Change application language to eligibility for first stage of UA
When using a UA, those first common questions are really for eligibility, at least the way we are using it. So when the potential applicants get to the confirmation page, for either the failure message or to see what scholarships they are eligible for, it says your application has been submitted, but really, it hasn't. They are, at that point, ready to enter the application and its questions. Can there be some terminology changes set for the first stage? I make it clear in my instructions what's to happen, but an applicant as you define it shouldn't really be one until they are actually eligible to apply. I am deep in editing and days away from opening our UA for this year so this topic is top of mind.

This would be really helpful. I have language in the common questions section explaining the process, but I lie awake at night wondering... does anybody even read that stuff? Seeing a button at the bottom of the form that says "submit" certainly makes some applicants think they're done with the whole application.
