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

      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.

      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.

    • Change the Request status to Approved, and add any notes.

    • Start term
