Adding Courses to a Student Schedule
(Walk-in)
|
Create and maintain a primary class schedule for each student in your school. Throughout the year, you might need to make schedule changes for existing students, or create new schedules for students who enroll at your school during the year. There are two ways to maintain student schedules: manual scheduling and auto-scheduling. Manual scheduling is section-specific and allows you to pick specific sections in which to enroll the student, overriding the system-defined schedule if one exists. Auto scheduling is course-specific. You enter a student's request for specific course(s). The system then automatically schedules the student for the sections that best fits his or her schedule. |
