Overview

Admission Review function fields show aggregate information about application reviews. There are six different ones:

Adm Reviewer
Adm Recommendation Count
Adm Review Notes
Adm Review Criteria Score
Adm Review Criteria Score List
Add Review Total Score

Adm Reviewer

This function field displays the reviewer for a given reviewer type, and so is helpful to display the reviewer name for a given review. If more than one reviewer is assigned to a review in a given type, the system arbitrarily picks one to display.

Parameters

Year Applying For (required)	Select the desired year (defaults to active admissions year).
Reviewer Type (required)	Select the desired reviewer type. Reviewer types can be configured and added from the Application Review homepage.

Adm Recommendation Count

This function field displays the number of recommendations for a given recommendation type (not recommendation category).

Tip:To show all “Accept” recommendations, for example, select both “Strong Accept” and “Accept” recommendations. This strategy can be especially helpful if you have multiple custom recommendations within a given recommendation category.

Parameters

Year Applying For (required)	Select the desired year (defaults to active admissions year).
Recommendation	Select the desired recommendation(s). Recommendations can be configured and added from the Application Review homepage.
Reviewer Type	Select the desired reviewer type. Reviewer types can be configured and added from the Application Review homepage.

Reviewer Type	Select the desired reviewer type. Reviewer types can be configured and added from the Application Review homepage.
