The Application field set is a subset of the Applicant field set. When you add an Applicant field set to a form, it includes the Application field set. It set includes fields that map to the Applications tab of an applicant record in The Education Edge.
The Application Type, School Apply, Year Apply, Grade Level Apply, Current Status, Status Date, and Status Reason fields also map to the Bio 1 tab of an applicant record
This field set is not available on Online Reenrollment forms.
Warning: When you create an applicant record in The Education Edge, the program requires entries in the School apply, Grade left, and Current status fields. Therefore, you must include the corresponding fields on your Online Admissions form. Without data from required fields, you cannot successfully process applications in the Online Admissions and Online Reenrollment Plug-in. However, if you do not want to collect this data from applicants, you can hide the fields on the form and enter default values. For information about how to adjust these field properties, see Properties of Form Elements.
Warning: The Grade Level Apply, Grade Enrolled, and Grade Left fields only map to corresponding fields in The Education Edge. If you include Grade Level Apply on applications that map to Blackbaud Student Information System, you will receive an error when you process applications in the Online Admissions and Online Reenrollment Plug-in. We also recommend that you do not include Grade Enrolled and Grade Left fields on applications that map to Blackbaud Student Information System.
Note: The School Year Apply field presents applicants with the options available in Configuration, Academic Years in The Education Edge. The selection users make in this field maps to both the School apply and Year apply fields.

Warning: By default, the Class of field inherits a four-character limit from The Education Edge. If you increase the character limit in the Form Designer, you may lose data that website users submit.
Note: By default, the Application Date, Date Enrolled From, Date Enrolled To, and Graduation Date fields use the U.S. date validator, and the Class Of field uses the Numeric validator. For information about validators, see Validators.
