Overview

The Not Enrolled Flag in MU Connect is added by the system after the early registration period each semester. This flag identifies students who have not yet enrolled for the upcoming Fall or Spring term; students graduating in the current term are excluded from receiving the flag. The purpose of this flag is to help units with outreach to students not yet enrolled and track student enrollment alongside the "here not here" list.  The flag displays in MU Connect after early registration through the last day to add of the flagged semester.  An attribute is available throughout the semester. 

The flag is automatically cleared/resolved the day after a student enrolls in at least 1 credit hour. The flag will automatically raise again if the student drops all of their courses for the upcoming term, unless the flag was cleared/resolved manually by a staff member.

Adding Comments to the Flag after Outreach

As part of the outreach to students not yet enrolled for the upcoming term, staff are encouraged to add comments to the flag to indicate student plans or reason for not enrolling.  To do so, start on the Tracking.

1. Click the check box next to the student's name
2. Click the +Comment button at the top of the page
3. Add the Subject (i.e. "Enrollment plans")
4. Type a Note with additional details (i.e. "Student plans to enroll after Financial Aid is processed" or "Student is waiting on admission to professional program and will be enrolling later")
   • You can send the notes to yourself or the student when appropriate, but this is not required.
   • Do not send a copy of the comment to the flag raiser (since the flag is raised by the system)
5. Click Submit

The flag is automatically cleared/resolved the day after a student enrolls in at least 1 credit hour.  The flag will re-raise if the student drops all of the courses in the upcoming term, unless the flag was cleared/resolved by a staff member.

Clearing/Resolving the Flag after Outreach

The Not Enrolled flag is automatically cleared/resolved the day after a student enrolls in at least 1 credit hour.  The flag will automatically raise again if the student drops all of their courses for the upcoming term, unless the flag was cleared/resolved manually by a staff member.  

If the student does not intend to enroll in classes during the next term, a staff member may clear/resolve the flag in MU Connect to avoid erroneous outreach.  To clear/resolve the flag, navigate to the Tracking tab:

1. Click the check box next to the student's name
2. Click Resolve
3. Select the reason for resolving this flag 
   • Interaction with student occurred or concern addressed - discussion with the student or confirmation that the student is studying abroad and does not need to enroll in the upcoming term.
4. Add a comment with additional details (i.e. "Student is transferring and will not enroll in [TERM]" or "Student is studying abroad next semester")
5. Click Submit
