Tips for Teachers Trying to Submit Applications Using the AET Degree App.
Manager:
1. Be sure the student has “0” NOT MET PDF, or it cannot be submitted
2. Students MUST save a new version to get a MET PDF version (0 Not Met Value)
3. If a student had a 2024-ending application, it must now be a 2025 application
4. If updating the year to 2025, new signatures will be required
5. If an application gets removed, a new version will need to be saved and added
6. See AET’s Submission List (in the same location where it was submitted) for notes and the
ability to update and resubmit.
