| | Create a new blank course. This is useful when you want to automatically import a list of courses from another system into DreamApply. Please note however, that the needed fields for fully configuring an applicable course in DreamApply is quite long, including various settings for admission requirements, intakes, motivation letters, fees and so on. This data is typically not available in other systems, like Student Information Systems, at least not in the required depth. It is therefore recommended to use this API call to import a "basic list" of courses that will be then fine-tuned and fully configured using the dedicated GUI tools in DreamApply built for managing this data effectively. |
| | |
| | The URI for the new course that was created is returned in the ''Location'' header. |
