- Last updated
- Save as PDF
Overview
Applicants can edit their CAS application when their application status is In Progress or Undelivered. When their application status is Received, Complete, or Verified, the following behavior is observed for standard question blocks. Note that if a CAS has custom question blocks, the CAS decides whether those question blocks are locked after application submission.
To learn how applicant data moves into WebAdMIT, review the Transferring Applicant Data into WebAdMIT guide.
Extended Profile
All questions in the Extended Profile section are custom to a CAS, and each CAS determines if an applicant can edit their answers after submitting their application. To learn your CAS's rules, contact a member of your account team.

Quadrant 2 – Academic History
If your CAS uses verification, applicants can't make changes to their colleges, degrees, and coursework from the time they submit until their application becomes verified. Once verified, an applicant can:
- Add new colleges and degrees.
- Edit existing colleges and degrees where attendance is In Progress.
- Add new coursework for new colleges and new terms/academic sessions.
If your CAS does not use verification, your CAS will decide whether parts of colleges, degrees, and coursework can be edited after applicants submit their applications.
To confirm your CAS's configurations, contact a member of your account team.
