How to Register Advisees

To register advisees in WebAdvisor:

1. Open Internet Explorer and go to the Monmouth College home page.
    
2. Click on the Registrar link at the bottom of the page, as shown circled below. The Registrar's page appears.

3. Click on the Faculty link, as shown circled below. The WebAdvisor main page appears.

4. Click on the Log In link, as shown circled below. (The page will look slightly different.) The Log In page appears.

5. In the User ID field, enter your Monmouth College user name.
    
6. In the Password field, enter your Monmouth College password (not the last four digits of your social security number).
    
7. Click on the Submit button.
    
8. Click on the Faculty link, as shown below. The WebAdvisor for Faculty Menu page appears.

9. Under Faculty Information, click on the My Advisees link, as shown circled below. A list of your advisees appears.

10. If you know the course and section numbers of the class for which you want to register your advisee, then click on the down arrow next to the advisee's name and select Express Registration.

Note: If you want to search for a section, click on the down arrow next to the advisee's name and select Search and Register.

Note: You will only be able to work with one advisee at a time. Make sure that the cell next to the student name is blank before moving to begin registration for another advisee.

11. Either click on the Submit button at the bottom of the page or click the cursor on a blank area of the page and press the Enter key. (The Enter key will not work if an option is highlighted.) The Express Registration page appears, as shown below.

12. Leave the Synonym field blank (this field is not used for our registration process).
     
13. Click on the Subject down arrow and select the subject.
     
14. In the Course Number and Section Number fields, enter the course and section numbers.
     
15. Click on the Term down arrow and select the term. (There may be times when you will be registering for more than one term.) An example of completed entry is shown below.

16. Click on the Submit button or click the cursor on a blank area of the page and press the Enter key. (The Enter key will not work if an option is highlighted.) The Register and Drop Sections page appears, as shown below.

17. Click on the Action down arrow next to the course and select Register.
    
    Note: If you have several courses listed, then you can click on the Action for ALL Pref. Sections down arrow and select Register. Please note that if there is something preventing registration for even one course in a group (e.g., if the section is closed), then none of the registrations will go through. You would have to waitlist the student for the closed section since the same action (registration) could not be applied to all of the choices.
     
18. Click on the Submit button or click the cursor on a blank area of the page and press the Enter key. (The Enter key will not work if an option is highlighted.)
    
    Note: You can simultaneously drop and add a course much like you used to swap courses in CARS.
     
19. If the class is not closed, there is not a time conflict, all prerequisites have been meet, etc. then the registration will be processed, as shown below.

If a class is closed, then you will have the option of placing the student on a waitlist. Waitlist information is displayed at the bottom of the page, as shown below.

Additional Notes

• To view your advisee's schedule, go back to My Advisees, click on the down arrow next to the name of the student whose schedule you want to view, and select View Student Schedule.
   
• Eventually, we will get the superfluous fields such as Synonyms and CEUs removed. Just ignore them for now.
   
• You will not be able to register your advisees until they become eligible to register given the registration start times.
   
• Jill, Lisa, and I will still need to move students from waitlists and override other registration restrictions from our side of Datatel. Instructors will need to email us as has been done in the past.
  
  Questions??? Call the Registrar's Office (2326) and we will do all we can to help you.
