Changing Enrollment and Room Capacity

The Enrollment Capacity field defines how many students can be enrolled in the section on a first-come, first-served basis, and is enforced during online course selection. If you do not want the system to enforce an enrollment capacity, or you are not sure what enrollment capacity you want, enter a value of 999 in this field.

Note: While a value of 999 is valid during the pre-registration period, it will have to be changed to an actual enrollment capacity when the time comes to request classroom assignments.

The requested Room Capacity field should contain a value equal to or greater than the Enrollment Capacity. This field is used to determine the size of the room that must be scheduled for the section.

To change enrollment and room capacities:

If you are not already in the Schedule of Classes page group, access the Schedule of Classes page group.

Click the Enrollment Cntrl tab to display the Enrollment Control page.

If necessary, use the navigation controls in the Enrollment Control header bar to move to the desired section.

Make sure the Requested Room Capacity field contains a value equal to or greater than the Enrollment Capacity. This value will be used to determine classroom assignments.

If the Enrollment Capacity is not correct for this section, type over the existing value with the correct value, which must be greater than 0. If the enrollment capacity is unknown, or if you do not want to limit enrollment, enter a value of 999. Press the Tab key to move to the next field.


Important! Students will not be able to enroll in the section once this number of students have enrolled. If necessary, you can increase or decrease the Enrollment Capacity as needed during the enrollment period. However, to know when such changes are needed, you must monitor the enrollment totals for each section of each course on a daily basis during the enrollment period.

If this is the only change required for this class, click the Save button. If there are more changes for this class, click on the tab of the next page where you need to make changes. To continue with the next class in the search list, click the Next in List button.
