# Adding a new student ### **Add Student** Go into the [Contacts](https://help.pickatime.com/books/pta-management-guide/page/contacts) section of the Admin UI. 1. Search first for the student by name. 2. If you do not find the student, then click on the Add > Student... button and fill in the fields on the Add New Student form. You only need to fill in the Student First Name and Student Last Name. Click on the Add button. ### **Connect a Student with the Parent** 1. Search again for the Student by name. 2. Click on the Student (on the left-hand side) and then click on the small Parent-Students Map tab - When you select a student (the contact has a StudentID), under the Parent List, you will only see the names of any parents associated with the student. 3. To connect a parent, click the green "Add" button under the Parents List section. The Select Person dialog box will appear with a list of contacts who are without the StudentID value. Select the parent and then click the Add button and the contact will be added to the parent list. ### **Enroll the Student in Classes** 1. Go to the Class Editor section. 2. Click on the Teacher Name, and then the Class. 3. In the white entry box above the student roster on the right-hand side, enter your student name in the correct format for your account (either Last Name, First Name, or First Name Last Name). When the system finds a match, press Enter. Repeat for each class the student belongs to. To determine the format your account is using, see how the other students in the class are displayed.
