Migration of Customised Course Groups
If you’re using the Faculty Groups functionality in Application and Decision Tracker, your groups have now been migrated into UCAS Tracker.
- Your Faculty Groups (now known as Customised Course Groups in Tracker) have now been migrated to Tracker from Application and Decision Tracker. This integration introduces an enhancement to the Course Deep Dive page, allowing you to leverage all the available features for your unique course groupings, to track your performance and profile.
- If you don't have existing faculties in Application and Decision Tracker, all of your course codes will appear in a group named 'Unassigned'.
- There is no benchmarking data shared for your customised course groups – just the numbers for your own courses.
Although optional, if you would like to use this feature in UCAS Tracker, make sure to map your course codes to your chosen groups in Application and Decision Tracker before July 2024.
