National University Expedites Transcript Processing with Advanced Forms Processing Solution

A national university with a large student body regularly receives a high number of transfer applications from students. These applications are paper-based and contain transcripts that differ widely in layout, depending on the university. The information from the transcripts, such as grades, course descriptions, and semesters, had to be manually input into a management system. However, the sheer volume of transcripts made this a slow and difficult task. In order to reduce costs and streamline application processing, the university decided to look for document automation software that was capable of recognizing and processing the different transcripts.
