Override Academic Requirements for Student

When you select this override type with a

Unit Requirement

type eligibility rule, you can split the course units between multiple academic requirements. You can select registrations from the

Assign Registrations to Apply

prompt and enter the units for each registration in the

Units Assigned

field.

When the course requirement has a grade modifier, the

Ignore Grade

check box is available. To ensure that all registrations are displaying in the prompt and to bypass the minimum grade requirement, select this check box.

For academic requirements that use a Combination type eligibility rule, you can select a specific eligibility rule within the Combination rule to assign a course registration.

Workday enables you to assign multiple overrides of this type on an academic requirement. The course remains assigned to the academic requirement until you remove the override.

Unlike the

Substitute Course

override, with this override, Workday doesn’t require another registration to substitute for the excluded registration to achieve program completion on the student's

Academic Progress

report.

You can use this override for course requirements, unit requirements, and grade averages. You can also use this override for combination rules that have nested course requirements and unit requirements.

Workday doesn't support this override type for grade requirements without courses defined.

Recommendation: If a non-live registration is assigned to a requirement already satisfied, you can perform a second override to exclude a live registration to prevent duplicate satisfaction.

Workday enables you to assign multiple overrides of this type on an academic requirement.

When you use a

Substitute Course

type academic requirement override, Workday evaluates the alternate course set before the required course in satisfying the academic requirement.

Waive a specific academic requirement. If you waive a requirement or a waive override is pending, the related action

Workday also enables you to waive the academic requirement for an activity, like

Study

Abroad

. You can only waive academic requirements for activities that use activity eligibility rules. The waive override type is the only override available for requirements that contain activity eligibility rules.
