Remove the "Financial Assistance" section and questions from the Needs & Interests page in the Standard application for all users |
| Should these questions be removed from the International Application? | |
Remove the "Athletic Interest" section and questions from the Needs & Interests page in the Standard Application But Make configurable to allow colleges to "opt-in" to keep the section if they are using the Title IX survey |
| Phase 1: Medium (removing it for all users, and doing the work to make it configurable included) Phase 2: Large (Removing it for all users and building in the opt-in feature would require a CAP story | |

NOTE: No change to the Homeless Youth or Foster Youth questions. These would ALWAYS display on screen as currently implemented. | ||
Hide this question unless user answers Yes to the Out-of-State activity question | |||
Hide this question unless user answers Yes to the Out-of-State activity question | |||
Hide this question unless user answers Yes to the Out-of-State activity question | |||

Here's the logic that should be implemented across the responses: 1 = First-time student in college (after leaving high school)
2 = Transfer student from another college (Keep existing logic) 3 = Returning student to this college after absent for a main term (Keep existing logic) Y = Enrolling in high school (or lower grade) and college at the same time
