Troubleshooting

Submit surveys only for those courses with the correct instructor name. Some courses (such as Nursing) have multiple instructors listed. Please disregard those course listings that you see with an instructor who did not teach you.

This may be caused by one of several issues:

  • You are not viewing the link during the date range allocated for submitting the Student Opinion Survey.
  • Some types of courses are not included in the Student Opinion Survey, specifically Independent Studies, Tutorial, Dissertation/Thesis, Lecture/Studio, Programmed Instruction, Computer-Assisted Instruction, Telecourse, Non-credit Instruction and Pre-ISI/Inactive/No Type

Officially, the University has you listed as "registered" for that course. Please contact the Registrar's office.
