One Term Automated Packaging (OTAP)
This semester, UMN rolled out the functionality created as the result of the One Term Automated Packaging CS PS 9.2 Upgrade project. For the first time, fall undergraduate student awarding was done in an automated batch packaging process. This automation allows students graduating fall term to receive their financial aid package at the same time as students attending fall and spring. In addition it saves staff time, reduces manual errors, and allows better funds management.
Constitution Day 2018
Constitution Day 2018 has come and gone but all campuses met the requirement. The campuses coordinated efforts to ensure that all met the Constitution Day requirement to commemorate the September 17 signing of the Constitution. This is required in order to meet Federal Student Aid Consumer Information disclosure requirements.
