The SAAADMS screens allows you to maintain all checklist items but none of the detail prerequisite items. The WADM020 screen allows you to maintain SOME of the checklist items and ALL of the detail prerequisite items. What checklist items can be maintained via the WADM020 screen is defined on the “Codes to be used in Prerequisite Mgt. “(WADM021) screen. See Codes to be used in Prerequisite Mgt Maintenance below for details on managing that information.

As students go through the admission process, the checklist items are added based on admission criteria defined in Slate. However, it may be necessary to add some checklist items manually. . For example, if the student has a concentration in Biology, you will need to add the ZBIO checklist item to the student’s record. To do this, place your cursor on a field in the Prerequisites portion of the screen. You will see that the insert option becomes available. Click the insert button.
A blank line appears. Place your cursor in the Admr Code field. As soon as you navigate to that field, the {…} ellipses button appears. Click on that ellipses to get a list of

When the regr509 job runs nightly it checks to see if there holds that have been satisfied. If any are found, the system date is entered in the hold_to_date field. (This might happen if a tape load is received with scores or if someone manually satisfies the hold using SAAADMS instead of WADM020.)
Note: The student side of Banner doesn't match up with appl no to the admissions data. We can only link back to admissions data based on school/major/program for a student. So if there are two separate appl nos in admissions with the same school/major/program for a student, if one of those appl nos has unsatisfied pre-reqs, a hold will still be generated.
On September 24th, February 3rd and the Monday after 6/28 this job will send an email reminder to Deborah Prohn Lisa Seely and Kevin Smith reminding them that the hold process will take place in one week. It reminds them to check Business Objects report REGR539 for a list of students who will be affected. This report is available in the Students, Admissions and in the Deans Assoc folders. This report lists students who have unsatisified pre-reqs based on the criteria in the table below. It also sends out portal message 68. The message is sent to students who are going to get a hold on their account in one week due to missing admission prerequisites. The text of that message is:

9/4/18 – Eliminated wreg521.view
11/6/23 - We are no longer putting GRAT on student records so they should never get a hold based on that in School of Education.
Below is the link to the list of pre-requisites required upon admission per major. (Please note that the spreadsheet is very wide so downloading it would be your best option to view every pre-requisite for each major.)
