In order to connect our colleges with newer, faster, and more secure data delivery, CCC Technology Center has begun the process to phase-out the legacy CCCApply Download Client and replace with the SuperGlue for Apply integrated framework. As of July 1, 2023, the Download Client will no longer be supported by the CCCTC. As of July 1, 2022, any new CCCApply student application data will be delivered via SuperGlue only. The Download Client will still be able to deliver data, but any new data (including legislated/mandated data) added to the applications will not be added to the Download Client and will be available through SuperGlue only.

From now until June 30, 2022, only new legislated/mandated application data will be added to the Download Client. Any new, additional data fields that are not required by law will be available through SuperGlue only. Examples of this type of optional/informational data can be found in the Student Success Suite Release Notes in the Changes to Data Fields & Delivery section.

With the phase-out of the CCCApply Download Client starting on July 1, 2022, all new CCCApply student application data will be delivered via SuperGlue only.
