section Registration Control

Use this section of the page to create the groups of sections (CRNs) to be used in section registration. The detail information for each CRN is displayed for reference from the SSBSECT table.

Enrollment status and time conflict messages are displayed by CRN. CRNs in a section are considered to be mandatory for registration unless the student has add and drop permission, or the Enrollment Optional indicator is checked for the course within the section.

Credit and billing hours can be assigned to the CRN if they are specified as variable hours. For example, if a CRN has three to five credit hours, you can change the value to be specifically four credit hours for use in the section of courses. The grade mode can also be changed.

Note: If a section included in the section Registration Control section of the page is an open learning course, the instructional method and registration from and to dates are displayed.
