When student types need to be added or updated in Colleague, you can manually change it per student or do it via a batch update.

Student types can be added/updated/ended in two ways, manually one student at a time or by batch update, provided the appropriate permissions have been granted.

Manual Update

1. Go to the RGPE (Registration Person Entry) or SPRO (Student Profile) screen
2. If there is an existing student type, go to the next available line and enter the new student type code. 
3. IMPORTANT NOTE: you should never delete or overwrite an existing student type unless the student type was entered incorrectly.  We need to maintain a history of all student types a student has had for enrollment reporting and billing purposes
4. If the date should be future or backdated enter the date for the new student type to start (default is the date it is entered)
5. Save and Update out of the screen

Batch Update

There are 2 ways you can use the batch update, either with a saved list of student IDs or by entering each student onto the update screen.  If you are updating a large number of students, the best way to do it is using a saved list.  

• Create a savedlist of student IDs on the SLED screen, if you are unsure how to do it, refer to this article:  Creating Savedlists Using SLED and SLCR
• Go to the UPST (Batch Update Student Types) screen
• Change Update Mode to Y
• Enter in the student type code you are adding, if you are unsure of the code, you can enter ... to look up the code
• Enter the start date of the student type
• Enter the saved list name you created on SLED
• Save and Update twice to execute the process
