What Needs To Be Edited

Here are the list of what needs to be edited, maybe needs to be edited, or completely do not touch.

⁠

Application Stats⁠

: Only if you add a new type of stats question on the application form, will you need to add a chart for it, otherwise DO NOT TOUCH.

⁠

Submission Timeline⁠

: Need to add open and close dates of application, and populate the timeline chart.

⁠

Acceptances⁠

Rejections⁠

: If you want to add or remove additional criteria that accepts/rejects an applicant, you can do in the Filter tab on each table.

⁠

Applications⁠

: Definitely needs to be edited, such as description of form, questions, form layout, etc.

⁠

Judging⁠

: If you want to hide more columns to ensure more blindness in judging applicants, you can do that in the Columns tab of the table.

⁠

Tag Tables⁠

: Only edit if you want to change the options on the list-questions on the application form.

Recommendations

Delete this page after you are done using these instructions. Coda, on the free tier, has space restrictions, so freeing up as much space as possible will be nice when applications come in.

Feel free to delete the Overview instructions at the top of each page, as well.
