Overview

The Schedule Students feature allows administrators to enroll one or more students into one or multiple course sections for the selected academic year and marking period. Multiple students and course sections can be selected simultaneously, making it easy to perform bulk scheduling while reviewing course availability and scheduling details before confirming.

Once scheduling is complete, openSIS displays a confirmation report and provides the option to export the scheduling results to Excel.
