Create Enrollment Permissions

You can give specific students permission to enroll in classes that require departmental or instructor consent. Two types of permissions are available:

  • General (any student can use the permission)
  • Student Specific

General Permissions

1. If you haven't already done so, navigate to Curriculum Management > Maintain Schedule of Classes and search for the class for which you want to add general student permission.

2. Click the Enrollment Cntrl tab, and in the Enrollment Control title bar use the arrows to navigate to the class section whose access you want to control.

3. In the Add Consent field, select either Department Consent Required or Instructor Consent Required. The example below shows Instructor Consent Required.

What the Student Sees

When issuing a student specific permission number, a permission number is NOT generated. The student's Empl ID is the permission number. As such, during enrollment the student does not enter a permission number to enroll in the class. The student simply clicks Next at this step of the enrollment process.
