NextGen Admissions
• Three key areas that would help meet departmental needs, while also furthering the goal of an overall paperless process: – Faculty application evaluation, review, rating and
decision – Academic program-level configurability* – Improvements in the Applicant Experience
*While base-line admission criteria exist at the University level, many if not most academic programs have additional criteria, including for example, supplemental questions, varying priority deadlines, etc.

NextGen Admissions •The most efficient admissions model is the enterprise approach, with all graduate programs using the same platform for reviewing applications and decision processing.
– Minimizes overall investment in infrastructure and human resources to manage and support the system
– Allow applicants & departments to acquire information quicker and avoid delays that result in confusing “out-of-sync” information and miscommunications
– Reduce the risk of errors and duplication on behalf of the applicant and administrator.
– Reduce the amount of overall confusion caused by having multiple systems or solutions.

NextGen Admissions • Recommendations, Issues and Plans:
– Partnership between Colleges, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) and the Office of Strategic Initiatives (all major student administrative service units report through this office) to deliver NextGen
– Build a 12 month time-line project – Appoint a small project steering team consisting of partner
representation as well as representation from the academic department level.
– The window available for starting this project will open in early November 2012 after completion of the SIS upgrade

Academic Program Planning New UNC-GA Guidelines
• Two-step Process (Appendix A - request authorization to plan then Appendix C - authorization to establish) • Appendix A approval (4-weeks bachelors and masters; 8 weeks doctoral • University then has 4 months to prepare and submit Appendix C • Appendix C approval (3 months bachelors and masters; 6 months doctoral) • No more than 3 programs at GA at one time

Guiding principles to be used to inform development and prioritization
1. Consistent with our mission and niche in the
UNC-GA system 2. Relates to areas identified through the strategic
planning process or, will establish novel areas of inquiry in which the campus can quickly achieve national prominence
3. Is broad, inter- or multi-disciplinary, and allows for multiple specializations to grow/die

Guiding principles to be used to inform development and prioritization
4. Leverages existing programs and/or leads to elimination of smaller, narrower degrees
5. Builds on existing capacity as evidenced by: a body of faculty active in the area of scholarship (shown by grants, publications, successful collaborations, etc.)
6. Values doctoral and masters over baccalaureate programs (doctoral>masters>baccalaureate)

7. Is economically sustainable; preference will be given for reassignment of existing resources (or long-term external funding, such as endowment) over those with short-term funding (e.g., grants of a finite duration) or those relying on enrollment increase funding. Note: Current UNC-GA guidelines require new program proposals to include a funding plan that does not rely on guaranteed enrollment increase funding for implementation.

Health Insurance • Only students who are considered full-time are eligible for the
Pearce and Pearce student plan.
– Students who are not considered full-time must purchase a different plan that meets the minimum requirements : https://www.studentinsurance.com/PearceSite/Enroll/intro.asp
• International students are eligible to apply for a waiver from
purchasing the Pearce and Pearce health insurance as long as the insurance meets the minimum requirements .
– OIS is not involved in the waiver process, students must
contact Pearce and Pearce directly: • https://www.studentinsurance.com/PearceSite/Enroll/intro.asp

Reduced Course Load (RCL) • Students who request a RCL which would make them ineligible for the Pearce
and Pearce insurance, must show proof of other credible insurance through the duration of that final semester of enrollment
• RCLs will not be approved for students who do not meet the student health
insurance requirement, without proof of other on-going and credible insurance coverage.
• RCL Reasons
– Initial Difficulty with English Language – first semester only – Initial Difficulty with Reading Requirements – first semester only – Improper Course Level Placement – Final Semester
• Must be approved by the DGP and graduate school • For thesis/dissertation students the defense must be scheduled to
occur before October 15th (the last date to drop or withdraw from a course)

What is the Final Semester for International Students?
• For the purpose of determining the program end date on the I-20 or DS-2019, final semester (completion date) is defined as the last semester of required enrollment
• For thesis/dissertation students who will defend in the intersession period the
final semester of enrollment will be the last semester of enrollment not the defense date.
• For example a student who defends on August 10th, will have the last
semester as August 3, 2012
• The final semester is also the last date of employment eligibility on campus, unless the student has been approved for OPT and has a job related to their field of study
