Create reserve capacities
- Susan Dawson
Before You Begin...
Reserve capacities are used to reserve a certain amount of seats for a student group. When a reserve capacity is used when scheduling a class section, it will ensure that students within a student group will have priority when registering for the course. When creating a class section, you indicate what student group should have priority when registering and how many students will have a reserve capacity. This is an option scheduling feature but one that ensures the right students are able to take the class if necessary.
Examples of student groups include, but are not limited to, Academic Level (such as Senior), students with certain majors, and location (such as Shady Grove.)
