Admission Requirements widget

The KU Admission Requirements widget will display interactive entry requirements for your school or the entire university on your site with a single line of code. This information is maintained by University Relations and Admissions, and should always be current.

A basic example of the embedded widget looks like this:

To include the widget on your site, you will need to use SSI, have KU's "contained" version of JQuery turned on (it's on by default), and be on a central KU webserver such as www2.ku.edu. The basic code, without any additional settings, should look like this:

<!--#include virtual="/~http/ssi/2009/widgets/myadmissions.shtml" -->

Like most KU widgets, almost every element of the Admission Requirements widget has a CSS class or ID assigned to it, and can therefore be customized to fit the look and feel of your site. However, because this widget uses AJAX and some specific heights and widths to make the "slide" effect work properly, you may need to experiment if you decide to override certain CSS properties to customize the widget's dimensions.

Settings

This widget currently only has one setting, which must be placed on your page above the include statement. You will likely want to add this in your header file.

If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to contact webcomms@ku.edu.
