The communication module uses the email address provided within the Semester / Term / Current contact record. The student portal may be configured such that students must validate the contents of their residential (Current), billing (Billing), and emergency contact details fields on a recurring schedule. Potential students applying via the Applicant Portal are required to provide details for both residential (Current) and billing (Billing) addresses, as a minimum.
