Overview

Adibb Student Pre-registration, Admissions & Enrollment gives your institution one secure, enterprise-grade system to guide families from first interest to first day of class. Replace scattered forms, email chains, and spreadsheets with a configurable pipeline: Pre-registration → Application → Screening & Scheduling → Committee Review → Offers/Waitlists/Rejections → Enrollment & Handover.
The platform is bilingual by design (FA/EN), supports RTL layouts, and respects local calendars, holidays, currencies, and tax rules. Families get a mobile-first portal; admissions teams get a powerful CRM; finance teams get built-in payments with domestic gateways and international processors; and leadership gets real-time analytics for demand planning and yield optimization.
When a family accepts an offer, Adibb LMS automatically creates learner and guardian accounts, places students into classes and calendars, and syncs rosters, so teaching can start without handoffs or data re-entry.

Who it serves

• Families & Students
  • Pre-register interest, complete a common application, upload documents, sign guardianship and consent forms, pay fees, request scholarships, and track status on web or mobile (Persian/English, RTL).
• Admissions & Registrar Teams
  • Configure forms and rules, triage applications, schedule tests/interviews, run fair reviews, manage waitlists/lotteries, issue offers, capture deposits, and finalize enrollment tasks.
• Counselors & Agents (optional)
  • Manage cohorts across schools under KYC-verified accounts, submit documents on behalf of families, and track role-based commissions with transparent audit logs.
• School Leadership (Principals, Deans)
  • Monitor funnel health and yield by program/campus, forecast staffing and seat capacity, and evaluate scholarship utilization and ROI.
• Finance
  • Use integrated invoicing, escrow for application fees, refunds, installment plans, multi-currency settlement, and automated reconciliation.
