What is Module Enrolment? Module Enrolment is the process by which core modules are automatically attached to a student, students choose their optional modules, and those choices are recorded. The data is held on Saturn, and is also shown on the students My Modules channel on the Portal.

Why do we need Module Enrolment? Module enrolment data is used in several areas: Students – need to have the correct number of credits to complete their course Students - view module information via Portal and WebCT Schools – print class lists based on Saturn information Timetabling – schedule classes based on pre-enrolment information and module sizes Examinations – schedule exam timetables based on student enrolments PMID – allocate budgets based on student numbers

The Module Enrolment Form All data is taken from the Saturn Student Record Header information contains –Students name –Student ID –Course –Year of study All core modules are pre-printed on the form

Three Stages of Module Enrolment The Module Enrolment process has three stages Stage 1 – Module Enrolment (September/October) Stage 2 – Module Confirmation (January/February) Stage 3 – Module Pre-Enrolment (April/May)

Stage 1: Module Enrolment September - October IS run the Module Build for all student records Forms are printed off and sent to Schools Students collect their forms, make choices, and hand in to school offices Choices must be approved!
