• Archeology 305 (corequisite with Anthropology 307)
• Latin 150
If a user tries to drop the Biology lecture course and the Anthropology course, the system
displays the Connected Course Drop Confirmation page showing both connections and
asking whether the user wants to drop or not drop them. The decision the user makes on
this page applies to both connections: if the user chooses to drop the courses, all four are
dropped; if the user chooses not to drop the courses, none of the four are dropped.
Connected Drops Processed Automatically
You want the system to automatically drop a linked course if the course to which it is
linked is dropped. To accomplish this, you have set the external code to Y for the
AUTODROP rule.
Let’s say a student has registered in the following courses:
• Zoology 505 lecture (linked to Zoology 505 lab)
• Zoology 505 lab (linked to Zoology 505 lecture)
• Psychology 410
• Mathematics 380
• German 202
If a user attempts to drop the lecture course but not the lab, the system automatically drops
both. The system does not notify the user that the lab was also dropped.
Note
The system drops both courses in the connection as long as the
connected course has a single, active drop code; otherwise both classes
are returned to their original registration status.
•
Connected Drops Not Allowed
You do not want students to be able to drop a connected course unless all the courses in the
connection are dropped simultaneously by the user. To accomplish this, you have set the
external code to N for the AUTODROP rule.
Let’s say a student has registered in the following courses:
• Biology 101 lecture (linked to Biology 101 lab)
• Biology 101 lab (linked to Biology 101 lecture)
• English 105
• History 102
