[Unistats] Commencement date for RTS students who have upgraded or downgraded

[Andrea Matulick]

Hi all,

We are curious what commencement date other institutions have reported
for RTS students who have upgraded or downgraded their enrolment
(Masters to PhD or vice versa). DEST's documentation on commencing
students (and commencing RTS students) has been re-written. It is not
specific, but seems to suggest the date of the transfer should be
reported as the commencement date. Our student records system is
currently set to give us the original commencement date for these
students.

Does anyone else see this as a problem?
