Academic Years Table

An Academic Year record represents a single year the school is in operation.  It has a calendar start date and end date.  There is one record for each year in operation.  The Programs of Study module requires sufficient academic year records to plan out the courses students will take until they graduate.  

When a student transfers into Studia Nova, the student's previous records need to be articulated, which means the process that one school goes through to award credit to the student for taking classes at another school. Therefore, there needs to be sufficient past academic years so that any new student's previous classes can be entered in the year they took them.

Future academic years are required.

Past academic years are required.

Academic Years have a status field with options of past, future, or current.  Also, based on the total number of vacations days, the academic year record calculates the total days in the academic year.  This is important since there are many regulations that specify the total number of days in an academic year.

Fields

• The user enters year name, start year, end year, start date, end date, and sequence.
• PEMS calculates school days, vacation days.
• PEMS updates the status of the year based on the calendar.
