This guide provides you with documentation, reference guides, and direct links that answer common admissions questions about the BusinessCAS Applicant Portal, Configuration Portal, and WebAdMIT. It also contains resources that may help you work more efficiently throughout your admissions process. If you have additional questions or need further assistance, please contact your Account Manager and Client Success Manager.

Cycle Timeframes

Applicant Portal

The Applicant Portal opens in early September and closes in late March, over a 19-month period. You can view the specific cycle dates, including final processing dates (e.g., last date to submit transcripts, last date to request letters of recommendation, etc.), on the BusinessCAS Application Cycle Dates page.

Configuration Portal

Between early April and late August, configurations are entered into the prelaunch environment. The Account Manager and Client Success Manager review submitted configurations in August.

Admissions by Liaison and WebAdMIT

You can view new applicants and initiate a transfer settings in WebAdMIT shortly after the new cycle opens in early September.

Program Participation Requirements

Liaison requires all programs to designate two contacts at your institution who will receive all communication from BusinessCAS, including the configuration, application, and WebAdMIT launch notifications. Additionally, programs offered on BusinessCAS cannot accept applications from other sources.

Applicant Portal

The first three sections of the BusinessCAS application (i.e., Personal Information, Academic History, and Supporting Information) compose the core application. They contain questions that are commonly asked of applicants across all participating programs, such as an applicant's biographic information, standardized test scores, and experiences. The fourth section of the application is Program Materials, which is customized by you through the Configuration Portal (discussed in the next section).

You can access the BusinessCAS application and BusinessCAS Applicant Help Center to review the applicant experience. You can also create a test application in the Applicant Portal; we recommend creating a new account and adding "test" to your name (e.g., TestJohn TestDoe).

For a general overview of the applicant experience, review the following documents:

Applicant Processing Reference Guide: learn how applicants move through the application and Liaison processes applicant materials, such as transcripts and official test scores.
Application Statuses Reference Guide: review what each application status means and how you can interact with applicants at different stages.
- Review the requirements for the BusinessCAS Complete application status.
BusinessCAS Quick Start Guide and FAQs: a suggested timeline for completing and submitting the application, links to important pages including cycle dates and fees, and a FAQs section.

You can direct any applicant inquiries related to the application to BusinessCAS Customer Service.

Configuration Portal

Use the Configuration Portal Quick Start Guide to make sure you configure your program(s) efficiently and completely in the prelaunch environment. Be sure to check out your CAS's configuration options and review the best practices found throughout. If any optional sections of the application are required for your program (e.g., experiences, test scores, etc.), you'll want to note this on your program home page.

Once you've configured your program, you'll need to have it approved by the Account Manager and Client Success Manager. Then they will approve it or contact you if additional changes must be made. Once your program is approved, it will move into the Applicant Portal and be available to applicants, starting on the program's open date.

When indicating the college transcripts and coursework entry you require, note that BusinessCAS does not verify applicant coursework, so an applicant's final application status is Complete.

Additional Information for Program Configurations

Use the following documents to manage your program-specific features, including coupon codes and CAS GRE codes.

Application Coupons Reference Guide: learn how to request coupons to offset application fees and disperse them to applicants. To purchase coupons, use the CAS Coupon Code and Invitation Code Request Form.
Fee Collection, Reconciliation, and Remittance: an explanation of the application fee structure.
Invitation Codes Reference Guide: learn how to offer individual deadline extensions directly to applicants. To purchase invitation codes, use the CAS Coupon Code and Invitation Code Request Form.

Working with the Dashboard: the Dashboard in Admissions by Liaison is the landing page where you arrive after logging in.
Navigating the Applications Grid: the Applications section is the central hub for viewing, editing, and processing applications to any of your programs.
Navigating an Application: review your applications and learn how to edit the layout of this page.
