    1. Click "here" to download the "Multiple students CSV template."

    2. Once the template is downloaded, open the template to add student names in Column A and usernames in column B. Make sure that each student's username is unique within the class. The Username is how the student will access their unique seat in the Class.

    3. Save the template as a CSV file.

    4. Drag and drop your file and click on "Add Students."

    5. Once students are added, they will appear in the "Students" tab.
