Admissions Improvements

Since Sprint E3, we’ve been slowly improving the Admissions module to allow administrators to invite applicants to the Admissions Application process. We’ve ported over the automatic email that is generated when an application is submitted. Previously, this was only available on the Online Embedded Form.

Master Scheduler – Distribute Courses

We’ve added a new section in Step 3 of the Master Scheduler, allowing users to “Distribute Courses”. With this feature, you can specify a group of courses that need to be distributed evenly between the available periods.

So for example, you may have several 6th grade level courses for all your 6th Graders. Can you include all these courses into a single group, and the Schedule will distribute those courses when you use the “Run” function in Step 4. This will ensure that courses do not overlap, especially if you only have a single cohort of students.
