Drop/Add Guidelines for
Online and Hybrid Students
When paid
students drop courses (online and hybrid) before the 10% point,
they will be removed from the Blackboard database upon
notification from the Registrar or instructor. Paid students who remain in
courses after the 10% point (even though they withdraw) can be
counted for FTE. At this point, the students who have withdrawn
will be blocked after the Blackboard Administrator receives
email notification from the Instuctor in accordance with the policy stated in the BCCC catalog. This procedure
prevents students from accessing the course but allows the
information to remain in the course and to be available for
auditing purposes.
Students are
added to a course by the Blackboard Administrator upon receiving
notification from the instructor, the Registrar, or receiving a
signed registration form from the student (with Datatel
verification). The instructor will need to supply the students
full name and birth date along with the last six digits of the
students SS#.
Students are
downloaded into the class the first day of class by the
Blackboard Administrator.
