The Address Info tab lists information about the selected address. The address provides a location for the household, and ties the students to the address. Addresses are listed on several reports, reviewed as part of the Enrollment processes and several other areas of Infinite Campus.
Districts can choose to work with their city's planning committee or utility company to import all district addresses.
Address Information
The Address Information tool is displayed when searching for Households and selecting the Address item from the Household Search Results or by searching for Addresses and selecting a search result.
Addresses can be added to Campus from the Address Info tab, but it is recommended that the Add Address wizard is used to add multiple addresses to Campus.

Impact Aid Address Fields
As stated above, each county determines what the legal description is for a housing unit when a physical address of that unit is not available or does not exist. An example of a legal description would be the following:
- Lot 1, Block 2, Tract A
- NE 1/4, Section 12, T1N, T2W
It is assumed that a housing unit that uses the legal description does not necessarily have a P.O. Box as a mailing address.
An address can be added using the Add Address tool that does not contain standard address fields (number, street, tab, etc.). When an address is saved without this information, it cannot be searched in Campus. When a legal description is used in place of an address (when a household does not have an address), the legal description is searchable, and returns in the search results in the following areas:
The Legal Description is also included in the Person Summary Report.
