Workflow context
When to use this workflow
Use after admission has been formally communicated and staff can confirm the program, enrollment term, applicable checklist items, institution-set deadline, applicant portal, and orientation link for that student.
What this replaces
Replaces long admitted-student emails assembled from separate deposit, housing, orientation, financial-aid, and transcript instructions that may not all apply to the recipient.
Why teams standardize this email
A reviewed checklist makes the next steps easier to follow while keeping staff responsible for choosing only applicable items and verifying dates, links, and institutional requirements.
What Toggles adds beyond a normal Outlook template
Toggles inserts the workflow directly in Outlook, prompts for variables, prepares operational details, and keeps the draft editable before sending.
- Fills the student, program, enrollment term, and institution-set deadline
- Renders the selected enrollment next steps as a checklist in the draft
- Adds the applicant portal and orientation registration links
- Attaches the configured Accepted Student Next Steps PDF
- Applies the configured accepted-student tag when the workflow starts
FAQ
Does this workflow determine which enrollment steps apply?
No. Staff select the applicable steps and verify them against the student's record and current institutional requirements.
Does Toggles set the enrollment deadline?
No. The sender enters the institution-set date for the student and reviews it before sending.
What is attached to the Outlook draft?
The workflow attaches the configured Accepted Student Next Steps PDF. Staff should confirm that the document is current and appropriate for the program and term.
