How to Review Student Applications
A student will appear in your portal after:
- The parent selects your school
- The student receives a FES award notification
- The parent ‘Opts In’ to the FES program
Once these steps are complete, the student will move to an ‘Approved’ status and appear in your dashboard.
How to Confirm Student Enrollments
To confirm enrollment:
- Log in to your Odyssey school portal
- Go to the Student Enrollment and Fees tab
- Filter by Enrollment Verification Pending
- Select the student
- Click Verify Enrollment
- Select Confirm
If a parent selected your school by mistake, you may choose Deny so the parent can select a different school.
Why can’t I see a student in my portal?
If you cannot see a student in your dashboard, the parent may not have completed all required steps yet.
Parents must:
- Select your school
- Opt in through their parent portal. Only awarded parents may Opt In.
Schools cannot confirm enrollment until the student is visible in the school portal.
Understanding Filters & Statuses
What Happens After Parent Selection?
After enrollment is verified, schools must enter:
- Annual tuition and fees
Only enter known annual fees at this time in addition to annual tuition. If you require the parent to pay ad-hoc fees during the school year, they will have the ability to do so once the school year begins.
Once submitted, the student status changes to Pending Tuition Confirmation.
The parent must then review and confirm the tuition and fees in their parent portal before a payment can be sent once the program year begins.
What happens if a parent disagrees with the tuition amount?
Parents can confirm or deny the tuition and fees.
If the parent denies the amount, the school may update and resubmit the tuition and fee information.
Can schools upload enrollments and tuition in bulk?
Yes. Schools with large numbers of students may upload enrollment and tuition information using CSV files.
In the top right corner of the school portal, Schools can:
- Download the enrollment CSV template
- Download the tuition CSV template
- Review the CSV upload guide
- Upload completed CSV files through the Odyssey portal. This action will verify enrollments or set tuition in bulk.
Waitlists & Seat Capacity
Schools may manage their own admissions process, including waitlists and seat availability.
If no seats are available, schools may choose to deny enrollment requests or place families on a waitlist according to their school policies.
