International Schools

The Challenge

International Schools are home to students from across different regions and across the globe. We know that means hundreds of applications from countries all over the world trying to secure a place for education.

Expat families who apply aren’t necessarily timing their migration to standard term times, which means several more in-term applications for a place outside of the normal recruitment cycle are expected than at other schools.

As if this wasn’t complex enough, the admissions process is intricate and varied requiring medical, financial and immigration information from the beginning. With high levels of manual effort involved, multiple currencies and lower levels of customer engagement,

International Schools are at risk of falling short on delivering the applicant journey the modern day applicant expects.

Our Solution

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

HUBapply is a comprehensive and powerful solution that provides the ultimate pupil recruitment and admissions CRM system for your whole team. Paperless and online, HUBapply manages the end-to-end admissions journey from enquiry to enrolment.

Common Questions asked by International Schools

Parent has forgotten their password. How is access regained?

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.
Can a parent resume with an application they have already started?

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.
A parent needs to contact the admin team regarding a question on the application form. Can they do this?

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.
A parent has made a mistake on the application form, but after it has been submitted. How do they rectify the error?

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.
A parent has changed their mind and wishes to withdraw their application. How do they do this?

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.
Is it possible for Admin to send a bulk email to a selection of applicants?

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.
Is it possible to display a link to the relevant form on the school's website?

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.
Are admin staff able to search, filter, report and export data out of the system?

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
Is it possible for admin staff to respond directly to a private message?

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.
Can admin progress an applicant quickly through a standard process with automated notifications?

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.
