The system supports many different file formats. The data must be in the following format:
Column 1: Email address

Any other columns will be ignored.
After selecting the file a preview of the import will be shown.
The system checks the data for the following errors:
- Invalid email address format
- Duplicate email address in the imported file
- Header row unexpected
All errors must be corrected before being allowed to add.
The header row can be fixed by checking "Skip Header". Make sure to only check it if there is a header row, or a student can get missed.
Other errors must be fixed by modifying the import file and retrying the import.
The system also provides warnings for these situations:
- Full Name Conflict - Occurs when the student is already in the system, but their name is different than the one in this new file. Upon import, the existing full name will be replaced with the full name from the imported file.
The import can still proceed with warnings, but each one must be explicitly acknowledged by checking the "Acknowledge Warning" checkbox on the row.
Once there are no errors and all warnings have been acknowledged, the "Add All" button will become available.
Make sure to choose the correct market for this student by selecting from the dropdown at the top of the page.
When everything looks correct, press the Add All button and the import will proceed.
