To create a cohort using a CSV follow these instructions:

1. Select "Upload Multiple" from the drop-down list instead of "New Cohort."

2. Create a CSV file in Excel that follows the guidelines shown here. In addition to creating cohorts, you can also use this CSV to upload new students or managers.

3. Select a contract that any new users created by this CSV will be part of (if your program only has one active contract, it is selected by default). Check the box next to the course(s) those new users should gain access to.

4. Upload the CSV and click on the "Upload" button. If you receive an error message, check your file for errors and try again.
