Close an Application

At the end of the admissions cycle, it is common to close applications that are no longer in consideration. To close an application, the application must be in one of the following final statuses: Admitted, Denied, Withdraw during Review, Pending Matriculation, Matriculated, or Application Incomplete. If you want the option to archive a person record at the time you close an application, you must close the application from the person record. The steps to close an application differ depending on whether you want to close an application from the application record or close one or more applications from the All Applications grid.
