Course Section Cancellation
How to Cancel a Course Section
If a course section is in Approved planner status, the planner is Open, and there are no students enrolled, the department can change the Registration status to Cancelled.
To Cancel a course section, begin by locating the course section in Offerings Planner and "View"
In the Tabs area select Schedule Builder
If courses are viewable on MyUI before a section is cancelled, it's likely students have built schedules using the course section which will be cancelled.
Email the students who have the section saved in at least one Preferred Schedule, notifying them the section will be cancelled
Instructors are not able to perform this function but ADAs can. Notifying students of sections being cancelled before registration begins allows the students to search for another course prior to trying to register.
Select "Registration Status"
Change the Registration Status to "Cancelled" and "Save"
The Registration Status is now 'Cancelled" and the section will not display on MyUI
Cancel Sections with Enrollments
How to Cancel a Course Section with Enrolled Students
