What Partners Need to Do:

If you have elected to auto-add new titles to your catalog, then no further action is required. Otherwise, you will need to add these courses manually in the Online Administration Center. Active students in retiring courses won’t be affected and can complete their courses. Pending students need to be active by the removal date for all courses or they will be dropped. 

If you are unsure if you have the auto-add feature set up, contact your Account Manager.
