The Challenge
The year 2020 brought unprecedented disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting industries worldwide with the education sector among the hardest hit.
With lockdowns in place, the traditional admission process at CARE which involved students or parents visiting campus to submit physical application forms was no longer feasible. The institution faced mounting pressure to:
Digitize its admission process
Minimize in-person interactions
Continue enrollment activities without compromising safety
This demanded a quick, reliable, and accessible digital solution that could replicate the offline experience while maintaining efficiency.
The Requirement
Paperless, contactless admission process
Easy online form access for students and parents
Efficient data collection and tracking
Fast implementation during a time-sensitive period
Solution by Senthuraa
As an in-house digital solutions partner of CARE, Senthuraa Technologies recommended implementing Zoho Forms to manage online admissions quickly and effectively.
The solution involved:
Creating and customizing separate Zoho Forms for bachelor’s and master’s degree programs
Embedding the forms directly on the CARE website for easy student access
Streamlining submission data within Zoho to simplify internal processing
Demonstrating the additional benefits and seamless integration capabilities within the broader Zoho ecosystem
The initiative allowed CARE to maintain its admissions timeline without delays or administrative overhead, all while adhering to COVID-19 safety protocols.
In addition, we also explain about the different Zoho Application features and tight integration in Zoho Application.
Business Impact
The Zoho Forms implementation resulted in:
A fully paperless admission system
Instant accessibility for applicants and parents from any location
Zero delays in application submission and processing
A scalable digital solution that could be reused or enhanced in future academic years
