How do I check that all my students are enrolled?

1. Check the list of students enrolled in a course via Control Panel > List/Modify Users. (Then click “All Users” twice to show you the full list).
2. Check if there are any missing students and find out why they are not enrolled yet in Blackboard.
3. Check if there are any extraneous students who enrolled in your course by mistake (it does happen). You can remove a student from your Blackboard course via Control Panel > Remove Users from Course.

How do I get my students to enroll?

You set the enrollment type via Control Panel > Settings > Enrollment Options.

There are two basic ways to enroll students in a course:

1. Instructor enroll is when you add the students to your course one by one via Control Panel > Enroll Users.  Do this is if you want to have complete control over the enrollments for some reason.
2. Self-enroll is when you set the course to allow students to enroll in it themselves. They do this by searching for the course id or name and clicking the enroll button. See the main Blackboard FAQ for how they do this.

These are recommended settings for enrollment: Self-enrollment with an Access Code.
