How to Process a Continuing EOPS Student

Summary

This job aid will walk you through the process of processing a continuing EOPS student.

Introduction Info

Students will be invited to apply to EOPS through the system once they submit a financial aid application and have an active college application on file.  Please see X06 - EOPS Invite to Apply email.

StepInstructions
1

Upon receipt of an EOPS application (online or in-person).

Navigate to: MIS/320 Reporting → MIS Data Collection → Student EOPS Data

You will be prompted to search for a person.  To ensure that the student is a continuing student, please type in their student ID in the EMPLID field, the campus you are at in the campus field, and then click on "Search"

You should see a list of values.  Values were converted from 2015 - 2018 academic years. Look for the Reporting Term from the previous primary semester

Click on the row to bring up that semester's EOPS entry

In the previous semester's entry, make note of the Term of Acceptance and Eligibility Factor.  You will need to re-enter this in the new semester row.

Towards the bottom of the page, click on "Add"

Type in the CSID (EMPLID).  The system will default the appropriate campus based on their financial aid application and their student education plan.  Then enter in the reporting term you will be processing the student in.

You should see the EOPS page for the semester you just created as shown below.

Enter in the original Term of Acceptance and the Eligibility Factor from the previous semester.  Then click on Save to create your entry.  

(warning) You may see a warning message if the student is not enrolled in any units.  This message is just to notify you that the student is not enrolled in the reporting term.

There will be two things you need to do here:

  1. Check to see if the student was invited to apply to EOPS.  If so you will need to complete the checklist item.
  2. Add the XECONT checklist to invite them to attend orientation for continuing students.

To process the student, click on the 3C Status tab and look for the XAPPN checklist item.  The status should be "initiated" which indicates the application has not yet been received.

If you do not see the checklist item, the student was not yet invited to EOPS.   This might indicate that they did not submit a FAFSA application, or at the time was not pre-screened to be eligible for EOPS (e.g. not a California Resident).

Click on the XAPPN checklist item code.

(warning) Be sure you enabled pop-ups in your browser for the next step to work.

You will be brought to the checklist item in Campus Solutions.  In the Status box, change the status to "Completed" for processing to occur if they still qualify.
