Now, let’s look at each column.

Edit Column
The Edit column is used to change the status of the application to DGS Approved or if it needs to be withdrawn, rejected or copied to another term.
Degree Application Processing-Grad School
Clicking on the pencil, next to the student’s name will open up a dropdown box. Select the appropriate status.

DGS Approved – this indicates that the DGS has approved the application for degree. This changes the status from a “0” to a “1” in the GUI.
Reject – this rejects the application and changes the status to a “3” in the GUI. This status means the student did not meet degree requirements.
Withdraw – this will withdraw the application and changes the status to a “4” in the GUI. Withdraw is used when the student requests the application to be withdrawn.
Copy – this will copy the application to another term. You will be prompted to enter the academic year and session. This changes the status to a “6” in the GUI. You cannot copy a degree app that has status of “0” (change it to DGS Approved first).

Approve – this is used to indicate the student has met all degree requirements and the Registrar’s Office can post the degree. This changes the application to a status of “2” in the GUI. This does not award the degree but “clears” the student to have the degree posted. Most users will not have this role.

Once you select your status, it will now appear in the box. However, you aren’t finished. You must also click on “Update” if you wish to proceed with this change.
Click on “Cancel” if you do not wish to proceed and the status will remain at what it was before you attempted to change it.

Notice the status will now be changed on your report if you clicked on “Update.” Sometimes the system is slow to return the new status.
Alert: You can only update one student at time. You cannot change the status of several students and then “update” - this will not work – you must “update” one student at time.
