Advanced Search Filters
This article explains some commonly used search filters in the TitanNet Advanced Search page.
View the Advanced Search Overview article for information on accessing and using Advanced Search, including guidelines on using the different search filters and instructions about saving searches.
You can use each advanced search bucket on its own or combine filters across buckets to refine search results to fit your needs.
Student Information Bucket
The Student Information filters allow advisors to search for students by personal identifying information such as name, CWID, category, gender, race/ethnicity, and student categories.
Getting Started
Across different sections, filters act as "AND" conditions. For example, selecting "Female" from the Gender drop-down, "Yes" from the Transfer Student drop-down, and "STEM" from the Category (In Any of these) menu will generate a list of female transfer students enrolled in STEM programs.
- Click on the caret to expand the Student Information section and view the filters.
- You can search for students by First Name and Last Name.
- You can search for a range students using From Last Name as a lower limit and To Last Name as an upper limit.
- You can search for students by Student ID (CWID). You can search up to 300 CWIDs at a time.
- You can select a Gender from the drop-down menu to filter results by self-identified gender (i.e. male, female, other).
- You can select a Race or Ethnicity to filter results by self-reported race or ethnicity.
- You can filter results by students that are on a Student List that you've created. You may select multiple lists at a time.
- You can filter results by student transfer status in the Transfer Student menu.

You can also type within the field to narrow down the available options within the drop-down. Examples of categories include cohort, student groups (e.g. honors, athletes, student government, etc.), program type (undergraduate, graduate, certificate, etc.), account holds, academic standing, graduation candidacy, and the like. The main Category field is set to retrieve results "in any of these" categories that you select. View more information about the In Any of these filter.
- Click on the plus sign button to open the additional "in all of these" and "in none of these" category filters. View more information about the In All of these filter or view more information about the In None of these filter.
Additional Category Filters ("in --- of these" filters)
If you click the plus sign button next to the Category menu, more fields that provide additional Boolean logic for searches will be revealed: "In All of these" and "In None of these".
Search results will contain students that meet any one or more condition–combines selections with “OR”.
In this example, the search results will include students that are Abrego Future Scholars, Guardian Scholars, and/or President's Scholars.
Search results will include students that meet all conditions–combines selections with “AND”.
In this example, the search results will include first-generation students that are also in the University Honors program and have been approved for graduation.
If you use multiple Category fields, "AND" conditions will be applied between the fields. The logic within each individual field remains the same.
In this example, the search results will include students that:
- are on Academic Notice OR Disqualification (In Any of these field)
AND - have applied for graduation AND are part of the Spring 2024 cohort (In All of these field)
AND - do not have Disqualification Advising OR Probation Advising holds. (In None of these field)
