Enrolment Workflow
Go to Settings > School Details and click on the Enrolment Application Workflow box
- Untick 'Enrolment Requires Invitation' so that the form will be accessible by the public. If that box is ticked, then only families who are Invited to Enrol will be able to fill out the online form.
- Enter your Enrolment Application Form Fee (e.g 220) and tick the 'Need Payment' box so that the online credit card form will appear at the end of the enrolment form
Go to Settings > School Details > Enrolment Offer Workflow box
- Enrolment Offer Email Delivery Delay - change this to 0 minutes
- Change the default offer expiry date if necessary
- Set a grace period that allows parents to accept their offer for a short period after the expiry
Make sure your school's basic information is in place.
Please read the step by step instructions here:
Form Fields
EnrolHQ provides the ability for you to turn on and off form fields (questions), set the fields as mandatory, in some cases re-label the field, and also display help text against the field to help guide the parents. To do this you need to go to Settings > Form Fields
Go into each question and enable/disable the questions you wish to have.
To edit all other fields, we recommend you open up the Application Form found on https://yourschooldomain.com/student/enrolment in a new tab so you can test your updates as you make them inside the Admin Settings under Settings > Form Fields.
Often you'll want to add some custom questions for students to fill in. You can do this by adding multiple fields under the Questionnaire section and enabling them for your form.
Parent Signature Settings
Go to Settings > School Details > Parent Signatures
- Tick "Enrolment Application Form Requires Signatures" - this will provide signature boxes for parents to sign with their finger on a touch device or use the touchpad on laptop.
- Select which parent relationships are allowed to do a split signature workflow by adding options to "Separated Parent Signatures Workflow Enabled For Following Parent Relationships". Split signatures allow the person filling out the form to tick a box that says Parent/Carer 2 is not available to sign. The school may contact Parent/Carer 2 by other means and ask them to sign later.
- If you want to collect Parent IDs at this point then you may tick the "Require ID Image Upload"
Customisation
To edit the Application Form step labels, you can do so inside the customisation page by going to Settings > Customisation > Enrolment Application and Expression of Interest forms. Remember to save after making the changes.
To edit the content that shows on the start page of the Application Form, use the following box.
