use the Permissions Comments Tab.
You are merely giving students permission to enroll. They still need to take action to enroll themselves. When you notify the student to enroll, give them the Class Nbr to make enrolling easier. Once a student enrolls using the student specific permission, they may drop and re-enroll through their Expiration Date.
Permissions Overview
- Something about dates and deadlines?
- Permissions may override:
- Course Requisites
- Instructor or Department Consent
- Class Enrollment Limits
- Room Capacity
- Be sure the room can accommodate the total number of students.
-
Initially new sections default as Student-Specific Permissions. After that, the term roll process copies the current setting from the previous like term. To turn Student Specific Permissions off, contact your curricular representative to uncheck Student Specific Permissions here: >Curriculum Management >Schedule of Classes >Maintain Schedule of Classes |Basic|.
-
Permissions should only be entered on an active, enrollment section.
-
Members combined sections will need to set up their own permissions.
-
The expiration date defaults to the add deadline of the session.
-
Once a student used the permission, it may not be deleted and the expiration date cannot be changed.
-
You can view class permissions for any course in any department.
Section Changes
- For students already enrolled in a course, departments should enter class permissions for students requesting a section change. If the Add Deadline has passed, the student’s Expiration Date will need to be adjusted. The student can then use the ‘Swap’ feature through Web Enrollment to complete the section change. Using class permissions to accomplish section changes will be available through the Drop Deadline of the session the course is offered.
