Admissions had to continue without campus visits
When COVID-19 lockdowns began in 2020, students and parents could no longer visit campus to submit physical application forms. CARE needed to keep enrollment moving while minimizing in-person interactions and protecting the community.
- Move the admission process online quickly.
- Make application forms accessible to students and parents from any location.
- Collect and track applicant information efficiently.
- Maintain the admissions timeline without compromising safety.
A familiar application process, delivered online
As CARE’s in-house digital solutions partner, Senthuraa Technologies recommended Zoho Forms as a quick, reliable way to bring admissions online.
Senthuraa created and customized separate Zoho Forms for bachelor’s and master’s degree programs, then embedded them directly on the CARE website so applicants could find and complete them easily. Submission data was streamlined within Zoho to simplify internal processing, with the broader Zoho ecosystem available for further integration.
The implementation helped CARE maintain its admissions timeline without delays or added administrative overhead while following COVID-19 safety protocols.
A contactless process applicants could access anywhere
The Zoho Forms implementation gave CARE a practical digital admission process during a period when traditional, in-person applications were not possible.
- A fully paperless admission system.
- Instant access for applicants and parents from any location.
- No delays in application submission and processing.
- A scalable digital solution that can be reused or enhanced in future academic years.
Support that made a difficult transition easier
During this COVID situation, we were struggling to figure out the best way to bring college admissions online. Veera from Senthuraa explained the advantages and ease of using Zoho Forms. He then assisted us in creating our Online Application Form. Thank you, Veera, for your timely support and friendly manner in explaining features to us.
