application management software schools Designed Just For You

We understand that you need to collect supplementary information from your parents for those that have applied for a place at your school. We also understand that if you can avoid data entering tasks, you will want to, and if you can increase your engagement with parents from the onset, that's a bonus!
HEIapply is empowering junior and secondary schools worldwide to be better at streamlining admissions processes. Our intuitive online system is designed to complement and enhance your processes, enabling the ultimate applicant journey.

The Challenge


We understand that your school is home to children from across different catchments, neighbouring areas and sometimes from further afield. We know that means hundreds of applications need to be processed quickly and easily as parents wish to secure a place for their child’s education.

Oversubscription is often a huge part of the application process and carries a heavy burden on the administration team to keep eager parents informed at every stage. This coupled with needing to obtain accurate supplementary information from parents about their children adds an additional layer of juggling!


As if this wasn’t complex enough, the admissions process is intricate and varied. Some requiring interviews, some requiring assessment days - all requiring tools to be able to keep the parents and children engaged.

Locally managed Junior and Secondary Schools are at risk of falling short on delivering the applicant journey the modern day applicant expects.

Our Solution

We recognise the need for Junior and Secondary Schools to operate efficiently, effectively and competitively. We know that speed and cost efficiency are hugely important.

That’s why we work with you to ensure that we have all the vital ingredients to create your perfect admissions solution at a budget that works for you.

Common Questions asked by locally managed Junior and Secondary Schools

Simply go to the login page and click on forgot password, enter the email address that was used when setting up the account and click send. An email will be sent to that email address with a web link that can be followed to reset the password.

Yes! The HEIapply Applicant Portal is designed to create an easy and seamless applicant journey. The parent can register, begin filling out an application and return to it later. Applications are always saved so that the parent can resume later and continue on from where they stopped.

Yes they can! The Applicant Portal comes with an inbuilt Communication Inbox for every applicant. Here the parent can see a log of all communication (including emails, letters or instant messages) with your admissions team and also send new instant messages, should they have any questions or concerns.

This is where the communications inbox comes into play. When logged into the system, the parent is able to send a message to the admin team informing them of the mistake they have made. Any replies from the admin team will be listed here as well.

It is possible to withdraw the application at anytime. The parent can simply use the communication inbox to convey this information to the admin staff who will then be able to make all the necessary arrangements.

Yes it is! The Bulk Email functionality includes creating an Email List using filters that you apply to the data already within the system. You can apply one or as many filters as required to refine or widen the selection of applicants. There is no need to import CSV's, as all applicant email information already exists inside HEIapply.

Yes! You can embed the forms generated by HEIapply on your school's website and link to the HEIapply applicant portal on any relevant page of the website.

Yes! Your admissions team is able to apply searches and filters to run reports on the data inside HEIapply and export the results to csv or pdf format

Both the applicant and admin portals come with an in-built communications inbox meaning both parties are able to keep up to date with the progress of the application process. Here admin staff, once logged in to the dashboard, can simply select the applicant they wish to make contact with a reply to them directly and privately.

Yes! With HEIapply you can pre-define a standard process for each application route which translates to the Application Progress Meter inside each application received by your admissions team. When an admin progresses the application through the stages, automated email notifications are sent out to the applicants and their parents to update them.
