  • Form creators can choose to display only upcoming intakes or all open intakes.
  • Intake selection displays “Starts on…” date when appropriate.

Organisation Field Type

Forms can now include organisation information fields with multiple organisations per form. “Organisation Type” must be selected in the form builder, filtering the dropdown selection visible to applicants to show only organisations of that type.

NSN is now automatically marked as verified on student creation when retrieved via NSI integration.
