Admissions Feature Overview
Brightwheel has many admissions features that can be used to help with tracking enrollment, registering new families, and collecting required documentation for your program.
Administrators can utilize our Programs and Waitlist features that help prioritize who to admit to their programs when an opening arises. For new students, or returning students administrators can customize and send Forms in brightwheel to collect key information and required documents from families. To keep track of it all, administrators can utilize our Admissions Process & Tracker to easily organize enrollment steps and track family progress.
