Adding Students

Some students may ask you to add them to your section. We already exceed the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) recommendation for 20 students in each section. Tell students who want to add your section that they must work through AccessPlus. Do not sign any add slips. If a student is persistent about adding your section, please have them contact Deanna Stumbo at stumbo@iastate.edu.

Students who say they have added your class but who are not on your list may stay in your classroom that day–because you cannot check AccessPlus “on the spot,” and they may have added before you checked your updated list that day. However, you must check their enrollment status on AccessPlus immediately after class. If the student does not appear on your updated list, email the student that they must work through AccessPlus to find an opening in a section of 150 or 250. Do not allow a student to continue attending your section if he/she is not officially enrolled in the class.
