Reviewing an Application

Via PDF Bundle - You can choose to do both the document review and the application review by downloading the Print Submitted form with all documents as a PDF.(This is displayed in Box 8 above) It should be noted that as part of our document security the downloaded document is only available for 30mins before the link expires. See section Verifying Documents

Via Documents Tab - You can go to the Documents tab and view each document individually and compare the details to the application data found in student and Parent 1 and Parent 2 view.

Checking payments

Payments are recorded against the application for all the various enrolment journey stages.

  4. Resent Email Receipt - if finance or parents require another copy
  5. Mark as Refunded - this does not refund the money but is a transactional record to show within EnrolHQ - this step must be completed by finance.

Requesting Parent 2 Signature

Check first whether or not it is a true single parent family by looking at Court Orders and answers provided for 'Parents Relationship'

If it's not a true single parent family - you can request Parent 2 signature or Waive Parent 2 Signature this is in both the application and offer stage.

1 Request Parent 2 signature - this will send the signature link to the Parent 2 to sign either the application or offer of a place.

2 Waive Parent 2 Signature - this will allow the application or offer of a place to proceed without a second signature

If you select 'No' then the parents will be required to re-upload the incorrect documents. Note: only verified documents will be transferred to the School Management System (Edumate. TASS, Synergetic etc)
