Cogran allows registration for programs to be restricted age, grade, and gender. This option is available for programs and memberships. Eligibility applies automatically during registration, when a customer enters the information about their participant. Programs in a customer’s cart may not be available to every participant. 

When used: To ensure that the right participant finds it simple to register for the right program.

AGES require an age cutoff date, which is set on the Registration Period. (See below for more details).  GRADES and GENDER are matched on the specific information entered about a participant.

Age Cutoff Date

Cogran automatically calulates that a participant is eligible for a program. Participants enter a birthdate, and Cogran calculates current age at the time of this date to ensure programs are evergreen and eligibility is alway current. 

If an age is set on the program, the participant’s birthday must be on or before this date in the relevant year. The age on the program plus this date will filter the participants eligibility for the programs in this registration period.
