Application section

Use the Application section to create and update application information received by an applicant. An unlimited number of applications may be entered for each applicant per term.

The following fields are in this section.

Fields Descriptions
Entry Term Term for which the applicant has applied. This value comes from the Term field on the Term Code Validation (STVTERM) page. It cannot be changed.
Application Number Number of the admissions application for a specific term. Applications are numbered in the sequence in which they are entered. This field is maintained by the system.
Application Preference Used to enter an application preference value. A value in the Application Preference field helps delineate a hierarchical ranking among multiple applications from a single person for the same entry term. The Application Preference value is displayed on other admissions forms that have an Application Summary section.
Application Date Date of the student's application. The system date is used if no date is entered.
Admission Type Admission type of the applicant.
Student Type Type of student the applicant will be classified as if they are accepted. If the application comes from Recruiting and no student type was specified in Recruiting, the default value is 0 (undeclared). This value comes from the Student Type Code Validation (STVSTYP) page. It can be changed.
Residence Residence type of the applicant. If the application comes from Recruiting and no student type was specified in Recruiting, the default value is 0 (undeclared). This value comes from the Residence Code Validation (STVRESD) page. It can be changed.
Site Site to which the applicant is applying.
Full or Part Time Radio group that specifies the prospect's intended load of study. Valid values are Full Time, Part Time, and None.
Outstanding Requirements Check box that indicates whether any mandatory checklist items exist for this application without a received date associated with them. The default is unchecked.
Application Status Status of the application. There are three system-generated values that must exist on the Admission Application Status Code Validation (STVAPST) page. They are Incomplete (I), Complete (C), and Decision Made (D). This value comes from the Code field on STVAPST. It can be changed.

Default values are based on the value of the Received Date, Last Request, and First Request fields automatically generated on the Checklist window in SAAADMS.

Choices are:

I-Incomplete application. This is generated when you first access each application based on the outstanding admissions request items. Incomplete (I) is generated if there are admissions request items automatically generated from the Admissions Checklist Rules (SAACHKB) page. The status is set to I as mandatory items are added to the Checklist section without received dates. This value is stored in the database as I.

C-Application complete. This is generated when you first access each application based on the outstanding admissions request items. If there are no checklist items, a status of complete (C) is generated. When all mandatory items are received, the status changes from I to C. This value is stored in the database as C.

D-Decision made. This value is stored in the database as D.

When a significant decision is entered on the Admissions Decision (SAADCRV) page, the status becomes a D. A significant decision is noted on the Admission Application Decision Code Validation (STVAPDC) page. Even if the status is an I (incomplete) based on the checklist items, the status will change to a D if a significant decision is entered on the Admissions Decision (SAADCRV) page. The system does not automatically override a status of D. Defaults are based on the checklist items.

Application Status Date Date the status of the application was entered or changed. Today's date defaults in when an application status is entered. The date indicates who created or changed the application status. The description will display when the system updates the value to either (S)ystem or (U)ser. This value is maintained by the system and cannot be changed.
