How should I reduce the number of input fields in the academy consultation form?

You can tell by the timing of the question, not the number. It's never too late to leave only what you need to contact us on the form and ask for the rest on the phone. When I opened 43 academy websites, 14 of them had consultation forms, and the number of questions asked ranged from 4 to 27. It varies from academy to academy, but in most cases, you can get in touch with your name, contact information, and available time. However, if you are receiving student information, you must leave the consent box.

Key takeaways

  • If you are stuck on the screen while trying to apply for a consultation, What to decide after receiving consultationIt is likely that this is the form that is asked first in the application.
  • When I opened 43 academy websites, 14 of them had consultation forms. From 4 to 27It was.
  • The criterion for reducing spaces is not the number, but When to askno see. However, if you are receiving student information, leave the consent box.

They say write down things you haven't decided on yet first.

There is not much parents know when they apply for counseling. All I ask is to take a look at the child. However, on the application screen Current grade, desired class, and target scoreis placed as a required field. These three items are usually decided after consultation.

If your hand stops at this point, the consultation will not come. People who fill out the application form do not return, and the academy does not even know that the person came and went.

43 consultation forms actually ask questions

I didn't feel it, I counted it. Measurements were made at 43 of 44 academy homepages collected through web searches. I looked for the consultation form on the website, and if it wasn't there, I went to the consultation/inquiry page one more time and found it again.

This sample is This is not a probability sample. Since the places that rank highest in searches are selected, more national chains, civil servants, and boarding academies were included than the actual industry distribution. So I wrote it as a number instead of a ratio. Measured on August 31, 2026.

The standard for reduction is not quantity but timing.

The standard of “reduce it to a few spaces” does not apply to each academy. The subjects are different and the counseling methods are different. Instead, if you ask questions one by one, it will be different. Is this field necessary to contact me now, or can I ask about it in a phone call?

rather than eliminating it putting offno see. Circumstances vary from academy to academy, but in most cases, we can contact you with your name, contact information, and available hours. The rest can be filled in 3 minutes over the phone.

When you reduce the columns, you may end up deleting even the agreement column. This compartment is not a matter of convenience.

  • Personal Information Protection Act Article 15 Paragraph 1 No. 1It states that personal information can be collected “if the consent of the information subject is obtained.”
  • Article 22-2 Paragraph 1It states that in order to process personal information of children under the age of 14, consent must be obtained from the legal representative, and confirmation of consent must be made.

Of the 14 places we looked at, 5 had a consent checkbox, 4 had only guidance text, and 5 had neither. This value is calculated by reading the checkboxes and radio labels in the form, and is not a value that checks processing methods that are not visible on the screen. This does not determine whether individual academies have violated the law. The article was taken from the original text of the National Legislation Information Center of the Ministry of Government Legislation (effective 2025-10-02).

The last field is a line that appears after sending.

If parents are not sure if it was sent, they can send it again or call to check. If the same inquiry comes in twice, the academy gets confused.

We previously discussed the completion structure of 202 inquiry forms on the other side. statically only I've looked into it. In 107 of them, we were unable to find a structure that notifies us after sending. Since I didn't submit a single form to avoid sending inquiries to someone else's server, I wrote "not found" instead of "none."

Try it today in the consultation form

  • Leave only the spaces necessary to contact us now. Don't delete the rest, just move it to the call script.

I just want to get a consultation, but they ask me to decide first.

Current grades, desired grades, and target scores are determined after consultation. If your hand stops on the application screen, the consultation will not come.

Form asking for things you don't know yet

Four of the eight spaces have not yet been decided.

43 places actually ask questions

The number of questions asked in the 14 places on the form ranged from 4 to 27. The average is 11.4 spaces, and the median is 9.5 spaces.

What to ask now and what to ask on the phone

It's not about getting rid of it, it's about putting it off. Usually, we can contact you with just your name, contact information, and calling time.

Even if I shorten it, I leave the consent box.

If you are under 14 years of age, you must obtain consent from your legal representative. Among the 14 places, there were 5 places with a consent checkbox.

Screen after sending and what to do today

If there is no screen indicating that the request has been submitted, the same inquiry will be received twice. Please leave only the most essential questions today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I reduce the required fields on the consultation form to three?

It varies from academy to academy. This does not mean giving three numbers as the correct answer, but rather asking each question “Is it necessary to contact you now?” If it is a place that only accepts in-person counseling, the desired branch may be required on the form, and if it is an online class, the grade level may be required first. However, most items that are decided after counseling, such as grades or goals, can be postponed over the phone.

Can you talk about the entire academy industry with a sample of 43 places?

I can't say. This sample was collected through a web search, so the top rankings were selected, and more national chains, civil servants, and boarding academies were included than the actual industry distribution. So, in this article, I wrote only numbers instead of ratios, and did not write sentences such as “What is the percentage of the academy form?” What you take away from this is that the distribution ranges from 4 to 27 spaces.

Do I have to use a checkbox to consent to personal information?

The law does not specify the form of the screen. Article 15, Paragraph 2 of the Personal Information Protection Act states that when obtaining consent, the purpose and items of collection and use, retention period, and the fact that you have the right to refuse consent are required. What is important is that the applicant knows what they are consenting to and that that consent remains in verifiable form. How the actual screen is created will depend on the information and procedures being processed, so please check with an expert for specific issues.

Wouldn’t it be better to just dial a phone number?

Here's how. Of the 43 places we looked at, 29 did not have a consultation form, and 22 of them only had a phone number or Kakao channel. However, parents who find out during times when phone calls are difficult will miss out. If you want to leave a form, reduce the number of fields. If you don't want to leave a form, check whether the call can be connected at once and whether the available call time is written on the screen.
