• Run the Status Compare report before 10/1 to ensure that the status of each student matches the application status. This report lists students who have a discrepancy between the student maintenance status to the student application status. Any discrepancies listed on the report should be resolved before proceeding with verification. If all students match the report will be blank. Check this report occasionally for any discrepancies throughout the year.
