In School Settings, set your school's address, time zone and admissions contact, academic information, themes and buttons, school photos and login background.
School Information Tab
Under School Information, set your school’s information, including address, time zone, and phone number. Enable Amap (recommended for Chinese schools) and/or remove the gender field if needed.
Under School Contact Information, set your school’s primary admissions contact person. Any replies to automated messages will be sent to this inbox, so we recommend using a general or shared e-mail account.
You can choose to display your school logo in a Square or a Horizontal format, depending on its shape and size.
Upload regular and high-resolution versions of your school logo to display online and on your invoices.
You may upload a Navigation Icon to have it displayed in the top navigation bar.
NOTE: You will need to enable the School Logo on your invoice template to have it show up there.
Under Page Layout, you can select either Complete or Lite. The Complete version includes a landing page with information and photos, while the Lite version provides a minimalist alternative. Enabling the Overview of the Applicant Profile pulls core demographic data together on the applicant profile.
On the rest of the page, you can set your page order preferences, exam score settings, captcha options and PDF options.
Click Save Changes when done.
Academic Information
Under the Academic Information tab, indicate if your school is in the Northern or Southern hemisphere, and select which academic years to enable.
This is integrated with your application form, so applicants can apply for only enabled academic years.
Lastly, set your options for dates, daily digests, the export date format and student status notification.
Themes and Buttons
Choose your colour scheme and layout. We offer hex colour codes so you can match your school colours precisely.
You can also find the HTML code to embed an OpenApply button in your school website.
School Photos
Share photos of your school. Uploading multiple photos will create a rotating carousel of photos on your landing page. Photos can be provided in PNG, JPEG or GIF format, and we recommend to crop them to be 732px (W) by 330px (H) (or a multiple of these dimensions) before uploading, for the best results.
Login Background
Select from one of our pre-set background images or upload your own background image for your OpenApply Login page.
Things to know
- A non-binary gender option can be turned on in your school settings.
- Buttons in Themes & Buttons link to the enquiry form, the application form or events. Renaming a button does not change where it goes, so check each button's destination after you rename it.
