Do a Person Search

In the results, look to see if the returning student was enrolled at sites other than your own.

- When you find a potential match from another site:

Do not use the Student Re-entry button/form. Instead, update student details when you add the student to your site.

1. Confirm the student's identity by clicking on the Not in Site relationship link.
2. Add matching records to your site. Use the Add as Student to Your Site button.
3. Complete the Add form by adding new or updating details.
4. Use Person Merge to combine the multiple records for the same student into a single record. See instructions here: Merging People Records
5. Check the Students>Assessment screen to see if the student needs to be tested now.

The former student is re-entered and ready to go.
