If this course was designated a distance education course on the Registration Configuration window (Registration Configuration tab), the checkbox is automatically selected.
· Select this checkbox if the selected course/section is offered as a Distance Education course/section as defined by NCES for IPEDS reporting.
· Clear this checkbox if the selected course/section is offered as either a Distance Education or as a traditional course/section (i.e., course/section is offered locally).
This checkbox determines the Distance Education Status for students. IPEDS Fall Enrollment Reporting requires that students be reported as one of three statuses:
· Exclusively Distance Education
· Some Distance Education
· No Distance Education
J1 calculates this status for students based on courses in Student Course History and the Section Master Distance Education value.
