• If you search by abbreviated name, the search retrieves courses that begin with the characters you typed. For example, type 'math' to retrieve all abbreviated names that begin with the letters math.

• Leave blank to retrieve all courses.

Click Retrieve. The course records are displayed according to your search criteria.

  • A list of students who meet the specified criteria is displayed. The list can be re-sorted.
  • If more students are retrieved than can be displayed on one page, you can page through the list.

If you click for a record in the grid, the fields are displayed below the grid in a free-form format where you can add or change information.

The default view in the grid is basic course information indicated by ⇒ Crs Nbr in the free-form area.

You can modify the view in the grid by clicking the Options, Scheduling, Course Codes & Credits, Elem/Misc, PEIMS, and HR/GA headers in the free-form area.

For example, if you click PEIMS, only PEIMS information is displayed in the grid. The PEIMS header is displayed as ⇒ PEIMS indicating that it is the current view.

Courses and credits that are not part of the graduation plan, as indicated by the service ID, are indicated with the red exclamation mark icon .
