  4. Expand each dropdown and select the information corresponding to the course you want to cross-list: Course Number, Associated Department, and Start Term. You do not need to select an End Term unless you already know there’s an intended end term.

  5. Select either “Save” button to save your cross-listed course. If your save is successful, the following status message will appear at the top of the page when it reloads: “Course Associations Saved.”

  6. You can verify the existence of the cross-listing by looking for a black flag icon in the “MW/X-List” column on the Academic Year Planning page. To see the other section that a course is combined with and whether it’s a Meets With or Cross-Listing, hover over the flag icon with your mouse to make the course info appear as a tooltip.
