Admission Enquiry Lead Qualification Bot for Schools on WhatsApp

A parent messages "looking for admission for my daughter" — the bot asks whether it's a new admission or a transfer, genuinely branches into grade selection either way, then books a campus tour date before routing to an admissions counselor.

Option 1

Build it as a Manual Bot

Branches at the first question — New Admission collects the grade and child's age, Transfer collects the grade and current school name — both paths reconverge at locality, campus tour scheduling, tagging and counselor routing.

Option 2

Build it as an AI Agent Bot

The assistant handles fee, curriculum and transfer-credit questions in whatever order a parent asks them, while still gathering the same qualifying details a manual flow would collect.

hi looking for admission for my daughter, shes in grade 3 now10:01 AM
Wonderful! Is this a fresh admission, or is she transferring from another school?10:01 AM
transferring, current school isnt working out10:01 AM
Understood. Which school is she currently at, so we can look at her transfer requirements?10:01 AM

Unlike the manual bot above, this isn't one node in a flow — it's a separate AI assistant mode that takes over the entire conversation and replies in natural language until it's switched off.

Which fits this use case?

Manual bot: fast, consistent triage into New Admission vs Transfer, but a parent with fee, curriculum and sibling-discount questions gets a generic tour-booking flow with no answers until a counselor calls.
AI agent: answers fee structure, sibling discounts, curriculum and transfer-certificate questions immediately, and books the campus tour in the same conversation — closer to how an admissions office actually operates.
Best fit here: manual bot for high-volume enquiry season when consistent qualification matters most; AI agent for parents actively comparing schools, where detailed answers genuinely influence the decision.

Frequently asked questions

Does the bot ask different questions for new admissions vs transfers?+
Yes — Quick Reply is the real branch point: New Admission collects grade and child's age, Transfer collects grade and current school name, and both reconverge at campus and tour-date collection.
What happens with an invalid campus tour date?+
The Date Input node re-prompts with a validation message instead of silently failing or breaking the flow.
Can this route to a specific campus's admissions team?+
Yes — the Team Assignment node's "Assign To" field can point at a campus-specific counselor instead of a generic one, based on the Ask Location answer.
Is this available on Instagram and Messenger too?+
Yes — the same Trigger → Quick Reply → List branching model runs identically on WhatsApp, Instagram DMs and Messenger.
