FAQs
Please note that FAQs in this section pertain to the School Enrollment Template in the Enrollment Domain.
1. Must enrollment information be submitted for all students?
• Yes, enrollment records must be submitted for all students enrolled at any time during a school year. Refer to the “Who Reports Whom”
document in the Document Repository on the PIMS website
(http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/directory/pims_how_to_guides___training_docs/71510 ) for a detailed description of which
LEA is responsible for submitting data on each type of student. Also see Volume 2 of the PIMS User Manual for a complete list of
Enrollment Codes, which includes codes for both entry and withdrawal transactions.
2. Do I have to submit all enrollment records for a student?
• Yes. If, for example, a student enrolls and withdraws from a particular school twice during a school year, PIMS must receive four
enrollment records for that student – two entry transactions and two withdrawal transactions.
• It is not sufficient to send only the most recent transaction.
