This topic covers how to upload class rosters into existing classes at the school.
- Select Classes on the left sidebar to view your school’s list of active classes.
- On the Classes page, click the Upload Class Rosters button.
- Select Download a CSV template here in the grey box on the right side of the page.
- Open the CSV file in Microsoft Excel, and fill out the required rows and columns.
Do not change the column headers, as this will prevent a successful file upload.
- The required CSV columns and their values include:
- Class ID: This is the Engrade class ID assigned to each class and will be added to the downloaded template file automatically.
- Student ID: This is the Engrade student ID assigned to each student. A separate row is required for each student in each class.
Remove all class rows that are not being updated from the CSV or you will see a number of error messages.
- If you are using a Windows computer, save the file as a Comma Separated Values (.csv) file.
- If you are using a Mac computer, you will need to save your CSV file in a slightly different format. If you use the default Comma Separated Values (.csv) file format, you may be unable to upload your file.
- While in Excel, select File and Save As.
- Under Format, select Windows Comma Separated (.csv) from the drop-down menu, and save your file.
- On the Upload Class Rosters page, choose to either:
- Overwrite Class Students: Overwrite the students already enrolled in classes with your new class rosters.
- Only Add New Students: Add only additional students to class rosters.
- Once your file is complete and saved to your computer as a .CSV, select Choose File on the Upload Class Rosters page.
- Select your CSV file from your computer.
- Click the green Upload CSV button to upload the class rosters. You will then see your new class rosters populated on the Classes page.
