Knowledge and data management are an important part of successfully growing your university advising program year after year. Keep your records updated in one place by importing your school's application and matriculation data into BridgeU retrospectively.
You can use the data import template below to:
- Maintain historical records for students who never had a BridgeU account but have application outcomes.
- Bulk update application and matriculation records for students with a BridgeU account and already have application outcomes.
Please note: for students with BridgeU accounts, you may find it easier and faster to update records directly within BridgeU. Learn how students can update their applications, or how advisors can edit application outcomes for students.
Step 1: Click this link: Historical Data template to create your own copy in Google Spreadsheet format or open the file with Excel. Instructions on how to fill it out are available in the first tab of the spreadsheet.
Step 2: Navigate to the Students and Applications tab within the spreadsheet and include any relevant data you have in the displayed columns only.
Step 3: Once complete, please email the document to hi@bridge-u.com
Note: Please be aware that the import does take some time to process and is only suitable for students who already have application outcomes. Once imported, your data will be visible within Analytics.
