Notes

One entity must be returned for each reference period that the StudentCourseSession overlaps with. Typically, we would expect either 3 or 4 entities to be returned for active students per Student course session (for standard or non-standard students respectively). The reference period that the FTE in ReferencePeriodStudentLoad.RPSTULOAD applies to is identified by the ReferencePeriodStudentLoad.YEAR and ReferencePeriodStudentLoad.REFPERIOD fields.Generally, all entities associated with a Student course session should add up to equal no more than 100, unless the student is on an accelerated course or studying at a greater intensity.
