FIELD ATTRIBUTE: A2

NOTES:

Student Level is determined by Student_Classification for undergraduate students, and by COLLEGE and DEGREE for first professional and graduate students.

The following correlation applies to the Registration Status and the Student Level data elements:

If REGSTAT = 1, STULVL must = 01 or 02

If REGSTAT = 2, STULVL must = 07, 08, or 09

If REGSTAT = 3, STULVL must = 06

If REGSTAT = 7 or 8, STULVL must = 05 or 09

If REGSTAT = 9, STULVL must = 05


The following correlation applies to the Student Level and the Undergraduate Degree (UGDEG) data elements:

If STULVL = 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, or 06, UGDEG must = 5 or 6

If STULVL = 07, 08, or 09, UGDEG must = 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6


The following correlation applies to the Student Level and the Degree Level data elements:

If DEGLEV = 01, 02, 03, or 04, STULVL must be 01, 02, 03, or 04

If DEGLEV = 06, STULVL must be 01, 02, 03, or 04

If DEGLEV = 07, STULVL must be 07

If DEGLEV = 08, STULVL must be 06

If DEGLEV = 09, STULVL must be 07

If DEGLEV = 10, STULVL must be 07

If DEGLEV = 11, STULVL must be 07

If DEGLEV = 12, STULVL must be 08

If DEGLEV = 14, STULVL must be 05 or 09
