This article explains the filters and statuses participating schools may see in the Odyssey School Portal when managing student enrollment, tuition and fees, and payments.
Important: Payment schedules vary by program. Some programs issue tuition payments quarterly, while others issue payments by semester. The payment filters and statuses in your School Portal will reflect your program’s payment schedule.
Student Filters
Student filters help you find students based on where they are in the enrollment, tuition and fees, and payment process.
Your payment filters may look different from the example above. This screenshot shows a program with quarterly payments, so the filters are labeled Q1 Paid, Q2 Paid, Q3 Paid, and Q4 Paid. If your program uses semesters, your payment filters will reflect your program’s semester payment schedule.
| Filter | What It Means |
|---|---|
| All Active Students | Shows all active students who have selected your school. Students under Inactive Enrollments are not included. |
| Enrollment Verification Pending | The student is waiting for your school to review their enrollment request. Select Verify Enrollment or Deny Enrollment based on whether the student is enrolling at your school. |
| Tuition/Fees Needed | Your school verified the student’s enrollment and must enter the student’s tuition and fees. A student may also return to this status if the parent/guardian does not confirm the submitted amount. |
| Tuition/Fees Awaiting Confirmation | Your school submitted the tuition and fees and is waiting for the parent/guardian to confirm the amount. Confirming tuition and fees does not initiate payment. Payment is handled separately for students who are approved and funded through the program. |
| Tuition/Fees Confirmed | The parent/guardian confirmed the tuition and fees submitted by your school. No further action is needed from your school at this time. |
| Payment Statuses | Shows which scheduled tuition payments have been submitted. Quarterly programs may show Q1 Paid, Q2 Paid, Q3 Paid, and Q4 Paid. Semester-based programs may show semester payment statuses instead. |
| Inactive Enrollments | Shows students whose enrollment request your school denied and students who selected your school but later chose a different educational setting. |
Important: Selecting a school in the Odyssey platform does not officially enroll a student at that school. Families must contact the school directly and complete the school’s required admissions process.
Understanding Payment Statuses
Payment statuses show which tuition payments have been submitted for a student.
The labels you see depend on your program’s payment schedule:
- Quarterly programs: You may see Q1 Paid, Q2 Paid, Q3 Paid, and Q4 Paid.
- Semester-based programs: You may see payment statuses based on the applicable semester.
A payment-period status may not always show the full picture of how much tuition has been paid. Depending on the program and when payments are submitted, payments may be applied during a different payment period than expected.
When reviewing a student’s payments, use the Payment Summary and Total Paid to Date in the student’s Payment Details to confirm the total amount paid.
Log Statuses
Log statuses show updates and actions related to a student’s enrollment, tuition and fees, and payments.
Your payment statuses may look different from the example above. Quarterly programs may display statuses such as Q1 Paid or Q2 Paid, while semester-based programs will use statuses that reflect their payment schedule.
| Status | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Verified | Your school verified the student’s enrollment request and must now enter the student’s tuition and fees. |
| Denied | Your school denied the student’s enrollment request. The student moves to Inactive Enrollments. |
| Closed | The student selected a different educational setting. The student moves to Inactive Enrollments. |
| Pending Tuition Confirmation | Your school submitted the tuition and fees and is waiting for the parent/guardian to confirm the amount. Confirming tuition and fees does not initiate payment. |
| Tuition Confirmed | The parent/guardian confirmed the tuition and fees submitted by your school. No further action is needed from your school at this time. |
| Tuition Not Confirmed | The parent/guardian did not confirm the tuition and fees submitted by your school. Your school can edit and resubmit the amount. |
| Payment Statuses | Shows that a tuition payment was submitted for a payment period. The exact status shown depends on your program’s payment schedule. |
Remember
Your School Portal may not show every payment filter or status pictured in this article. Payment filters and statuses are based on your program’s payment schedule.
Use the student’s Payment Summary and Total Paid to Date to confirm the student’s overall tuition payment history rather than relying only on an individual payment-period status.
