      Registration Modes: When to use 'Register' or 'Apply'

      Have more interest than you have seats? Hosting tryouts or auditions? Congratulations! You have a really popular activity, and you may need the flexibility of Registration Modes.

       

      This article will explain the different Registration Modes and how and when to use them.

       

      When you are setting up your activity, you can select from two Registration Modes:

       

      Register or Apply.

      When set to Register Mode, students are reserved a seat in an activity immediately after registering (as long as there are still available seats left).

       

      When set to Apply Mode, students can only apply for registration and are only reserved a seat either by random selection or by being manually placed in a seat by a platform admin.

       

      Using AfterSchool HQ Registration Apply Mode is the perfect way to run a lottery randomization selection process, so all students have an equal chance of being admitted into your program.

       

      This guide will walk you through the steps to Registration Modes: When to use 'Register' or 'Apply' using Afterschoolhq.
