System and method for multi-institutional optimization for a candidate application system

A computer implemented method of optimizing data sharing in a candidate application process, using a multi-institutional application system of an educational institution, the method comprising the steps of:

• receiving a student admission application using the multi-institutional application system;
• storing information in memory pertaining to at least one student characteristic metric;
• receiving and storing a success metric;
• correlating a student success metric;
• taking an action relating to the result of the correlation;
• sending results of the correlation to at least one institution;
• and
• displaying results on a user interface;

A system for optimizing data sharing in a candidate application process, using a multi-institutional application system of an educational institution, the system comprising:

• an application management system further comprising a processor operable via a set of instructions storable in relation to a non-transient memory device, the application management system in communication with two or more educational institutions;
• a user interface for receiving at least one admission application;
• a throttling engine service the throttling engine service in communication with the processor to two or more educational institutions configuring the processor to:
• receive a student admission application using the multi-institutional application system;
• store information in memory pertaining to at least one student characteristic metric;
• receive and store a success metric;
• correlate a student success metric;
• take an action relating to the result of the correlation;
• send results of the correlation to at least one institution;
• and
• display results on a user interface.
