New Features and Enhancements
Cross-Portal Enhancements
Disclaimer: on rare occasions, a new feature or enhancement may be moved to a future release or otherwise subject to change.
Share WebAdMIT Interview Schedules with Applicants in CAS Applicant Portal
This enhancement must be approved by the CAS association or UniCAS client for use in the next cycle. If activated, this enhancement will be available for all participating programs in the next cycle. CAS association and UniCAS clients: contact a member of your account team for more information or to enable this feature.
If available to you, you can share interview dates and times configured in WebAdMIT with applicants in the CAS Applicant Portal. When setting up interviews, you can choose to share your selected interview information or invite applicants to schedule their own interview dates. This enhancement improves the interview scheduling process by enabling applicants to self-select interview times and consolidating interview information within the application.
WebAdMIT
When configuring Interview templates, you can select the Template can be shared with the CAS checkbox. Once selected, you can then configure how your interview will display to applicants, schedules that the applicant can select from, and a time zone that you will conduct your interviews in. Additionally, you can create an email template to alert applicants to the interview invitation.
Note that if you allow applicants to self-select their interview times, they can only choose the dates and times you have listed in the Interview template. Their selection appears in WebAdMIT after they save it in the CAS Applicant Portal.
CAS Applicant Portal
Once an applicant has an interview set up in WebAdMIT, they will:
- Receive a notification alert within the application with the interview invitation information.
- View a What's Next tile that includes a link to the My Interviews section.
- Access a new My Interviews section in the My Profile section. From here, applicants can either self-select their interview times or view the one you preselected.
CAS Applicant Portal Enhancements
Disclaimer: on rare occasions, a new feature or enhancement may be moved to a future release or otherwise subject to change.
Retire Transcript ID Form and Simplify Transcript Ordering
This enhancement is automatically available for use by all CASs on the 3+ platform that process official transcripts and foreign coursework evaluations. No action is required on the part of any association, school, or program. Contact a member of your account team for more information.
For CASs on the 3+ platform that request or require applicants to submit official transcripts or foreign coursework evaluations, applicants previously had to download a Transcript ID Form (also known as the Transcript Request Form (TRF)) that included their transcript's unique barcode ID and submit it to their school's Registrar's office. The school then had to send a copy of the official transcript with the Transcript ID Form so that Liaison could properly match an applicant's transcript to their application.
Liaison's transcript and foreign evaluation Processing team has significantly improved transcript matching so that the Transcript ID Form is no longer needed. Now, when applicants order an official transcript or foreign coursework evaluation from the application, rather than downloading a separate form, they can instead copy their transcript's unique barcode ID (and if available, full mailing address) and submit it with their request to the Registrar's office. Additionally, the instructions around the transcript and foreign coursework evaluation request process have been updated and shortened. This enhancement simplifies the applicant's transcript request process and eliminates unnecessary supplemental documents.
WES Preferred Partner Feature
This enhancement must be approved by the CAS association or UniCAS client for use in the next cycle. If activated, this enhancement will be available for all participating programs in the next cycle. CAS association and UniCAS clients: contact a member of your account team for more information or to enable this feature.
World Education Service (WES) processes foreign transcript evaluations and partners with many CASs to provide this service. With this enhancement, a CAS can indicate that WES is their preferred evaluation service, which makes the WES electronic evaluation request flow more prominent, while still allowing applicants to choose an alternate evaluation service.
