Document Templates

Document Templates let you create standard document types that counselors can assign to students — things like offer letter templates, visa checklists, or guidance documents.

Creating a template

  1. Go to Admin → Document Templates.
  2. Click + New Template.
  3. Fill in:
    • Template name — e.g., “UK Visa Document Checklist”
    • Category — Visa / Academic / Financial / General
    • Description — what this template is for
    • Content — use the rich-text editor to write the template content
    • Variables — insert placeholders like {{student_name}}, {{university}}, {{intake_date}} that are auto-filled when assigned to a student
  4. Click Save.

Using a template

From any student’s profile:
  1. Go to the Documents tab.
  2. Click + Request Document → From Template.
  3. Select the template.
  4. Review the auto-filled variables — adjust if needed.
  5. Click Send to Student.
The student receives a task with the template content and a request to upload the completed document.

Managing templates

  • Edit — click any template to edit its content. Changes apply to future uses only.
  • Duplicate — create a copy to build a variation.
  • Archive — hide a template without deleting (useful for seasonal or one-off templates).
  • Delete — permanently remove.
