Release 6 – June 30, 2024

Applicants Can Delete and Replace CAS-level Documents After Submission

For CASs that collect documents in the Supporting Information section, this enhancement must be approved by the CAS association or UniCAS client for use in the current cycle. If activated, this enhancement is available for all participating programs. CAS association and UniCAS clients: contact a member of your account team for more information or to enable this feature.

For some CASs, applicants can upload CAS-level documents in the Documents section under the Supporting Information quadrant, and those documents are shared with all programs the applicant applies to. Currently, applicants cannot delete or replace those documents once they submit their application, and instead are advised to send their programs any updated files. With this enhancement, applicants will be able to delete existing and upload new documents after they submit their application. This allows applicants to more easily manage their application materials and deliver updated information to programs more efficiently.

If this enhancement is activated for your CAS, be aware that there is no audit trail of an applicant’s previously uploaded or deleted documents.

Additionally, note that this enhancement does not impact program-level documents in the Program Materials quadrant. Applicants cannot delete or replace program-level documents once they submit their application.

CAS Applicant Portal

In the Documents section under the Supporting Information quadrant, applicants now have the option to delete and upload a new document after they submit their application.

Liaison Outcomes and WebAdMIT

You can view the most recently uploaded document in Liaison Outcomes and WebAdMIT.

CAS-level Unofficial Foreign Transcript Labels

For CASs that collect unofficial foreign transcripts in the Academic History section, this enhancement must be approved by the CAS association or UniCAS client for use in the current cycle. If activated, this enhancement is available for all participating programs. CAS association and UniCAS clients: contact a member of your account team for more information or to enable this feature.

For some CASs, applicants can upload a copy of their foreign transcript in the Colleges Attended section under the Academic History quadrant. Currently, the application does not differentiate between foreign transcript and foreign evaluation labels and only uses a "foreign evaluation" label, which can be misleading. With this enhancement, CASs can choose to replace "foreign evaluation" with "foreign transcript" to accurately reflect the desired documents applicants should submit.

CAS Applicant Portal

Applicants will see "foreign transcript" listed in the application, and this updated language will be in all instructions and tooltips.

Liaison Outcomes

The label change is reflected in Liaison Outcomes, and uploaded foreign transcripts will be labeled as Foreign Transcripts.

WebAdMIT

The label change does not affect WebAdMIT, and uploaded foreign transcripts will continue to be labeled as Foreign Evaluation.

Letter Type Name Listed for Program-level Recommendations

For CASs that collect program-level letters of recommendation under the Program Materials section, this enhancement must be approved by the CAS association or UniCAS client for use in the current cycle. If activated, this enhancement is available for all participating programs. CAS association and UniCAS clients: contact a member of your account team for more information or to enable this feature.

Some CASs allow applicants to request different types of letters of recommendation at the CAS level (under the Supporting Information section) and program level (under the Program Materials section) (e.g., graduate credential program recommendation, recommendation with a letter upload, etc.). If your CAS has different recommendation types, a Letter Type column can appear in the Evaluations panel.

With this enhancement, the recommendation type name for program-level recommendations now appears in this column; previously, it was blank. The recommendation type name already appeared for CAS-level recommendations.

Additionally, a new Evaluation Sub Type field that corresponds with the program-level recommendation type name is available in the List Manager and Export Manager under the Evaluators field grouping. These enhancements make applicant evaluation information more easily and readily available.
