Managing Course Requests

...

Course requests are managed using the Requests Panel, which opens on the right hand side of the student's Schedule.

...

• A complete schedule (100%, top number is the same as bottom number) is green.

• A schedule that is between 67% and 99% completed is yellow.

• A schedule that is between 34% and 66% completed is orange.

• A schedule that is between 0% and 33% completed is red.

Request Types

...

Each request is assigned a request type - Required, Elected or Alternate. These are used in the Schedule Wizard logic when placing courses sections for students. The assigned types can be changed as desired.

...

Course requests made by or for a student are assigned a request type of Required, Elected or Alternate. These are request types only, separate from and not related to the types of courses being selected.

• R - Required: Required course requests are entered by school personnel, not by the student. Requests entered via the Request Wizard display as required requests. Students cannot drop or modify a required request without staff intervention. The Student must have a request for this course. 

• E - Elected: Elected course requests may be entered by school personnel or students. Students can choose a course they wish to take in the next school year, remove  requests for courses marked as E, and change course requests from E to A. The Student would like to request this course.

• A - Alternate: Alternate course requests may be entered by school personnel or students. Alternate requests display in the order that they were entered. Alternate requests are not automatically loaded by the Walk-In-Scheduler or Schedule Wizard. Instead, students must be manually placed into an alternate course when other course requests could not be met. The Student would like to request this course as a second option if another course request cannot be fulfilled.
