Why is the CCCApply Download Client being retired?

Developed in 2011, the CCCApply Download Client was not designed for high-performance integrated data delivery and is not scalable. This legacy system is being retired in favor of the faster, more secure, and real-time data delivery over the SuperGlue integrations framework.

Do colleges have to stop using the Download Client for transactions delivery? What if we don’t?

Eventually, yes. The CCCTC has begun a phase-out process that will allow colleges up to 12 months to transition away from the download system. Our Implementation Engineers are standing by to support your move before June 2023.

Is there a way to resend transactions (application records) similar to the Reset Downloads utility?
