    Navigation Custom Campus Fields list actions Add a campus custom field

    If you manage campuses, you can gain deeper insights into your campus recruiting efforts with the introduction of custom fields and attributes for college campuses. You can tailor your data collection and categorization to match your campus recruiting needs, allowing you to analyze campus information and make informed decisions about which schools to prioritize for your university recruiting initiatives. 


    Navigation

    You can navigate to the Custom Campus Fields page by following the steps below.

    1. Select All Apps in the top left corner of the header and then Campus from its drop-down menu.
    2. In the bottom of the Campus page's left panel, select the Campus Settings button.

    Learn more about the Custom Campus Fields permission in Campus Attributes.

     

    The Custom Campus Fields list includes the fields that you can use while creating your campus. Adjusting the fields in this list will then reflect what will be present when building campuses. From here, you can remove and add custom campus fields to ensure that each campus includes the most relevant information for your client’s company.

    By default, you can see the following custom campus fields and its configurations:

    • Campus Acronym
    • Campus Mascot

    Custom Campus Fields list actions

    From the Custom Campus Fields list, you can complete the following actions:

    1. Reorder fields: This allows you to reorder how the default creation fields are displayed in this list and when creating a new campus. By selecting this, the Reorder Fields modal displays, where you can select a field’s multi-dot icon and then drag and drop the field in the correct order. Select Save to apply the changes made.
    2. Search bar: This allows you to search the list for the characters entered.
    3. + Add New Field button: When selected, this allows you to add the following campus attributes:
      • Custom Fields
      • Campus Acronym
      • Campus Mascot
    4. Action menu/ellipses: This menu includes the following action options:
      • Edit: This opens the campus field’s details in a drawer where you can make any necessary changes.
      • Delete: This deletes the campus field from the list. You can always add this field back via the + Add New Field button.
    5. Field Required toggle: When enabled, this marks the field as required to complete within the Campus Builder.

    Add a campus custom field

    From the + Add New Field button in the upper-right corner above the list, you have the option to add back the default Custom Campus Fields if they were previously deleted/removed (Campus Acronym and Campus Mascot), or add a new custom field.

    If it is currently included in the Custom Campus Fields list, then you do not have the option to re-add the field.

     

    To add a custom campus field, follow the steps below:

    1. In the upper-right corner of the Custom Campus Fields list, select the + Add New Field button.
    2. From its dropdown menu, select Custom Field.
    3. In the Add New Custom Field slide-out drawer, fill in the following information:
      • Field Name: Name your custom field.
      • Help Text: Add help text, a description of the custom field that lives in a tooltip next to the Field Name for reference.
      • Campus Attribute: Select a campus attribute tied to the campus field, if applicable.
      • Answer Type: Select the format of this field’s answer. Options include the following:
        • Open Ended
          • Note: This will be automatically disabled from selection when a list select attribute is selected.
        • Text Selection
        • Single Selection
        • Multi-Selection
          • Note: If only one response is configured, it cannot be deleted.
        • Dropdown
      • Validation: This will only display for Open Ended answer types. Options for validation include the following:
        • No Validation
        • Currency
        • Numbers
    4. In the lower-right corner of the drawer, select the Save button to add the new field to the Custom Campus Fields list.
