Adding Custom Open Registration Questions

You can modify the Open Registration process by adding custom questions tailored for your School District.
  

This is done on the Registration>Open Reg>Custom Questions screen.

Custom Open Registration Questions require either a User Flag or a User Text field be used to capture, store and make available the answer to a question.

The User Text field or the User Flag must exist before you can add the question, so step 1 is creating either a User Text field or a User Flag field.
