View student access expiration dates
The roster shows expiration dates for students whose course access duration is shorter than the full length of the course. Upon enrollment students might be offered:
- Reduced-price access for a limited time.
- Temporary course access without payment for a limited time. Students waiting for financial aid, for example, can start their coursework and avoid missing deadlines. Temporary access requests are completed within 24-48 hours. Student might not receive an email to tell them when access is granted. If the request cannot be completed within 24-48 hours, students will receive an email to tell them access can't be granted or is delayed beyond normal time.
Expiration dates do not show in the roster for students with full course access.
- If available in your course, select Manage Course from the main menu, and then select Course Roster or in Mastering, Roles and Enrollment Status.
(In some courses, select Course Roster under Course Tools.)
- To find a student in the Name column, type a few letters of the student's name or email address in the search field . (Select Show All to clear your search results.) You can also choose the first letter of the student’s last name in the alphabetical list.

- The student's entire row is disabled, preventing changes to the student’s role or status.
