Add the new name pronunciation tool to the application

I love the new name recording tool. I was hoping it would be accessible through the application so that admissions would have the pronunciation from the very beginning of the process. It would benefit the admission staff and we would already have the recording when the candidates become students.

    Hi all!

    This idea is gaining momentum really quickly, so I wanted to jump in to let you know what our team is planning. We researched ways that we could include the name pronunciation tool directly in an application, but we found there wasn't a way for us to include it on the form itself. What we're planning instead is to allow you to include it as a checklist step so families can record their name directly from the candidate checklist. We're planning on having that new option available over the summer so you can include it in your checklist for the upcoming admissions season.

    Kind regards,
    Kelsey Huijgen, Product Manager

    I agree, this would be very helpful right from the beginning of a student's journey with us.
