Prevent Registration Errors Before Enrollment
Prevent Registration Barriers Before They Derail Enrollment with CourseLeaf Pre-Flight
Most colleges and universities have experienced students attempting to register for courses they aren’t eligible for, overwhelmed help desks, and last-minute troubleshooting during peak registration periods.
Pre-Flight, a feature of CourseLeaf PATH, solves these issues before they even start.
Pre-Flight informs or warns students in real time - as they add classes to their registration carts - whether or not they are eligible to register for a course. If there’s a problem, students receive a clear, actionable message explaining why registration would fail, giving them the chance to resolve the issue early.
How It Works
Real-Time Checks While Students Build Their Schedules
As students add courses, Pre-Flight scans eligibility criteria (like prerequisites, holds, restrictions, and time conflicts).
Immediate Notifications
Students are alerted if they’re not eligible, with specific explanations and guidance on what to fix.
Time to Take Action
Issues can be addressed before their time ticket opens or during the add/drop/swap period which reduces frustration and failed registration attempts.
Integrated with Your SIS
If a student doesn’t resolve the issue, your SIS will still block registration and Pre-Flight will alert them again, directly from their cart.
