# Archive Students

Archiving does not delete a student but removes them from the active roster of students. Archived students still have their accounts but are not assigned to any class or have access to class assignments. They no longer appear in the lists of active students found throughout the SIMnet Course Manager but may still log in to the student portal. Like other lists throughout SIMnet, you can sort the Archived Students list by clicking one of the headers (Student ID, Last Name, First Name) or filter the list.
