Drop courses from a student's schedule

You can drop courses from a student’s schedule at any time during the year.

To drop courses from a student’s schedule:

1. Log on to the School or Build view.
2. Click the Student tab.
3. Search for and select the student.
4. Click the Schedule side-tab. The student’s current schedule appears.
5. On the Schedule side-tab, click Workspace. The Workspace displays the student’s schedule.
6. In the top-right corner of the page, click List view or Matrix view.

7. Your school might allow you to make changes to a schedule effective for a past or future. The ability to make past and future scheduling changes is available in the School view only.

   Note: If your school allows past and future schedule changes, and you want your schedule change to be effective on a past date, do not specify a future date on the Workspace page. When posting the change, you will be able to set the effective date to a past date when in the School view.

   Note: If your school allows past and future schedule changes, you will see Workspace Mode at the top of the page when in the School view. If your school allows future schedule changes, but does not allow past schedule changes, you will not see Workspace Mode at the top of the page. Instead, you will see "View and make changes as of" at the top of the page when in the School view.

1. To make the change effective today or on a past date, do one of the following:
• If you see Workspace Mode at the top of the page, select Today:
  
  
  
• If you see View and make changes as of at the top of the page, or if you see neither Workspace Mode nor View and make changes as of, continue to step 8:
  
  

  Note: You will enter the past date in Step 9.

  Note: If you do not see Workspace Mode or View and make changes as of at the top of the page, your school does not allow future schedule changes. See your Aspen system administrator.

2. To make the change effective on a future date, do one of the following:
• If you see Workspace Mode at the top of the page, select Future.
• If you see View and make changes as of at the top of the page, use the date picker to select the date you want the change to take effect.

  Note: If you do not see Workspace Mode or View and make changes as of at the top of the page, your school does not allow future schedule changes. See your Aspen system administrator.

8. Do one of the following:
• In the List view, select the course, and then click Drop.
• In the Matrix view, select the course on the matrix, and then click .

9. Click Post to post the new schedule. If your school allows past-dated changes to the schedule, and you have not selected a future date on the Workspace page, the "All changes take effect on" pick list appears. Do nothing for the schedule change to take effect today, or click to select a date in the past (within the school year) for the change to take effect on that date. The changes you made are now the student’s active schedule. If the changes are for a future date, the schedule changes will be made automatically on that date.

   Note: You might be prompted to keep or discard transcript records for this course. If you choose Keep, you must enter a final grade for the course. If you choose Discard, the student's records for this course will be removed from their transcript.

10. You can also do one of the following (optional):
• Add a course.
• Click Revert to revert to the old schedule (the student’s schedule after the last post).
