Applications in Slate are organized into populations around units that read and work on applications similarly:

By School/Unit– Example: the School of Mechanical Engineering, which would be all applications that are associated with that department code in Banner.
By Interdisciplinary programs - Example: the Master’s in Human-Computer Interaction, which crosses 4 schools / units – which would be all HCI applications no matter what department code
There are a small number of populations outside these combinations:
- The MSCS program is split into two populations: one for online, one for on-campus.
- The GTPE supported programs, which cross multiple departments and campuses but are supported by one department.
There are also Inquiry populations for each (any record that is not a submitted application).

Details on what is considered student information can be found at Registrar’s FERPA page.
Educational records may be accessed and used by system users in the performance of their job responsibilities; however, there is to be no unnecessary access and if any of the information is anticipated to be released outside of the academic unit or the Institute, such requests must be referred to the Office of Graduate Education for permission prior to any access or release.
