@NolanAustin Is the student currently in the course utilizing the Observer role? If so, if your institution's permissions permit you should be able to:
- Click People in the course navigation menu.
 - Click the three dots to the far right of the student's name.
 - Select Edit Role.
 - Change the role in the dropdwon and click the Update button.

Hi @NolanAustin,
As @james_whalley said, this would only be possible if your institution's permissions let you. The steps to do this can be found in the How do I edit user roles in a course? - Instructure Community - 748 support article.
