Microsoft Forms allows you to quickly create polls, quizzes, and surveys. Data is compiled in real-time and can be exported directly into a spreadsheet for analysis.

Getting Started

Create a Form

The Evergreen Form Template

When conducting official college business, always use the Evergreen-approved template. This ensures the security of sensitive data (like user emails) and helps respondents verify that the form is an official college document.

IMPORTANT: Start with the template first. You cannot apply Evergreen branding to an existing form later. If you’ve already started a form, you will need to copy and paste your questions into a new one created from the template.

Quick Start Guide

1. Access the Template: Please submit a technology support request to receive the link.
2. Create Your Copy: Click the More Options (...) icon on the template tile and select Copy. This creates a duplicate for your own use.
3. Personalize: Open your duplicate and rename it to match your project.
4. Build & Share: Add your questions and adjust branching logic. Once ready, you can share via:

• Direct Link
• Email Invitation
• QR Code

Linked Spreadsheets

If you link a form with a spreadsheet to gather results do not modify the spreadsheet. Changing spreadsheet columns and rows can cause a disconnect and you will not have accurate responses.

Forms from Microsoft Lists

If you are managing data within Microsoft Lists, you can create a form directly from the list to streamline data entry.
