Subject: Fall 2021 Schedule Update
Good morning, Deans, Assoc./Assist. Deans and Department Chairs.
Currently, Banner is off while our office makes room assignments and checks peak times.
We are working on a mismatch/error report to send to your schedulers. Banner will open
tomorrow morning (Thursday, March 25) for updates, changes and additions. Banner will
close again on Monday, March 29, 2021. Please make sure all changes are completed by this
time.
We will continue to provide updates and we will be communicating any potential enrollment
issues as fall registration opens and continues. Please note that although priority
registration begins April 5th, you will begin seeing new Freshmen students in courses as
early as March 29. These students are our new FR who have completed orientation and who
will be preloaded into appropriate, major-specific courses prior to them meeting with
advisors.
As a reminder, The Report
Center<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%...
offers a number of dashboards and reports to evaluate course scheduling for Fall 2021.
Course Availability (Registration Cycle Tab)
Use this report to track the fill rate of courses during the registration cycle. The
report is updated four times daily and has slicers to pull courses with limited seat
availability.
Course Capacity and Enrollment (Courses Tab)
Use this dashboard to look at courses in past semesters to help plan what courses could be
offered in future semesters. It shows the fill rate by course, as well as courses that are
consistently full for the past three academic years.
Teaching Assignments (Courses Tab)
Department Chairs can use this report to review faculty assignments for the long
semesters. The report is updated as Banner is updated.
Course Scheduling (Courses Tab)
Use this report to facilitate the timing of courses within the department, as well as
across departments. For instance, if there is a course offered in another department, the
course can be selected to see what time(s) it is offered to work with the other department
chair on scheduling.
Small Classes (Courses Tab)
This report shows all small classes at UTSA. Small classes are defined as undergraduate
course sections with fewer than 10 students enrolled and graduate course sections with
fewer than 5 students enrolled.
Course Demand and Residual Waitlist Report (Courses Tab)
This report shows the history of enrollment by course as well as the residual waitlist for
all courses to show the full course demand. There are two tabs, the first tab shows
individual courses and the second tab shows all courses by College and Department. Updated
daily.
Thank you for your work in getting this schedule put together!
Eric
