Cross Reference Residency and Delivery Type

One of the biggest user/student errors we are seeing in registration is choosing the wrong delivery type or none at all. Here are our thoughts on reducing the overhead from the registrar's office.

  1. We would like to make delivery type a required field.
  2. We would like to cross reference a student's Residency Type and the Delivery Type so that
    1. If they match, ex: If Residency=Local and Class Delivery Type=Residential, then no alert
    2. If they mismatch, ex: Residency=Local and Class Delivery Type=Video Conferencing or Residency=Distance and Class Delivery Type=Residential, then an alert is given to the student on registration
    3. If the student continues with a mismatch, the registrar is notified when granting approval

Is this possible? Reasonable? Helpful to others?

Hello,

Hello,

Yes, this is possible.

Yes, this is Reasonable.

To my knowledge NTS is the only school that is using these fields regularly, but this is a area that could be very confusing or overlooked and thus I think it would be very helpful to others.

This will be difficult to do.  Not out of the question, but this is very custom to you.  So, will be low on the list.

THis will be included in the

THis will be included in the next release.

  • Under Academics > Administration, there will be a new option for "Registration Rules"
  • You can add the combinations of delivery method and residency that you wish to give a warning or error.  
  • You can enter your own message that will display if the conditions are met.
  • You can also enter whether it should then prevent a student, an advisor, and/or the registrar from proceeding.

I will also include these notes in the details of the next release when it is ready for you to use.
