You can now open the excel sheet and go thru the list of all unmatched records (rows that do not have a student number in the last column) and check why it wasn't detected. Please note the system matches by Last Name, Address, DOB. The last Name must be similar spelled, the address must be similar and the DOB must be within 1 day of what NPSIS has. If any of these 3 things don't match the system will not detect the record and the record must be updated by NPSIS.
PLEASE NOTE: There currently is a limitation with twins not being detected correctly because the system currently doesn't match on first name.
