Online admission portals serve every kind of applicant — including those using screen readers, keyboard navigation or low-bandwidth connections. Accessibility widens your reach and is increasingly a legal expectation.
Semantic forms first
Every input needs an associated label, every error must be announced via aria-describedby, and the tab order must be logical. These basics resolve the majority of accessibility issues on admission forms.
Performance is accessibility
A portal that loads in under two seconds on a 3G connection is more accessible than a flashy one that stalls. We optimize images, defer non-critical scripts and stream pages server-side.
Test with real assistive tech
Automated audits catch perhaps half of all issues. We test critical flows with screen readers and keyboard-only navigation before launch.
