"you will be matched..." text on bottom of public opps. causes confusion

Currently, at the bottom of opportunities pages for applicants, it reads "you will be matched based on your General Application." this is causing confusion for CUUI clients who do not require their applicants to fill out an application.

Removing this text or changing it to "you will be matched based on the available student data" would lessen this confusion,

    This is an issue for us as well. The current text is very misleading. It always says that the student must complete their General Application to apply, when in reality the issue for us is almost always that the student must complete a Conditional Application before they can apply for that award.


    It also doesn't make sense that it says "none." We have to rely on the student hovering over the info bubble for them to even realize something else needs to be done and then it's not even accurate in most cases regarding what they need to complete.


    Could "none" be changed to "Further Action Needed" or could that be another field that sites can customize under Label Text? Could the info bubble merge in the "source" application? That way, the student would know which specific application needs to be completed.

    Calvin University requires students to complete the general application and one (possibly two) conditional applications. This text has been problematic for us as well as students think they are done after they complete the general app - not realizing they still need to complete the conditional applications to be considered. Having the ability to edit this text to make it work for each institution would be helpful.

    Jennifer McBratney from Portland Community College would also like to have access to this text to edit as they want.
