Other Important Interface Changes from New OpenCCC Account System
The most significant changes implemented to the CCCApply applications, including the CC Promise Grant online application, are related to the redesign of the Edit Account service removed from the CCCApply applications with the release of the Student Success Suite V.1.0 release in January 2022. These changes include the display, review, and edit Account functionality that ensures the user’s account information is up-to-date and accurate as it is passed to the college through the CCCApply submitted applications.
These changes include moving the ability for users to view and edit their account information from inside the CCCApply applications to the My Applications page, the redesign and renaming of the Account Information page, and adding several account fields - which were removed from the OpenCCC Account Creation process - into CCCApply.
