Academic records for past students who are reapplying

When a past student reapplies, the past student role is removed and the candidate role is added. However, changing the role makes it impossible to pull up the student's past academic record, because the People Finder in Academics only looks for users who have the Student or Past Student roles. We need a way to be able to pull past academic records for candidates who had previously attended, as this is a significant component of evaluating the candidate's application.

    Definitely needed. We have learned how to "trick" the system, if you look up the candidate in Core and copy their User id number, then go to Academics, look up a current student, and paste the former student-candidate's id number into the webpage address, you can access the former student's academic records. You cannot search via their id number, but you can replace with their id in the address. Very convoluted, but it works.

    This would be so helpful. We run into this multiple times each year!
