Accepting or Declining Admission

Applicants can view their application status and accept or decline admission using self-service pages.

You can edit the text messages on both the Accept Admission self-service page and the Decline Admission self-service page. These messages are in the message catalog under the message set number 14200.

If the applicant accepts admission, the system inserts an effective-dated row on the Application Program Data page with a program action of Intention to Matriculate. The system sets the effective date to the day the student accepts admission.

If the student declines admission, the system inserts an effective-dated row on the Application Program Data page with a program action of Applicant Withdrawal. The system sets the effective date to the day the student declines admission.

Additionally, any data that is provided about the school that the student is going to attend and why they choose that institution over this one is inserted on the Application Student Response page. Each of the pages above is within the Maintain Applications component.
