Course Planner alerts

Red alert

If there is a red circle with a white dash through the middle, that means there is a conflict with the student’s course plan. Clicking on the red alert will bring up a modal window with directions to resolve the alert. Possible conflicts include:

• The student is missing a prerequisite for a course.
• The student is missing a corequisite for a course.
• A course requires approval from an educator before the student can submit.

Blue alert

Blue alerts - a blue circle with the letter “i” in the middle - provide additional information of interest about a course. You don’t need to do anything about a blue alert; they will not restrict a student from submitting their course plan. Clicking on it will open a modal window with further details, such as:

• Advisor course note, such as fees for field trips, lab materials, or supplies.
• The student is fast tracking and may be taking a prerequisite in the same year as the course.
• The student doesn’t meet the recommended minimum mark threshold.

White alert

If there is a white circle with gray dash through it, a red alert has already been resolved and you can view what action was taken. The white alert also allows you to undo the action that was taken while it was a red alert.
