Confidentiality Overview - Workday

If you agree to share your information beyond ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓÆµ, it remains protected under FERPA. This consent allows us to verify your attendance with external parties like employers, graduate schools, and scholarship agencies. If you prefer to keep your information confidential, you request that your records be kept private. This means all college business must be handled in person, and we cannot verify your attendance with anyone, even after graduation.  

Opting to publicize your directory information means it will be listed in the ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Student Directory and accessible only to those with active ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓÆµ accounts. This choice does not waive your FERPA rights if you do not want to be in the directory. 

Effective Date in Workday vs. Catalog Year

Catalog years have been replaced with Effective Dates in Workday. You can still determine what catalog is applied to a student’s program(s) of study from their Academic Progress Report (APR) in a student’s profile under the Academics section. When viewing a student’s APR, the ‘catalog’ applied to the student’s program of study requirements will be at the top of the Major Requirements; you will see “Requirements Effective” and a date. The corresponding catalog year applied to the program of study is determined by the date range of the Effective Date in which the data resides.

See the table below to determine the catalog year crossover: 

Previously known catalog year applied Effective date range in Workday
Catalog 2018–2019 and any prior 07/01/1991 - 08/23/2019
Catalog 2019-2020 08/24/2019 - 08/23/2020
Catalog 2020-2021 08/24/2020 - 08/23/2021
Catalog 2021-2022 08/24/2021 - 07/31/2022
Catalog 2022-2023 08/01/2022 - 07/30/2023
Catalog 2023-2024 07/21/2023 - 07/28/2024
Catalog 2024-2025 07/29/2024 - 07/28/2025

The applied catalog year can be changed easily. If you are an advisor and believe the student’s major requirements must be evaluated under a different catalog year, contact registrar@fortlewis.edu to make the change.  

Different catalog years can be applied to other programs of study. For example, a student with a double major can apply a specific catalog year to one major and a different catalog year to the other.

How do I help students drop a class during registration?

Students can drop their classes easily and instantly from their Academics app during open registration periods.

  1. Direct the student to their Academics app, located on their Workday home page under Your Top Apps, or from the MENU at the top left of the portal.
  2. From the Academics app, have the student navigate to "View My Courses," located under the Academic Records heading on the task list on the right side of the page.
  3. When the student is in View My Courses, they will see an Actions column and button next to the course section name. Select Actions to see Drop and Swap options (when applicable).
  4. The student can then select the Drop button for the course section they wish to drop. Course sections with multiple available meeting times will also have a Swap option to choose a different meeting time for the same course section.
  5. The student must confirm the drop on the prompted page, select Ok, then Done at the bottom. 
    Note: The Action button will not be visible outside open registration windows.

Once this change is complete, the student can see any dropped classes in a separate list below the current classes table. The student's current courses can also be viewed from their Profile, under the Academics section and the "Current Classes" tab across the top of the section.

Using the Troubleshooting Console

When a student tries to register for a specific course section in Find Course Sections, there may be factors that do not allow them to register for that course, even if they are in their appropriate Registration Appointment. When selecting a course section, the student may not see a Register button but instead a Troubleshoot button. Use the Troubleshooting Console to assist the student in determining why they are unable to register for that specific course section.  

  1. Advisors, faculty, or staff can utilize the Registration Troubleshooting Console by searching for this in the Workday Search bar and selecting the result. 
  2. In the next window, select the bubble next to Student. Click into the field and type the student’s name to choose. (Search hint: Type part of the student’s first name and part of their last name, then Enter to reduce search results) 
  3. Type the semester name and year in the Search Date Within field, then Enter to reduce search results. (ex. “Fall 2024” for fall semester 2024) 
  4. Click the Course field to find the course by category, or type part of the course name and then Enter to reduce search results. 
  5. Click into the Course Section field, then select All. This will filter available sections (meeting times) by all available in the Course you selected in the previous field. Select the course section of interest.  
  6. Select the OK button.  
  7. In the top area of the console, you will see one piece of information that may be of use: 
    1. Active Record During Academic Period: Yes or No (Is the student active for this semester?) 
  8. There are tabs below the basic course section information that can indicate other reasons for registration prevention: 
    1. Summary: will display an overview of potential issues preventing registration (Is there a hold? Does the student have registration access? Are they eligible for the course or section? Is this course section published?) 
    2. Enrollment Access: This tab explains the logic behind the course section access grading policy and may be useless. 
    3. Appointments and Date Controls: Identifies parameters of registration appointments based on graduate or undergraduate registration window parameters. This may help determine if there is a different registration appointment (window) for an undergrad for this course vs. a graduate student.  
    4. Course Eligibility: The student may not be eligible for the course section (yes or no). If the answer is No, a Course and Course section rule in blue can be selected to drill into the specific eligibility requirements of the course and section under the Meaning.   

All data that is blue can be selected and drilled into further. (Ex. If the student has two holds, you can choose the number 2 in that area to drill into the hold information.
