PART 2: REENROLLMENT
What we did well that we should do again:1. Group project with defined members and regularly scheduled meetings2. Tested the usability by “relating” each team member to a student3. Tested the usability of the process by asking three colleagues outside of the
team to test the form with a team member watching and documenting questions.
4. Completing the contract flow chart5. Very complete FAQs6. Optional survey7. Log call/emails
a. Track trends, expand FAQs8. Send emails through BBNC to take advantage of tracking and reporting9. Set-up and followed a P&P for adding and removing holds10. Documentation to prevent “I thought we were going to ….”
PART 2: REENROLLMENT
Unintended consequences (good or bad)1. Parents updated profiles while logged into the site2. Even though there were certain elements of the reenrollment process that did not
change, going to an online system make parents review all materials with a critical eye, i.e. financial aid awards after contract is signed.
3. Parents paying tuition bills earlier4. Parents paying deposit from email link without completing enrollment form.5. Parents completing online application instead of online enrollment
If we had only known ...1. In BBNC 6.41 rules can only apply to check boxes and cannot be conditional2. Hold codes can’t be queried on from a parent record so they must be attributes3. In BBNC 6.41 changing the setting of the user can/can’t delete a form in progress
resets who the system to think that no parent/guardian has completed the form4. The ReEnrollment form allows access to very little record data - get ready for attributes
PART 2: REENROLLMENT
Challenges with no solution1. BBNC is only a ReEnrollment form, not an Enrollment form for new families
a. told families they will get a contract from Admissions2. Only one parent should complete the form
a. told families to decide who will complete process
Challenges solved with a workaround:1. By not sending paper that had to be returned it meant that getting payment from those
paying via check would be that much more challenging. We therefore decided to bill everyone.
2. Instead of check boxes with rules merged payment plan and method into one attribute drop-down
a. **BBNC 6.45 updated rule functionality3. ReEnrollment form can’t draw and AO or RO data. Added RO attributes to pre-populate
the following on the contact:a. Grade for next yearb. Tuition for next yearc. Deposit amount due
PART 2: REENROLLMENT
What we should have done differently:1. Separated content creation from content proofing/review2. Started the project in July :)
Planning for 2013-20141. Determine language of contract in December2. Team review of process in Mid-February
