Identify and document production version implementation requirements & processes 


Gather requirements and implement ability to filter "majors / programs of study" and/or "major categories" for non-credit application

The objectives for college user testing are:  

  • Ensure colleges are able to download the legacy race group, hispanic, and race ethnicity fields data in the original (unchanged) format by doing nothing to their downloads
  • Ensure colleges can continue to get the legacy data required for MIS reporting;
  • Ensure colleges are able to get the legacy data AND successfully download the new data <race_ethnic_full>, when they add the new field to their Format XML file and update the jar file


Gather requirements and implement ability to configure separate supplemental questions for non-credit application

Note

All Changes Are Backwards Compatible - No Actions Required: All the front-end changes deployed in the Non-Credit Application path within CCCApply Standard Application (user interface changes, hidden pages and questions, disabling of web services, etc.) should NOT AFFECT YOUR STANDARD APPLICATION. All Non-Credit Application back-end changes are optional and not mandatory for colleges to implement. Admissions, Financial Aid, and IT staff can rest assured there are no action REQUIRED by colleges that do not wish to implement the Non-Credit Application.
