9.2 Apply Course Catalog Changes to Student Enrollment

Purpose: Use this document as a reference when applying changes to courses and adjust class associations with student enrollment.

Audience: Course/Class builders, Records staff.

You must have at least one of these local college managed security roles:

  • ZC CM Course Catalog
  • ZD CM Course Catalog
  • ZD CM Course and Class Inquiry
  • ZD CM Local Configuration
  • ZD FWL View Cnt Calc
  • ZZ CM Course Catalog
  • ZZ CM Local Configuration
  • ZZ FWL Contract Calc

If you need assistance with the above security roles, please contact your local college supervisor or IT Admin to request role access.

There will be occasions when students are enrolled in classes, and changes need to be made. For example, the amount of units or the grading scheme has changed for a particular course.

One solution is to build new class sections after the changes are complete at the course level. Then, you remove the students from the incorrect section into the new correct section through quick enroll, enrollment request, or block enrollment--resulting in additional steps. The process described in this document requires fewer steps but yields the same results.
