You can transfer a student from one section to another of the same course
if you have access to both of the sections. If an assignment is present
in both sections, any work that the student has completed on the assignment
in the original section automatically transfers to that assignment in
the new section. If the student entered an access code for the class,
the code is transferred to the new section.
Note:
- You can transfer a student only between two sections of the same course in
WebAssign.
- If the two sections are not part of the same course, you must drop the student from
the old course and add the student manually to the new one. Any work the student
completed in the original section remains in the original section.
- You must have permission to modify the rosters of both sections to transfer a
student.
- You might need to request permission from another instructor before transferring the
student. See Grant Another Instructor Access to Your Course.
- The student's work on assignments will transfer only if both of the following are
true:
-
- The same assignment ID is scheduled to both sections of the course.
- The assignment was scheduled to both sections in the same month.
The assignment due date is not considered, only the date when an instructor
scheduled the assignment to the section in WebAssign. For example, if in June you
scheduled assignment 1234 to section 1, and in August you scheduled the same
assignment to section 2, the student's work will not be transferred, regardless of
when the assignment is due in either section.
To transfer a student
to a new section:
When you transfer a student, the student is placed on the dropped list
of the class they are leaving, along with the work the student completed
in that section. The student is not deleted, so you can view the student's
work and add the student back to the original section at any time.

Open the My Classes or ClassView
page.
- For My Classes, click
and find the section you want.

You are notified if any work cannot be transferred. The student is added to the dropped
roster for the class she was transferred out of, and added to the active roster for the
class you transferred her into. If the student entered an access code for the class, the
code is transferred to the new section as well.
