Where to Find New Applicants

The Daily Digest is an email that any admin user can receive on a daily basis. It includes information on the Inquiries, Applicants, and Admitted Students from the previous 24 hours, as well as on other activities in the system such as submitted forms and documents, interviews scheduled, etc.

Navigate to Settings > School Settings > Academic Information to choose what time of day the Daily Digest is sent. Click Save Changes.

Each admin user can subscribe to the Daily Digest, or it can be enabled for them, via Settings > Staff Directory and click on the name of that user.

Scroll down to the Notifications section and check the box for Send Daily Digest Email & Scheduled Export. Click Save Changes.
