This document will provide instructions using the Cohort Year Fast Loader. Students can be fast loaded by selecting all students that are in the same Cohort Year and then selecting the Cohort; or the students may be assigned individually for a small group of students that are in a different Cohort. The cohort year will be loaded to the Sports tab in Student Master.
In Bulletin 111 (July 2016), the LDOE defines Cohort Year as `A cohort of students is all students who entered 9th grade for the first time in the state of Louisiana in a given academic year. Transitional 9th graders will enter automatically the first time 9th grade cohort in the year after enrolling in transitional 9th grade.`

Instructions for loading the Student Cohort Year for all students in the same grade with the same cohort year:
- You will need the list of the few students that do not have the same Cohort Year as the majority of the grade and each cohort year of each of these students. Their cohort year can be entered individually or in small groups using the instructions below.
- Click the Check Box at the top of the Cohort Year column. An asterisk will appear in the column for all students.
- NOTE--students that already have a cohort year on the screen should be skipped when checking the cohort year check box. Skipping these students will prevent the replacement of any existing cohort years that have been previously entered.
- Select the Cohort Year from the list of values on the right side of the screen.
- All asterisks will be replaced with the selected cohort year value.
- A student's cohort year can be found at the bottom right on the Sports and Fees tab of his/her student master record.

Q & A
Q - If a student graduates high school a year earlier than their original cohort, should their 9th grade entry year be changed so that their data can be included with the cohort they finished with or should nothing be changed and their data be included a year later with their original cohort?
A - There will be no need to change the cohort year for early grads because the cohort year is only used when the student's graduation year is more than 4 years after the fall of the cohort year.
