Frequently Asked Questions

SIGNUP & LOGIN

Q1) What is your website www.schoolling.com all about?

A1) Schoolling is an initiative, which enables the parents to apply to multiple schools by filling a single online application form. With the majority of parents falling into working class these days, they have to manage their leaves at work in order to visit the schools to collect/submit forms. Keeping all this in mind, we provide a platform for parents to complete the application process along with online submissions & timely updates on important dates & documentation, all without visiting the school for registrations. In any case we do not confirm school admission of the child.
