You can track outcomes for your students in College Kickstart through the Outcomes panel in the Counselor Dashboard through the suitcase icon. The suitcase icon under the ACTIONS column is only enabled for Senior students that have finished their application process of the previous year or students that have graduated.

Updating The School List

You can add, remove, or change order of schools in the student's list. By default, if you have not saved outcomes yet, the list should match the last plan that was run for the student. 

To add a school, click on the dropdown labeled "Select institution". You can type the name of the school you are looking for, select the school, and click "Add To List" to add a school to the list. The school will be added initially at the bottom of the list.

To remove a school, click the 'X' icon next to the school:

To reorder schools, hover your mouse over the Rank column, and click and drag schools up or down the list. 

Note that there are many more school in this dropdown than the school dropdown for running plans. Unfortunately not all schools publish the Common Data Set, which is why we are not able to support all colleges/universities for running plans. However, this will allow you to at least record outcomes for schools you were not able to add when running plans. 

Recording Outcomes

If you have not saved outcomes for the student yet, by default, the Application Type in the Type column will be pre-populated with what the application recommended during the student's last run for their plan. You can update the application type if the student decided to apply differently.

By default, Status dropdown will be set to "Unknown" for all schools. 

To update the status, click the dropdown and select the option that best fits the result of the student's outcome. Note that only one outcome can be set to "Enrolled" at any time. If you update a second outcome the "Enrolled", the first outcome that was set to "Enrolled" will be switched to "Accepted".

By default, the Deferred, Waitlisted, Need Aid and Merit Aid columns are all blank and unchecked. 

Click on the checkboxes to indicate if the student was deferred or waitlisted for the school. For the Need Aid and Merit Aid columns, click on the field and type in aid amount.

Flags are also unselected by default. To add flags to an outcome, click the dropdown in the Flags column and select flags or hooks that may have applied to the student. You can select more than one flag or hook if needed.

Once you are finished making changes, make sure to save your work by clicking on the blue button labeled SAVE CHANGES on the top right of the panel.
