Add Students & Room Assignments

Add students to a trip and assign them to rooms.

2 min read

Add the students going on the trip and assign each one to a room. Set up rooms first — see Adding Rooms and Occupancy — since you can’t assign a student to a room that doesn’t exist yet.

Open the Students Tab

Go to Trips, open the trip, and select the Students tab.

Import Students

Select Import Students (or Import, once you already have students on the trip). Paste or type one name per line under Manual Entry and select Import. For a spreadsheet-based import instead, see Importing Students from Excel.

Assign Rooms

In the student table, use the Room Assignment dropdown on each row to pick a room, or leave a student Unassigned for now. The header stats show Total Students, Total Occupancy, and how many students are still Unassigned. If a room ends up with more students than its occupancy allows, StayPut shows an occupancy warning and blocks saving until it’s resolved.

Save Assignments

Select Save Assignments. Use the trash icon on a row to remove a student, and Cancel to discard unsaved changes.

Add Students One at a Time (optional)

To add a single student without a full import, use the Add Student form below the table — enter a Name, optional Notes, and an optional Room, then select Add Student.
