Approve & Deny Course Requests

Online signup managers can manage course requests and recommendations for students.

  • Course Requests are made by the student or family, and may include additional notes for consideration.

  • Course Recommendations are made by staff on behalf of the student.

To get started:

  1. Navigate to Academics.

  2. Choose Scheduling and Requests and recommendations list.

  3. Choose columns and edit Filters as needed.

  1. Select the Edit icon beside a student name.

  2. Under Requests, review the following:

    • Course

    • Preference
      The preferred priority of the course. Lower numbers indicate higher priority.

    • Start term
      Choose which term the student will take the course, or choose Any term if the student can take it in any term

      Note: The course length needs to be considered when selecting a Start Term. For example, if your school has 2 terms and a course has a length of 2, the course would need to start in the first term.

    • Terms
      Number of consecutive terms the course runs

    • Alternate
      Add or update an alternate course as well as its start term and length.

      Note: Course request managers can add more than one alternate request when adding a main request. This helps to ensure that students have all the necessary requests.
