What’s new in Banner? BANNER has several improvements over SIS. Some of them are: We used to have max. of 7 pre-requisites in SIS for any course, where as in BANNER we do not have any limit. Better control over course registration restrictions according to College/Level/Class/Major. In SIS, there is no co-requisites restriction, where as in BANNER we can enforce the restrictions. In SIS (degree audit), the maximum number of electives / free- electives is 80, where as in BANNER CAPP (Curriculum Advising & Program Planning) there is no limit.

Therefore its students’ responsibility to check this /mobile from time to time for any messages. Due to misuse of conditional DROP/ADD feature internationally, it is not in BANNER presently
