The Applicant role is the first enrollment stage for potential students.

Bravura process

Data structure

  • Applicants are Banner users who have applied to Appalachian State.
  • No AD or LDAP record is created for new Applicants, therefore they do not have access to App State systems.
  • Bravura creates a Google account for new Applicants. They are placed in the Inactive Student OU.
  • It is possible for a current or former staff or faculty users to apply to App State and be placed into this role. In this case, they will still have their respective LDAP/AD records.
  • A user with a primary Applicant role will be deactivated regardless of previous role assignments.
  • A user with a primary, active role affiliation will be active regardless of an Applicant role assignment.

Activation

  • Admissions creates applicant Banner accounts using their Slate software.

Departure

  • Leaving the Applicant is accomplished either by
    • failure of acceptance or
    • an attendance invitation.
  • Unaccepted Applicants will no longer appear in Bravura when Admissions withdraws their consideration.
  • Withdrawn Applicants will leave behind their inactive Google account. IT Systems schedules purges to clear these accounts.
  • Unlike other formerly active accounts, there is no concern for username reuse, making username retention unnecessary.
  • Accepted Applicants will transition to the Admitted role.
