USE CASE

Course enrollment forms

Enrollment over an emailed PDF means a beginner lands in the advanced cohort, the start date is whatever the reply guessed, and the roster gets rebuilt by hand from a dozen half-legible forms.

A course with three tracks and rolling start dates cannot run off a single date box and a free-text course name — the placement and the cohort have to be part of the enrollment, not a follow-up email.

STEP BY STEP

How you’d run it in FormNest

  1. 01

    Let the student pick their track

    The course field lists the tracks you actually run, so every enrollment names a real programme from the start — not a free-text guess someone has to map to a cohort afterward.

  2. 02

    Self-place by experience level

    The experience step sorts beginners from advanced students as they enroll, and a conditional rule can surface a prerequisite check when someone picks a level above the track's entry point.

  3. 03

    Set the cohort start date

    The preferred-start date attaches each student to a real intake, so a rolling-admissions academy groups enrollments into cohorts as they arrive instead of chasing availability by email.

  4. 04

    Build the roster without retyping it

    Once a cohort fills, the enrollments export straight to a CSV your LMS or spreadsheet can ingest — the class list assembles itself from the responses instead of a morning of copy-paste.
