Implementation Project Overview

...

  1. Visit the Get Started with the International Application page on the CCCApply Project Site. 
     
  2. Attend the IA Implementation Overview Webinar on March 10, 2016 for high level overview and Q&A.  This session is recommended for all colleges interested in implementing the International Application as soon as it is released.
     
  3. Schedule the Project Overview Meeting (required). This meeting is required; however, due to the large number of colleges who have expressed interest in getting started this Spring 2016, we ask that you wait until you have confirmed your deployment date and it is within three months of the scheduled overview meeting.
     
  4. Attend the CCCApply 2016 Annual Workshop at Fullerton College on March 22nd. Register today. There is an International Application demo and implementation session scheduled for 10:00AM, followed by an open computer lab session where support technicians will be available to answer additional questions about setting up the Administrator (terms, majors, rules, supplemental questions) and/or using the Report Center for looking up submitted applications or running reports.  
     
  5. Advisory Committee members are invited to get started early. A User account to access the Pilot Administrator has been set up for each International App Advisory Committee member. A User account is required to access the Administrator & Report Center, which means you may not be able to submit a test application in the Pilot Administrator if there are no open Terms and Majors, which are required to submit an application.  For more information about accessing your Pilot account, please see below.

International Application on the Pilot (Beta) Environment

Colleges can view the application - and submit test applications - by clicking on the Application URL below (remember to replace the three XXX with your college MIS code first).  

...

Application URL: https://pilot.intl.opencccapply.net/gateway/intl?cccMisCode=XXX

NOTE: Replace the "XXX" with your MIS code to access your college's branded application.


Instructions for Setting Up Terms & Majors (and Users) in the Pilot Administrator

  1. IMPORTANT: You must obtain your unique college Administrator and Report Center URLs from your IT team (or Admissions staff) to access these staff tools. The Tech Center does not have your URLs - these were set up by your IT staff when you first implemented the OpenCCCApply standard application. You will need both sets of URLS:  Pilot site Administrator & Report Center, AND the Production Administrator & Report Center.  You'll need the Pilot URLs for testing and implementation, but you'll need the Production URLs before you can go live to students (after March 31, 2016).
     
  2. Login to the Pilot Administrator using your Username and Password from your college system. 

    College staff user accounts are created based on your college  MIS code and the level of authorization privileges approved by your college.  


    U = Data Use Only.  Access to all tabs in the Administrator except the Users tab for your college or district. 
    A = Add User.  Access to all tabs in the Adminstrator, including the Users tab, for your college or district. 

    NOTE:  An "Add User" account was created for each of the Advisory Committee members back in October 2015. If you are not an Advisory Committee member and would like to access your college/district Pilot Administrator for the International Application, please contact Patty Donohue, pdonohue@ccctechcenter.org for assistance.  Once the first "Add User" account is created for your college or district, that user can create other users for your college or district. For more information on setting up User accounts, please download the CCCApply Administrator User Guide for details. 
     
  3. Select "International Application" from the Application drop down menu on the home page of the Pilot Administrator. 
  4. Select your college from the "College" dropdown menu on the home page of the Pilot Administrator.
  5. Navigate to the Terms tab. Following the instructions for adding or editing Terms in the CCCApply Administrator User Guide, set the "Open, Close, Start and End dates for a Term so that it will appear in the Term Applying For section of the International application.
  6. Navigate to the Majors tab. Following the instructions for adding or editing Majors in the CCCApply Administrator User Guide, ensure one or more Majors are active by configuring the settings for one or more Majors.
  7. Navigate to the English Proficiency tab. Using the instructions for setting up the English Proficiency section of the application, determine if your college has an English Proficiency requirement and, if so, configure the English Proficiency Requirement <eng_proficiency_req> and English Proficiency Type <eng_proficiency_type> fields to display this section in the International Application.  Please read this section carefully in the CCCApply Administrator User Guide. If you have an English Proficiency requirement for admission, you must set this section up carefully otherwise your student will be blocked from completing this section and submitting an applicaton for admission.
  8. Optional Rules:  Ensure that any Rules you choose to implement are set up correctly or you risk blocking your student from submitting an application. See the CCCApply Administrator User Guide for details.
  9. Optional Supplemental Questions: Ensure that any supplemental questions that you choose to implement are set up correctly or risk blocking your student from submitting an application.  See the CCCApply Administrator User Guide for details.

NOTE:  If you need assistance setting up your Pilot Administrator settings, please visit the CCCTechnology.info support site and post your question or request. CCC Technology Center support technicians are monitoring the site Monday - Friday, 7:00AM - 4:00PM PST.  Your questions will be answered in the site so that other colleges may benefit from the responses.
