[Sits-regional-group-mw] GTTR files...

[EVANS, Pete]

Here, at the University of Gloucestershire (formerly Cheltenham & Gloucester
College), we recruit for GTTR courses via 2 institution codes: the normal
C50 and also G48 (for specialist GITEP PGCE Secondary courses which are run
elsewhere).  In the past, we have had C50 data on-line and G48 applications
we have had to treat as direct and put directly on to MAS (as SITS can't
take 2 different institution codes).

When this was brought up at the GTTR Review Meeting, Dave Delaney from UCAS
reported that they had developed a parent and child file.

Basically, what is intended to happen, is that our system picks up a file
called afout50 from the UCAS firewall and processes it 6.30am.  What UCAS
have done, it to create an additional file called afout48, to be picked up
at say 7.30am.

SITS maintain that the system cannot take 2 institution codes.

I was wondering if anyone else has this problem and if so, did you get round
it?

Regards

Pete
