Using Application Tracker (version 1.16 or higher)

Note: Application Tracker 1.16 or higher must be used with Application Requirements Manager 1.120 or higher. 

Application (App) Tracker is a student-facing portal that allows applicants to view the status of their applications. Students can see which items, if any, are still outstanding for their application to be reviewed, as well as the status of any items received by the institution.

Items displayed to students include fields from their Contact and Application records, as well as Checklist Items. 

The Application Tracker can be custom configured by each institution, both in terms of administrative setup and the UI of the student-facing page. You can also use Applicant Dashboard to display Application Requirements to applicants.

Customizing Application Tracker

  1. Navigate to Setup and search for Custom Settings
  2. Click Manage next to App Tracker Preferences
  3. Click Edit next to App Tracker Settings
