Apply Students for Program Completion

Configure the Apply for Program Completion Event
business process and security policy.

If the business process requires a questionnaire, consider informing students that they must complete the questionnaire before the application is considered complete. To include an optional questionnaire, configure the initiation step as the completion step.

Set up a program completion application policy. See Set Up Program Completion Application Policies.

You can submit program completion applications on behalf of students. You can apply on behalf of students even when they can't apply, such as after the program completion application deadline. Students can use the

Apply for Program Completion

task to create their own applications.

Access the

Apply Student for Program Completion

task.

As you complete the task, consider:

Option	Description
Name	When the student has multiple name types, select a name type to display on the diploma. You can select from name types configured on the program completion application policy that applies to the student.
RSVP for Commencement	Select to indicate the student’s attendance at Commencement. This data is for reporting purposes only.
Apply	Select the programs of study to which to apply for completion.
Anticipated Academic Period for Completion	Select the standard academic period in which the student anticipates completing their program. This field is required. Workday displays standard academic periods based on your program completion application policy configuration. See Steps: Set Up Program Completion.
Expected Completion Date	(Optional) If necessary, update the expected completion date. Displays the expected completion date for the student's program of study record. When you select an Anticipated Academic Period for Completion , Workday automatically updates this field based on the selected period. You can't edit this field while it's driven by the anticipated academic period. Workday uses the same date as the Conferral Date date control override for the selected academic period, if one exists, or the standard end date of the selected academic period. If you change the Anticipated Academic Period for Completion , Workday updates the Expected Completion Date .

Select the

Confirm

check box.

Grant reporting users access to the Manage: Program Completion Progress
domain so they can use these fields in custom reports. See Steps: Set Up Program Completion.

The application is available for review on the

Manage Program Completion

report.

Administrators can use the

Edit Program Completion Application for Student

task to update or inactivate administrator-created or self-service program completion applications. When you edit an application, you can update Anticipated Academic Period for Completion
. Workday recalculates the Expected Completion Date
using the same logic as the apply task.

Students can use the

Edit My Program Completion Application

task to edit applications that they create.

Workday changes the program of study status to Pending Completion
. Students can no longer register for courses where the academic period start date or course section start date is after the expected completion date.

For reporting, Workday stores Anticipated Academic Period for Completion
on the Program Completion Application business object. You can include these fields in custom student graduation reports.

Field	Description
Anticipated Academic Period for Completion	The student's anticipated completion academic period on the program completion application.

Review the application to approve it and progress toward completion.
