Creating a Note on a Student Record

How to add a note in SS&E

Utilize the Notes section to capture and share vital student information that is not found in the standard SS&E fields. 

  • Notes can be entered by anyone with access to SS&E.
  • Note Types are role-based. Only users with a permitted role can create and view notes associated with a specific note type.
  • Notes allow for a transparent view into the student record and allows for the student success network to stay aware of student issues, communications and anything that may be relevant to student success.

To create a “note,” click on “Note” from the student record action menu bar:
