Release Summary

  • Update to SSN Question Text

  • Improvements to the Application Submission Code

  • Other Release News

Language Change to SSN Question to Support Title V Requirements

A minor text change was made to the Social Security Number (SSN) question in CCCApply, changing  the language regarding an undocumented and/or nonresident student as an “nonresident alien” will now read  “a person who is not a citizen or national of the United States”. This comes in response to the statewide language changes adopted in Title V for AB540. 

 

Fraud Prevention Enhancements

As part of our ongoing efforts to combat application and financial aid fraud across our system, several new enhancements were made in this release to better detect and defend against bad actors and generally increase overall security. For security reasons details of these enhancements will not be posted publicly or shared externally outside of the CCCTC Private Fraud/Spam Support forum or via private, secure communications with college staff.
