The following text was added to the top of the Education page: “Your responses will be kept private and secure and will not be used for discriminatory purposes”.

The following text was added to the top of the Demographic page, “Your responses will be kept private and secure and will not be used for discriminatory purposes”.
Standardization of Help Information Using Tool-Tip Icons
All onscreen instances of pop-up help hyperlinks have been replaced with help icons and will display in a custom-titled window when the help icon is clicked. The onscreen and help text will not change.
Prior to this standardization work, some instances of additional help information (pop-up help) was available to the user through hyperlinks; when the user clicked the hyperlink, the Help modal would launch displaying the information. This change has ensured that all help text and additional information is identified using the Help icon and will display in the Help modal when the icon is clicked.
Note: In cases where an existing help icon is displayed, the help text has been added to a custom modal. Custom modals will have a custom title, while standard help text continues to display with a “Help” title.

This section describes the enhancements, bug fixes, and other updates completed in the CCCApply Administrator.
| Note |

New fields will NOT be added to the CCCApply Download Client (See CCCApply Download Client Begins End-Of-Life Cycle.) |
CCCApply Download Client Begins End-of-Life Cycle
In FY2021-22, the CCC Tech Center began outlining steps to sunset the CCCApply Download Client as a supported data delivery service for the CCCApply applications. End-of-life activities include moving the Download Client to maintenance mode and communicating to colleges that all only new state legislative and MIS mandated data fields will be added to the Download Client moving forward. OpenCCC and CCCApply application data fields will only be delivered via the SuperGlue for Apply service.
As a reminder, the CCCApply Download Client is backwards compatible and will still be able to deliver data for existing Account and CCCApply data fields.
