Campus Connect Faculty FAQs

Can an advisor enroll a student using the Vax registration system or Campus Connect?

In the near future the Vax registration system will be going away. Until that time, Advisors who previously had Vax access can still enroll students, including those who are not their advisees, as in the past.
Using Campus Connect, any Advisor may enroll students but only those who are their advisees.

How do I enroll students using Campus Connect?

After logging into Campus Connect, follow these steps to enroll students:

• Click Available Options
• Select Student Advisement
• Enter the Student Identification Number, and click the Go! button
• Click Registration
• Select Add/Drop Courses

How do I release a Freshman student for online self-enrollment after they have been advised?

To allow a Freshman to self-enroll online:

• Once logged in to Campus Connect, click Available Options
• Select Student Advising
• Enter the Student Identification Number, and click the Go! Button
• Click Student Information
• Select Demographic Data
• Click the Update Demographic button
• Type Y in the OK to Web Register field
• Click the Make Changes button

Will an email be sent to advisors about enrollment and class changes from both the Vax registration and Campus Connect?

Yes, an email message will be sent to the student’s advisor anytime a course is added or dropped from a schedule.

If administrative assistants enroll students using their advisor codes, will the email be sent to them or the student’s advisor?

The student’s advisor will receive all enrollment emails, regardless of who enrolled the student.

Who can grant permission for students to enroll in a closed class, or classes requiring special permission?

In Campus Connect, Deans, Associate Deans, Departmental Chairs, and the Registrar’s Office have the ability to:

• Override Closed classes and those with Special Permission flags.
• Access information on all students, regardless if they are the student’s advisor or not.

What departments are excluded from online enrollment?

• Pharmacy (PHARM)
• Medical Technology (MT)
• Occupational Therapy (OTA)
• Physical Therapy (PTA)
• Nursing (NURS)

Note: Excluded department’s courses will not show up on the Course Availability screens.

During the process of enrolling a student via Campus Connect, I set the student’s account to allow self-enrollment. If I do not wish this option to be permanently available, can the account be reset to not allow the student to self-enroll?

Yes, you may reset your advisees accounts to not allow self-enrollment by following the same steps as for allowing the student to self-enroll, except enter an N in the “OK to Web enroll” field to restrict the student’s account. All student accounts will be reset to not allow online enrollment on the 10th class day of every semester. Then, as each class (Seniors and Juniors, and then Sophomores) is allowed to enroll, the accounts will automatically be reset to allow online enrollment.

What are the valid grades that can be used when entering grades in Campus Connect?

A, B, C, D, F, I, W and WF are valid grades for regular courses.

S, U, W, and WU are valid grades for Pass/Fail courses.

Note: Grades of AU and W cannot be changed. W/ should only be changed to W, WF, or WU at the end of the semester – as a final grade.
