2. Write a welcome message, a description, or instructions on filling in the application form, shown to applicants when they open the application form link.

4. Create application statuses such as Pending, Allotted and Rejected.

7. Set the application filling instructions. Enter any information and general guidelines candidates should read before filling in the form, then save. With Course Specific selected, you can add class-specific instructions that are shown once an applicant selects that class. To hide this section, click Disable Application Instruction.

8. Customise the application form. All courses use this form by default. See How to customise the application form.

9. Set up application statuses. An application may pass through several stages before it is allotted or discarded. Add statuses that match your admission process; you can then filter each class’s applicants by status. Make sure each status represents an offline step your admission staff take to evaluate an application, and give it a clear description. See What are application statuses and how to set them up.
