Class signup template

Google Forms class signup with seat limits

Use Google Forms for class, cohort, or training signup while keeping seats and sections under control.

The workflow

Class signup forms are simple until one section overfills. FormGuard helps schools, coaches, and trainers keep each class option within capacity.

You can keep the form in Google Forms and add FormGuard only for the controls Google Forms does not handle well by itself.

Create the class signup form: Collect student details and class preferences.
Set section quotas: Limit each class, cohort, or time option.
Set total response limit: Use this if the whole program has a cap.
Add waitlist instructions: Tell students what happens when a class is full.
Verify with test submissions: Confirm quotas before publishing the form.
