35 CAS Report More and more, a good performance in CAS is becoming a vital part of university admissions… In the US and UK, it can actually enhance or damage the students chances because it makes the difference between merely an excellent student & an excellent student with evidence of a well-rounded personality, international-mindedness and concern for others…

36 CAS Report Many schools ask coordinators to provide a full CAS report for each student at the time of predicted grades submission or university (UCAS in particular!) All or some of it then becomes part of the application process…
