Add from list

Pick from your institute's roster

Sort the list, add a single student via the + icon, or select multiple checkboxes and click Add Students to enrol them in bulk.

This option lets you add students from a pre-existing list maintained by your administrator. When you choose Add from List, a window opens with every student the admin has set up, showing Student ID, Name, Email, Department, and Section.

The list can be sorted by Student Name, Email, Department, or Section to help you find students quickly in long rosters.
