This article is for courses using the new Ultra Course View. Instructions for the Original Course View can be found here: Granting Student Access to Unavailable Courses - Original Course View
This article is for faculty and staff seeking information regarding extending student access to a HuskyCT course for a specified period of time.
Approximately two weeks after the academic term ends, students will lose access to a course (assuming a later end date has not been set). Four weeks after the term ends, student enrollment is set to "closed" (applies to courses where the end date has passed). This removes courses from the students' view in HuskyCT which would otherwise contain older, inaccessible courses.
If the course is re-opened, it will be re-opened for anyone in the course who's Availability is set to "Yes". Instructors should contact huskyct@uconn.edu to request the student enrollment roster for all students in a course to be set to "unavailable" to limit access to only the student or students you are opening the course for. An Instructor can set student's enrollment to "unavailable" on a one-by-one basis within the Users and Groups of the course; however, if this needs to be done for many students, please contact huskyct@uconn.edu to have an admin do it.
Reopening a Course
There may be times when a student receives an incomplete in a course and you must re-open the course for a period of time. To reopen a course for a student, two settings need to be adjusted:
Extending the course End date (which Opens the course). This can be done with these instructions: Changing Course Availability in Ultra Course View
Allowing access for the student
Under Details & Actions → Roster, click on the ellipsis next to the student requiring access.
Click Edit Member Information.
In the panel that appears, check the box for Allow access to course.
Click Save.
After completing those two steps, the student(s) will now have access to the course until the extended end date of the course.
If you have questions or difficulty granting access to a student, please contact: huskyct@uconn.edu.
