titleWho this guide is for

This user guide is for academic and support staff who are involved in making decisions about a department’s direction and therefore have access to the application dashboard.

The Applications Dashboard replaces the weekly UG and PG application statistics snapshot. The information displayed by the application dashboard is updated nightly.

Assumed knowledge
Please note that within the reports, a ‘blank’ signifies zero, rather than an absence of information.
