Connect, Change, or Clear Connected Enrollments
You can use the Enrollments page to connect two enrollments (for example, student seeking dual degrees). Institutions connect enrollments so that they can confer degrees. For example, an institution can award:
-
An associate degree for students in a bachelor’s degree program
-
Award certificates to students enrolled in an associate degree
You can also use the page to change or clear connected enrollments.
Connected enrollments will aggregate credits from a parent term shared across connected enrollments when determining or assigning an Enrollment Status.
Note: The aggregation only occurs while the system date falls within the parent term dates and at least 1 credit must be taken on the primary enrollment.
With connected enrollments, your institution can also:
-
Process a student based transcript by degree level for connected enrollments
-
Charge tuition to the individual enrollment where courses are taken so that revenue is assigned to the correct business unit
-
Eliminate double billing of fees (Charge fee by student instead of enrollment.)
-
Prepare a Detail Registration Bill for connected enrollments in batch
-
Prepare a Summary Registration Bill for connected enrollments in batch and from the student ledger card
-
Report unduplicated counts of connected enrollments for IPEDS 12-Month Unduplicated Count report section of the Population Analysis / IPEDS Enrollment Survey
-
Store connected enrollment history in the database that it can be used in custom views
When you connect enrollments, you must select the default enrollment. The default enrollment:
-
Controls which enrollment is displayed on forms and in Portal (the default)
-
Allows separate system statuses for enrollments that will be conferred so that there is no duplication in Anthology Student reports
For example, if you have a student and you want to confer an associate degree for students in a bachelor’s degree program, you can select the bachelor's degree as the default.
-
Financial Aid is then packaged on the default enrollment.
-
Billing can be done against the default enrollment.
-
The default enrollment is used when calculating SAP.
Note: Refer to Using the Connected Enrollment Billing Option on the Billing Method Configuration if you receive the message "Billing entries exist on the default enrollment as a result of course registrations in the current connected enrollment setup. Enrollment changes may results in incorrect billing entries and require manual adjustments."
If you want to:
