Before Preregistration:

  • Check all sections for prerequisites, co-requisites, and restrictions in Raiderlink under the “Course Catalog”
  • Submit any changes to IR (attention Tess Barlow or Ashley McPherson)

During Preregistration/Registration:

When students send error messages, find out what the error message is, ask questions – we will!

  1. If it is a prerequisites error:
    1. Has the student completed the prerequisites courses required?
    2. Is there a prerequisite file attached in your section or sections in SSAPREQ?
      1. After you have verified the above information then email Tess Barlow.
      2. If the problem is not prerequisites, then Tess will coordinate with Dale Ganus and Bobbie Latham to get the error resolved.
    After all these steps have been exhausted and the error still exists then and only then give the permit to students
  2. If it is a co-requisite error:
    1. Did the student enter the TWO CRNs at the same time? To avoid the co-requisite error, the two CRNs must be entered at the same time.
    2. Check your sections & if they are properly coded, this is found in SSADETL
      A change to the co-requisite information needs to be submitted to http://www.irim.ttu.edu/Prerequisites.php
    After all these steps have been exhausted and the error still exists then and only then give the permit to students
  3. If it is a link error:
    1. Did the student enter the TWO CRNs at the same time? To avoid a link error both CRNs must be entered at the same time.
    2. Verify that the sections that the student is trying to register for are indeed linked and linked correctly. Use the following site to troubleshoot https://banapps.tosm.ttu.edu/ITIS/STUSSB/LinkedCourse.aspx
      After you have verified the above information then email Janessa Walls & Nicci Price
    After all these steps have been exhausted and the error still exists then and only then give the permit to students
