OpenApply
OpenApply supports school admissions from a family's first enquiry through enrolment. Parents can apply and re-enrol, track progress, receive updates and register for school events. It is positioned for international and independent schools, new schools, Greater China schools and school groups. The web application is hosted on OpenApply's servers and requires an internet connection and a modern browser with JavaScript enabled. OpenApply says application forms are built within 24–48 hours and typical implementation takes 4–6 weeks. Listed integrations include payment services such as Flywire, Alipay, WeChat and Stripe, alongside school systems including PowerSchool and iSAMS. Schools can export applicant and family information in PDF and Excel CSV formats; all stored information is exportable. A public API provides access to data and files. OpenApply says it is ISO 27001 compliant and encrypts data between users and its systems with SSL by default. Pricing is on request, with subscription fees based on enrolled student numbers. A free plan is listed, while the School Group Dashboard is an optional paid upgrade.
