Merging Course Rosters

  • From my.scranton.edu, instructors will find the link to merge courses under the Faculty tab --> Academic Links portlet. This link is only used to request merging of MULTIPLE sections of similar D2L courses into one course. You must be an assigned instructor for these courses in order to submit a merge request, and the merge will only be in effect for one semester. The request form is open from four weeks prior to the start of a semester until two weeks after a semester starts. NOTE:  If a course is merged, it cannot be unmerged. The merge process runs at 12 Noon and again at 3:00 a.m. Contact CTLE if you have any questions regarding the merging of courses.
