### Customizing Enrollment Start and End Dates in TUIO

TUIO allows flexible start and end dates for each enrollment. These dates are initially set in the **Program Settings** and can be adjusted for individual students when creating an enrollment.

#### **Default Behavior**

**Start Date:**

- If the enrollment is created **before** the program start date, the **program start date** is used by default.
- If the enrollment is created **after** the program has started, the **enrollment create date** is used.

**End Date:**

- By default, the **program end date** is used, representing the last day of the school year or service period.

For late-start enrollments, you may need to manually adjust the start date if the student’s actual start day differs from the enrollment create date.

---

#### **Start Date Configuration Options**

You can select from the following options in your Program Settings:

- **Always use program start date**  
  Ideal for creating multiple enrollments after the program has already begun. Ensures consistency with the original program schedule.
- **Always use enrollment create date**  
  Automatically sets the start date to when the enrollment is created—helpful if you're enrolling students as they join.
- **Always leave blank**  
  Requires manual entry of the start date for each enrollment. This is useful if enrollment start dates vary and you want to avoid automatic defaults that may be inaccurate.

---

#### **End Date Configuration Options**

Customize how the enrollment end date is handled with these options:

- **Always use enrollment start date + specified number of days**  
  Best for rolling admissions or fixed-term programs (e.g., a 90-day course). You can define the duration in days to automatically calculate the end date.
- **Always leave blank**  
  Useful when each student has a unique end date. Ensures the correct end date is selected manually during enrollment.

---

#### **Creating an Enrollment**

Once your preferred settings are configured in the Program settings, you can confirm or customize the start and end dates when creating a new enrollment from the **Enrollments**, **Registrations** or **Students** tab.
