The registration process is aimed at ensuring that students sign up for courses that meet the requirements for their academic program for the year. These requirements include:

During the registration period, students see check boxes next to the course titles on the list of courses page for their academic programme. They can make a selection by ticking the boxes and adding the courses to their Course wishlist which they can view and edit at any time during the registration period. The course can go through up to three statuses:

A student's Course wishlist shows:

When a Course adviser wants to check their students wishlists -

  1. - they first see a summary showing their Course registration group, total students,total pending, total accepted and total declined courses.
  2. - they can then move on to see each student's list of courses along with a dropdown select box of status options which they can change, provided it has remained unlocked (by the Faculty officer)

A Faculty officer see a list of their Course advisers and can view the list of registration groups for each of them. In addition to the status options, they also can Confirm the registration or lock/unlock any of the courses. Locking a course means that the status can not be changed by the Course adviser and the student may not delete it.

After satisfying all the rquirements a student's courses are validated and they are registered for the courses they have been accepted for. Now, when a secretary is allocating students to course groups, only those who have been registered will be available for selection.

At the end of the registration process, all wishlists are deactivated and no checkboxes are seen on the course lists.
