How to enrol a group of students simultaneously in a course?
Usually students enrol in a course themselves, but sometimes this does not work. This can happen due to various reasons, for example:
- the registration deadline has already passed;
- the student wants to take more than the allowed 15 ECTS of courses in a period (then follow this manual up to and including step 9 and thereafter see the manual “How to enrol a student in a course, who wants to take more than 15 ECTS in a period?");
- the student is not properly enrolled in a study, for example because the tuition fees have not been paid (if you suspect this, check this by searching the student via Student Search, step 4 of the manual “How to enrol a student in a course - via student search?”).
After approval from the course coordinator, the secretariat (or a course coordinator with Osiris Basic rights) can still place a student who has not registered for a course on the list of participants, even if the enrolment deadline for the student has passed. The advantage is that the student will then automatically have access to the Brightspace environment of this course.
