What's New!

October Go-Live!!
We are officially live on PeopleSoft Student Administration!! Thanks to all the heroes from both the project, Enrollment Services and the entire campus community that have made this exciting day possible.

Today we went live on Recruiting, Admissions and Campus Community.

In addition we rolled out the first phase of My CSUEB which will be the replacement for MyINFO when we fully go live with PeopleSoft. As of today, applicants will check their admissions status for Summer/Fall 2007 in My CSUEB and all students will make changes to address, emergency contact, phone and non-Horizon email information in My CSUEB. My CSUEB will continue to evolve for students throughout the upcoming PeopleSoft go-lives.

Some of the big wins ..

1) We can load Mentor applications today!! This is a major win! In the past we had to wait for Hershey updates to be in place which often took 30 days or more!

2) We have one database to capture student data from the time we first see a student as a prospect to the time they graduate and beyond into alumni relations. Over time, this will give us a full picture of the student during his/her entire experience at CSU East Bay.

3) A major overhaul of student communications occurred and is now in place. The Enrollment Services communications team has rewritten and re-timed most of the student communications to put a much more positive face on the University to our prospects, applicants and students.

4) We can add prospects from Mentor and from test scores. CSU Mentor has the capability to collect student interest in CSU campuses so we can now follow up with those prospects. In addition, as people take their SAT and ACT tests, if they list CSU East Bay as a recipient of those scores, we can add them as a prospect as well.

There will be some glitches as we start up. This is a huge application. Please be patient, work with your Local Support Representatives and use pssahelp@csueastbay if you have issues. Please read your massmail emails as that will be our primary listserv for communication. In addition, please visit the student administration support pages at http://utp.csueastbay.edu.

Thanks again to all of you that worked to make this day a day of celebration!!
