Ò»±¾µÀÎÞÂë

A comprehensive approval notification process initiated by the University Registrar’s Office will ensure that all Ò»±¾µÀÎÞÂë offices are notified in a timely and thorough manner in order to provide support to faculty, staff, and students related to compliance, accreditation, finances and financial aid (if any), S3 Student Services Suite data entry and management, student service delivery (including non-immigrant visa documents), etc.

Standard information included in notification: Scanned copy of the completed NAPP Step 2: Administrative Implementation Phase form with signed approvals.

In some cases, other administrative processes will naturally follow as a result of the NAPP 3: Notification Phase. Examples include Middle States accreditation, assignment of the commodity code by Student Accounts, the Office of International Education's preparedness to issue the I-20 document for new incoming international students, etc; some processes take only days, and some will take weeks or more. Please refer to the Other Factors to Consider.
