DARS/Faculty&Staff - A New DARS Request App - Save & Retrieve DORs

Staff can save a Document of Record (DOR) for an individual student or DORs for multiple students through the batch process.

Overview

A "Document of Record" is created to establish an "official" version of a Degree Audit Report (DARS Report). Some schools and colleges use DORs as a part of the degree clearance process.
