The Drop/Add Daily Email Digest was created at the request of ACPAC. The digest provides an email notification to instructors when students drop or add their courses.
Only the primary instructor of record will be notified via email of any drop/add activity. The daily email digest will be sent to the instructor's IUP email address; one digest is sent per day per course that has drop/add activity. For example, if a faculty member is teaching four courses, they would receive separate emails for each course in which a student drops or adds the class. If no students have dropped or added the particular course, there will not be an email sent to the instructor of that course.
Note: This service only processes drop/add activity once the course begins. Preregistration course activity is not emailed in the Drop/Add Daily Email Digest.
How do faculty members sign up for this email service?
Instructors are automatically subscribed to this service each term. In order to receive a daily email digest, you do not need to take any action. Whenever a student drops or adds your course, you will be notified via email during the nightly email process. The Drop/Add Daily Email Digest(s) will be delivered to your IUP email inbox daily with the subject "Drop/Add Daily Digest". You will receive one email per course if there is any drop or add activity. You will not receive an email if there is no drop/add activity for a course.
What if I do not want to receive the Daily Email Digest or if I only want alerted for certain courses?
To opt out of the Digest, you will log in to MyIUP to manage your subscription for the digest.
- In the MyIUP portal, go to Discover. Search for "course tools." On the Course Tools card, click on Subscription to drop/add email.
This will allow you to opt out of the Daily Email Digest for the current term. Since you are automatically subscribed to the digest each term, when future terms arrive, you will need to repeat this action to opt out of the digest.
