This type of Student Association is first established based on the Organization creating the Student. When the Create Student service is used, the organization on the request is associated to the student.

For example, if a PASI Client representing Edmonton Public School Division successfully submits a Create Student request, Edmonton Public School Division becomes associated to the student. This association remains in place until the student becomes enrolled at a school.

If an Student School Enrolment does not get recorded for the student, the association will remain in place for a period of 2 years following the date the student record was created.
