The new Admission System (AAP) contains applications to all UBC & UBCO programs submitted by UBC & UBCO applicants. After applications are submitted, they are placed in admission “processing areas” within the AAP system. These areas serve to store specific program applications in the system together. For example, the “ADMS” processing area contains all applications submitted for most undergraduate level bachelor programs on both campuses.
When requesting processing areas on the Workday Student Access Form, you will be prompted on the form to select the processing areas you require access to. Review the processing area below and the associated UBC or UBCO programs associated with that processing area & select the processing area on the form for the program applications you will be required to view or update in the AAP.
Please note that as some areas may contain applications from multiple faculties or departments, all access requests will be subject to review for approval. If you are unsure which processing area contains the program(s) you require access to administer, please contact the ISC – Student Access team using the ISC Self-Service Portal.
