Procedure to Add or Edit Catalogs, Categories, and Courses
If you want to control the order that Anthology Student uses when a course appears more than once in the course fulfillment order used for the degree progress audit (DPA), you should configure the orders for the following in your course list.
-
Categories
-
Courses
-
Elective pool courses
The order you specify here for the categories is the order they will be displayed on the DPA. Within the categories, Anthology Student displays:
-
First, the required courses in the order specified
-
Then, the elective pools in the order specified
When you add categories, courses, and elective pool courses to existing course lists, Anthology Student automatically assigns the next available number in the order.
For example, if you have 2 existing categories for a program versions and you:
-
Did not specify an order, Anthology Student assigns the new category to 1
-
Did specify an order with the categories in 1 and 2 in the order, Anthology Student assigns the new category to 3
If you want, you can still change order.
You cannot modify the entry for the default catalog (Default - None); however, you can associate a category or add courses from a category.
You must add at least one category for a catalog. Once you add the category, Anthology Student automatically saves the new catalog and category. If you change the entry for a category, you must save those changes using the Save button.

If You Edit the Course List for a Program Version or Area of Study
