 PERC rosters appear in PAWS as soon as prerequisites are enforced on a class section. When registration begins, students will begin to populate the roster.

Students on the PERC roster during registration will fall into one of the two following classifications:

To display additional or different students, or to filter out a certain group, check or uncheck the boxes in the “Set Filter Options” box and click the green ‘Filter’ button.

The Enrollment Req Status column indicates how the student initially enrolled in the class section. Once their grade in the prerequisite course posts (after the final grade post), the values in the Post Enroll Req Status column change to reflect current student eligibility.

Not Satisfied: The student has not met the enrollment requirement(s) for the class.
Conditional: The student did not meet the enrollment requirement(s) at the time of enrollment but the requirement has been coded to allow in-progress work to meet the requirement conditionally, until final grades are posted.
Overridden: The enrollment requirement(s) for the class were satisfied by using a Requisites override (they were either given a permission number or placed on the permission list for the course to override the prerequisite they did not meet).
Satisfied: The student has met the enrollment requirement(s) for this class (which you should only see if you choose the “satisfied” filter).

Clicking on the “Not Satisfied” link allows you to view detailed information about which part of the prerequisites the student failed to meet.

Example:

In the example above, the student did not earn the minimum passing grade for Bio Sci 150, the prerequisite course for the course in question.

Once you determine that the student has not satisfied the prerequisite for the class, you can set the Drop/Approved Indicator to “Drop Request.” As soon as the grade post process starts to run for a given term, an overnight process that drops students for whom the PERC roster indicator has been changed to “Drop Request” also begins. This process runs until the term starts. When they are dropped through this process, an  automatic email is sent to students notifying them that they have been dropped from the class because they did not satisfy the prerequisites for the course.

**In some cases, a student may appeal to the instructor and be allowed to re-enroll. It is important that the instructor communicates that information to the administrator in charge of the PERC process in your department. Once the student has re-enrolled, you will have to go into the PERC Roster and change the drop indicator to “Approved.” If the indicator is not changed, the student will be dropped from the course that evening.

You will notice that both students that were conditionally enrolled and received passing grades as well as students that met the prerequisite upon registration will appear on this list.

Each department utilizing PERC should determine their own dates and deadlines for administrative drops. The Registrar’s Office recommends the following in order to ensure that students are dropped in a timely manner so that they are able to make alternate plans for their schedule before the term begins, or as close to term start as possible:

• Check PERC roster right when grades are due (see Instructor Grading site for dates), first round of drops
• Check PERC roster once a week leading up to the beginning of the next term for late grades and transfer credit postings
• All drops should be processed before the beginning of the term. Strongly recommended: all drops should be completed 1-2 days before the waitlist purge to allow students on the waiting list to take empty seats
• Investigate all “IP” grades before the beginning of the term so proper action can be taken (last week before new term begins recommended)
