  2. How to Create an Applicant Account

To begin using Applyindex’s comprehensive range of features and tools, it is essential for all applicants to first sign up or register on the website by creating an account. This process is straightforward but crucial for accessing the full benefits of our platform. To assist you, we have provided a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to create an applicant account. Simply follow the instructions below to get started:

Account Creation Buttons

Throughout the website, you’ll encounter two main buttons designed to help you get started: “Sign Up” and “Try for Free.” When you click either of these buttons, you’ll be guided to a page where you can choose between two options: “As an Applicant” or “As a Supervisor”. If you’re looking to apply to universities, be sure to select the “As an Applicant” option to set up your profile and begin your journey. This step ensures that all features and resources tailored for applicants are readily available to you.

   

Registration Form

Step 1: Personal Information

After clicking on the “As an Applicant” option, you will be directed to a registration form that consists of four steps. Please ensure that you enter all your personal information accurately, as supervisors on the other side of the website are searching for candidates to join their research groups. Providing correct and valid information is crucial to avoid any confusion or misleading connections. Below, you will find a schematic illustration of the 1st step of the registration form.

We have adopted the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). The NPPs govern the way in which we collect, use, disclose, store, secure, and dispose of your Personal Information.
A copy of the Australian Privacy Principles may be obtained from the website of The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at www.asic.gov.au.

     

Step 2: Location and Password

At this stage of the registration process, you will need to select the country where you are currently located, create a secure password, and agree to our Terms and Conditions. To help you proceed smoothly, please keep the following points in mind:

  • Selecting Your Location: It’s important that you select the country where you are physically located, rather than the country you plan to apply to for university studies. This information is necessary for accurate service provision and ensures a smoother application process. Below, you’ll find a detailed schematic of the second step of the registration form to guide you.
  • Creating a Strong Password: Your password is a key aspect of your account’s security. To protect your information, make sure your password includes a combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and at least one special character. A strong password will help keep your account safe from unauthorized access.
  • Agreeing to the Terms and Conditions: Before proceeding, please take a moment to carefully read our Terms and Conditions. This document outlines the rules and responsibilities associated with using our platform. Once you have reviewed the terms, tick the checkbox to confirm your agreement and move on to the next step.

Following these guidelines will help ensure a successful registration and a secure experience with our platform.

    

Step 3: Research Interests

In step 3, which is the most important part of your registration, you must select at least three research interests. The more interests you choose, the more effective our website will be for you. Many features of our platform rely on your selected research interests, so please be accurate and patient in making your selections at this stage. It’s advisable to choose related areas—for example, if you select “Polymer Chemistry,” you might also choose “Polymer Synthesis.” Similarly, if you select “MOF,” consider also choosing “Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs).” If you select “Polymerization,” you might also choose “Polymerisation.” Applyindex is training its AI to recognize identical research areas as well as British and American spellings.

Start typing a few letters of your intended research area, and all related fields and areas in our database will appear for your convenience.

Step 4: Email Verification

Congratulations! Your registration is successfully complete. However, before you can fully utilize all the features and tools available on our website, you still need to verify your email address. This verification step is crucial for ensuring the security of your account and confirming your identity.

In the following screenshot, you will notice the messages: “Your account has been created. Please verify your account; an email has been sent to your email address.” To proceed with the verification, simply check your inbox for the email we’ve sent and follow the provided instructions. Once your email is verified, you can click on “Go to dashboard” to start exploring our platform’s full capabilities.

If you do not see the verification email in your inbox, please check your spam or junk folder, or request a new verification email directly from the dashboard.

If you didn’t verify your email address immediately and return to the website later, you can still complete the verification process. Simply go to your dashboard (see the screenshot below) and click on the “Resend Email” button. This will send a new verification email to your inbox, allowing you to complete the process at your convenience.
