Problem / Issue
"2. High School attended and expected graduation date, problems with Middle school – these students end up as non-residents because they cannot choose the name of a high school.
This issue was reported on the CACCRAO Memo sent to Steering on 5.11.16. It was also echoed separately, ironically, at the same time, from several other colleges, including Robin Armour, Los Medanos College. Since Middle School students cannot answer the "Last HS Attended" question, they are unable to complete that section and get accurately defined as residents.
Similar to the Homeschool issue (some HomeSchools are not on the School Finder list and students having trouble entering in school name manually).
Proposed Solution
Call for a sub-committee to review this issue from an Education page standpoint, and a residency standpoint.
Residency Area B.
Notes
This issue was combined with the issue above, though it doesn't seem to be related. Patty to check in with Diane Traversi, College of Marin, to get more information.
Issue 2B: Would like it to just be a month and year – and eliminate the day. When the graduation date is in the future – students have a hard time understanding that they need to check “high school graduate” for the summer and fall sessions after graduation – results in a stalling of the application process.
