What Avela Apply is
Avela Apply is web-based software for managing application workflows at school districts, charter networks and early childhood programs. Staff can build customizable forms with short-answer questions, validated fields, dropdowns, toggles and document uploads. Conditional questions can appear based on a family’s earlier responses. Review tags and configurable workflows help staff organize submissions, while capacity settings by school, site, grade, program or other group support open enrollment, waitlists and offers. Families can use mobile-friendly applications in more than 100 languages and track application status. Login options include email and password, passwordless mobile access and single sign-on through common authentication standards. The staff dashboard offers application funnel metrics, quick filters and custom reporting, and administrators can export application data. Avela says customers retain ownership of their data, and describes SOC 2 Type II compliance and encryption in transit with TLS and at rest with AES 256-bit encryption. A HubSpot connector syncs applications, students and parents in one direction; HIVE Strategy sells that connector. Pricing is on request.
