What is SchoolMint?
SchoolMint is a student enrollment software for PreK-12 schools, districts and cities. Designed to streamline the school enrollment process, SchoolMint incorporates application and lottery management, registration management and recruitment management technology alongside school choice, unified enrollment and digital form and document features.
With online application and lottery management functionality, users can automate school applications, lotteries, and waitlists. SchoolMint’s central platform enables users to manage application forms, view analytics and track open seats in real time, run transparent lotteries, and integrate with school information systems (SIS). Users can also manage registration forms, re-enrollment forms, and track registration and enrollment status in real time.
SchoolMint serves to enhance the school choice and participation experience with school choice and open enrollment management features, which allow users to manage school information and enrollment processes as well as monitor enrollment demand, via SchoolMint’s centralized reporting system. Facilitating digital form and document management, SchoolMint enables users to create and track custom forms and upload and store student documents.
SchoolMint grants users the flexibility to track and manage applications via a native, multilingual mobile app for iOS and Android. The mobile app allows parents to apply to schools, register students and complete and submit forms from anywhere, at any time. The app can also be utilized to communicate with parents via text, email, and in-app notifications.

It has streamlined my process so much that I only need a little help now! Once we get all of our forms figured out and set up, it will be even easier! And once everyone gets used to the fact that they can use the spreadsheet and no longer need to have the paper in their hand, it will cut down on even more time and paper waste.

I love all the customized aspects that meet our specific needs. Love the scheduling feature!
Most of all, I love the customer support!!!
Support lacking
I do think this could be a good product, but the support is usually only offered a few days after I submit a ticket. I was also told that I would not be able to get my re-enrollment online for another 2 months because I missed a deadline (while I was waiting on support)! Hopefully others have a better experience. Maybe it's just the people assigned to my school.
Mostly good, not great, customer service could be better
We managed our lottery efficiently and the subsequent offers of space.

This is our 2nd year using SchoolMint for re-enrollment and I love how it's streamlined the process!
Pros
The ease in communicating with our entire school community. The ability to sort and download the information. The ease in which we can conduct our lotteries, and sort and organize our waitlist. The quick reaction time for customer support when small issues arise. The ability to build our own forms to our own specs so we can collect information for our specific needs and state requirements. The companies quick and open response to suggestions from and accommodations for their clients. And the overall respect with which they treat their clients. This all contributes to the whole sense of family and a caring community.
Cons
I only wish they also supported a database!
The most difficult thing about having online paperwork is making sure everyone has access and knowledge on how to use it. SchoolMint is wonderful about helping the families with issues, but they can't help with everyone having access! :)
We have been using Smart Choice for many years and their products have exceeded our expectations!

Most of all, I love the customer support!!!
Pros
We use Smart Choice for our online applications and lotteries and recently added their services for permits, which is going great! I love the customer support. The reps are always quick and responsive to even the smallest issue and if my rep is unavailable, someone else responds on her behalf right away. Working collaboratively with the reps and developers is my favorite thing - no question goes unanswered, I can't say enough about how important and impressive that is.
One of my favorite features which is absolutely worth the money is the scheduling feature!! What a time saver and so easy to use!
I also love that I can create my own deliverables and customize how I use them.
The lotteries have worked very well for us and we have a lot of custom priorities that the system handles very well.
Cons
Like the other reviewers, I feel that creating reports is the most tedious and unintuitive part of the system. Lots and lots of trial and error in that area. We can finally duplicate a report which is helpful to a least have some of the info already available when creating a new report. Luckily the reps and develops are helpful, but I would like to be able to do more of it myself. Now that we use Smart Choice for our permits in addition to our lottery, it is a little confusing go and back and forth between the newer permit system and the old lottery system. It would be nice if they were they same.
A minor thing I don't like in the new system, is that I can't see the parent notes without clicking on them, in the old system I could see all of the notes at the same time.
Another thing that would be helpful is to be able to sort by more than one column header while looking at the application management page. Filters are useful for the most part, but sometimes the extra layer of sorting would be helpful.

Pros
We purchased this software to help us automate enrollment and our lottery process.
Cons
Initial training was offered, but when that person left the organization, follow up training has been below expectations. School Mint's idea of training or support is to send a tutorial link that's an hour long when you only need 5 min. of the video. I spend more time trying to figure out my own solutions rather than getting actual support. Charter schools usually have a great deal of turn over in the first few years. They need to learn more about the people they work with and provide support so the product is actually useful.

Mostly good, not great, customer service could be better
We managed our lottery efficiently and the subsequent offers of space.
Pros
Easy to setup, easy to communicate with various groups, fairly intuitive. Forms are simple to put together but a little but limited in what you can do.
Cons
Reporting is so-so, I wish it were more customizable. The search feature is limited (you can't search for a parent name). If you want to export your data into your SIS system - good luck, it takes them a month to create the file!
Amazing! Our school administration and campus registrars love it!
Pros
It is 100% online. This alone has saved our campuses many hours in going through paper applications and parents can chose more than 1 school at the same time without having to complete a new paper application.
I love the conditional formatting, scheduling of messages and the defaulting of today's date enhancements added this year.
We are able to get incoming students set up very quickly for testing or find potential needs for students earlier by collecting the information earlier in the process than we have in the past since the forms are so easy to use online.
Wonderful tool to collect enrollment data and create projections when we start year 3. This helps locate the grades of greatest needs so we can concentrate marketing in the locations and grades we need as well.
Cons
No way to stop users from creating multiple accounts year to year when they cannot remember their password or username - I have parents with 3 user names for 1 student and 3 siblings with different usernames. We send them the username in all communication, but parents still create new accounts!
We would really love a view only or a way for certain groups to be able to print their own forms, such as Nurses or principals. We would not want them having the ability to make any changes, but if they could look at the information and print out anything pertaining to their department, then this would eliminate the need for the registrar to do it for them.
The feeder campuses and administration would love a way to see which campus the re-enrolled student came from the prior year. For example, the Junior High campus cannot see which elementary campus the re-enrolled student came from. Since we are open boundaries, there are 5 elementaries that feed into 2 different junior highs. But the student can pick either junior high. So to get the records to the right school, I have to go through and find the info student by student since I have full access.
