Entering data on the form:

  • Student ID (when applicable): Enter the student ID, then use the Tab key to auto-populate the student’s information, including last and first name, and middle initial; class year where applicable (for undergraduates only); and student email fields. After entering the student ID, verify that the correct student's name is displayed. If the ID is mistyped, re-enter it, and use the Tab key to repopulate the correct student information.
  • Skipping the ID field, selecting return (enter) after entering ID, or placing the cursor in another field may cause the auto-populate feature to fail and require that you manually enter the student’s name, class year (if applicable), and email.
  • Data may be entered manually in any field.
