Create a school

This concept does not apply if you self-host CourseLit. In the self hosted instance, you get only one school.

Let’s get you a free 14 days subscription on CourseLit.

  9. Go to your new school by clicking on the Go to school link against your school name.

Sign into your school as admin

We set up an admin user i.e. a user having all the privileges automatically while creating your school. Its email ID is the same as the one your are signed in with in CourseLit.

Your school uses the same mechanics as CourseLit to sign a user in i.e. sending a magic link over email. Click on the top right button on your school’s page to sign in.
