SIS Project Update Summer 2012

Summer 2012

The Role of Admissions

In the new integrated SIS (iSIS) almost all student data will originate from admissions.
For many Tufts schools today, this delivery happens electronically and is practically
invisible. Moving to PeopleSoft opens up possibilities for schools that aren’t currently
taking advan

tage of electronic delivery.

The Critical Step of Conversion

For the new integrated SIS (iSIS) to functional properly, a significant amount of student-related data that
exists in the old SIS will need to live in iSIS. This data will be converted to iSIS over a year long period,
beginning in August 2012 and ending in August 2013.
