Submission.
Submission is the system’s final operational phase. It delivers the completed materials to the appropriate institutions, ensuring that each artifact is received in its intended form. Submission does not advocate, interpret, or negotiate. It transmits the record exactly as constructed.
1. Purpose
The purpose of Submission is to ensure that the student’s institutional materials are delivered cleanly, accurately, and without distortion. It finalizes the engagement by transferring the completed record to the institutions that will evaluate it.
2. What Submission Includes
- Transmission. Delivery of all finalized materials to the designated institutions.
- Verification. Confirmation that each institution has received the correct artifacts.
- Record integrity. Ensuring that no component is altered, reformatted, or reinterpreted.
- Completion. Formal closure of the operational phase of the engagement.
3. How It Works
Submission is executed internally. The system transmits the materials directly to the institutions, verifies receipt, and confirms that the record remains intact. Families do not contact institutions, provide narrative context, or supplement the materials.
Once Submission is complete, the system transitions to Decision.
4. Outcome
If the materials are successfully delivered and verified, the family proceeds to Decision. If any institution requires resubmission due to technical issues, the system resolves it internally.
