- SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
-
- Starting the summer of 2007, the race/ethnic categories changed in addition to an applicant’s ability to select multiple categories. Some categories that existed prior to summer of 2007 (Cambodian/Laotian/Vietnamese, aka ACAMLAOV in SIS) are no longer a choice for students. Users should keep this in mind when doing any historical analysis.
- The primary designation is a required field in SIS that no longer has relevance for reporting purposes. Users should not use this field for anything. The field will be removed on 4/30/2020.
