Checklist Monitoring and Student Reminders
The Office of the Registrar monitors completion of the student registration checklists through two reporting tools:
AgilePoint Registration Status Report - Used to send out email reminders to all students in the selected program/class. The email to students lists the specific items still outstanding on the student checklist. 2. PowerBI report - Used to pull completion of checklist by program/class. This report is located the PowerBI at Home>Legacy>Registrar>Registration Status-AYXX
Important Note: Both the AgilePoint and PowerBI reports are not available until 60 days prior to the student group term start date. For example, if the fall term begins on 8/1, these tools are available 60 days prior to 6/1. Registrar office must request a list of incoming student names, DMU & non-DMU email, to send out welcome email to incoming students as the checklist open 90 days before the term start, prior to the 60 day limit. Office of the Registrar will manually email the students when Phase I of the checklist.
