Set up EOI/Scholarship Form

Updated: 4 months, 3 weeks ago

This guide will show you how to set up the expression of interest form and how to repurpose your EOI form to collect scholarship applications. Most schools don't use the EOI form, which contains the same fields and the same functionality as the enrolment form, and which is perfect for scholarship applications.

In case your school is using the EOI form as well as the Enrolment forms, then you will need a separate instance of EnrolHQ for your scholarships. Please write to support@enrolhq.com.au if that's the case.

Activate and rename the expression of interest stage

Go to Settings > Enrolment Journey Stages and activate the expression of interest stage. You can now rename it to "Scholarship Application"

Expression of Interest /Scholarship workflow

Go to Settings > School Details and find the "Expression of Interest/Scholarship Workflow" box.

Choose which stages the expression of interest/scholarship application should be available in the parent dashboard

Put in a URL Path. The URL path will be the URL for the parents to visit and fill in the scholarship form.

Enabling this will automatically open a new field under Contacts called "Scholarship Application" where all your students in this status will be.

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. You can simply add something like (For a student to fill in) to the form label.

Parent signature settings

Go to Settings > School Details > Parent Signatures

  • Tick "Scholarship 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.
  • Elect 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"
