Update Program Status: Matriculate


The CAS/ASTA interface process will create the initial application program status of Admitted with a program action reason of UAPC. CAS/ASTA interface also sends updates to applications that add a row to admissions program stack with a program action of DATA and a program action reason of UAPC. The Update Application Status process involves updating an application’s program action and action reasons within CUNYfirst.

This process should be followed when the decision has been made to matriculate the application of a single student rather than though a batch process. When the Program Action is changed to MATR with the appropriate action reason, ownership of the student will be released to Student Records.

Note: This same functional procedure is used to change many types of student status, such as Deferment, Program Change, Readmit, Applicant Withdrawal, etc.
