In order to get submitted student application data to your college's student information system (SIS), you must download it from the the cloud to a computer at your college and then import it into your SIS. The Download Client is the tool that you use to download the data for student applications to your college. The Download Client includes several options for defining the data format, which application fields you want to download, etc.

    Note

    Windows: Oracle Java Runtime Environment, 7-Zip, etc.

    Mac: Oracle Java Runtime Environment, Apple JAR launcher, etc.

  3. Configure your job and format XML files. You should have a pair (job and format) for each application (i.e. a pair for the CCCApply Standard application, a pair for the CCCApply International application, and a pair for the BOG Fee Waiver application). Use the directions in the CCCApply Download Client Guide to configure these files, following the directions from step 4 in the "Unzipping, Installing, and Configuring the Download Client" section. 
    1. The job XML file is where you define the environment you will be downloading from. 
    2. You will want to do this for Pilot first, to make sure the downloads are working correctly.
  4. Run the download against your Pilot environment from a command prompt (Windows and Unix options are offered in the CCCApply Download Client Guide).
  5. Check the downloaded data against the actual application(s) submitted and what your SIS needs, to check you are downloading all the fields that you need.
  6. Run the download against your Production environment.
  7. Import the downloaded data into your SIS.
