Question
Setting Your Default Term
Answer

Overview

Users can specify their “default term.” In other words: the term that will be automatically loaded when you navigate to Academic Scheduling or Curriculum Management.   

 

Path

Academic Scheduling or Curriculum Management > Profile > Account Settings

 

 

Setting Your Default Term

  • If a default term is specified in the dropdown shown below, the user will see that term loaded when they first log into Academic Scheduling or Curriculum Management. 

  • If a default term is not specified for a user or it is set to “App default term”, they will see the current scheduling term when they first log in.

  • If you or an admin applies a Default View that includes a different term, when you first log in, you will see the term defined in that view rather than your Default Term. 

  • For system schools where users have access to multiple Coursedog instances, the Default Term you select here will not persist; instead, it will return to “App default term” upon logout. 

 

Changing the Displayed Term

  • Regardless of what is set for your default term, you can change the displayed term within the application. When you do that, the selected term will persist throughout the product during that log-in session. 

  • Once you log out and then log back in again, the displayed term will return to whatever is set as your default. 

  • Go here to see how you can change the displayed term. 

Default Term + Saved Views

  • If you or an admin applies a Default View that includes a different term, you will see the term defined in that view rather than whatever you defined for a Default Term.
