Process a batch drop based on an uploaded spreadsheet of students

Deleting enrollment records impacts billing because without an enrollment record a student's bill will not be adjusted. Campus Cafe recommends deleting records only if billing adjustments are not required.

This process removes students from a class or classes based on an uploaded spreadsheet. The spreadsheet must contain the following columns ID_NUMBER, COURSE_NUMBER and COURSE_SECTION and be in .xlsx, .xls or .csv format. A pre-filled template can be found here:

This process will only drop the enrollments for students who do not have a final grade assigned for the class.

  1. Go to Registrar > Multiple Student Course Drop.

  2. Select All enrollments in the uploaded spreadsheet in the semester chosen below.

  3. Click Browse and upload your spreadsheet.

    • Drop Date: Represents the date recorded as the drop. This date may impact the student’s bill if you have tuition and refunds determined by drop date.

    • Delete Records: Select to delete the enrollment records. Campus Cafe recommends extreme caution in selecting this because drop records are critical for accurate billing and reporting.

    • Semester: Select the semester the courses on the spreadsheet are scheduled in.

  1. Click Submit.

Audit log

Drops processed through this function will appear in a student's audit log with a comment of either AD or CC, depending on if this process was run for Auto-Drop (AD) or Cancelled Courses (CC).
