Overview
The applicant’s Registration Page serves as the starting point of your communication with your prospective student. When applicants open the Registration Form link, it requires them to enter four of the required personal details (First Name, Last Name, Birth Date, and Email Address). These are also the minimum required four fields to create a student record in Paradigm.
