Core Course Balance Audit By Term
The Core Course Balance Audit By Term creates a list of students that shows the number of Core Courses taken in each Term. The program will display all students found matching the setup criteria with 2 terms showing the count of the number of core courses scheduled to each term. Another column will display a "Y" or an "N" to denote whether the student`s schedule is in balance (Y), or not in balance (N). For 2 semester schools, semester 1 is term 1, and semester 2 is term 2. For 4 semester schools, term 1 is semesters 1 and 2, and term 2 is semesters 3 and 4. Note that a course/section is counted only once per term, so a course lasting 4 semesters should be counted once in term 1 (fall) and once in term 2 (spring). A course/section taught in a 2 semester setting will be counted once in the fall, and once in the spring. For a 4x4 school a course/section taught only in term 1 (semesters one and two) is counted only once. As an example, in a 4x4 system, the 1st and 2nd semesters would be considered the 1st Term and the 3rd and 4th semesters would be considered the 2nd Term.
