How to Submit Changes When Options are Grayed Out

When students are about to enroll in courses, we limit the changes that can be done directly through CLSS due to changes affecting enrolled students (especially billing). This ensures that changes do not occur without proper documentation and changes are processed correctly.

It is indicated when changes are going to be limited for a term by going to the CLSS Calendar.

Creating a New Section during Limited Changes

Creating a new section during limited changes is very similar to editing an existing section. Continue making a new section as normal, by going into the appropriate subject, double clicking it to open it, and then clicking the green plus sign.
