One link per class or form. Students, parents and applicants upload without an account, and every file lands in your school’s Drive — with 20% off for schools.
Trusted by 300,000+ users, including universities and schools.
Problem
Submissions arrive by email, chat and USB stick, and each one has to be renamed and saved by hand.
Google Forms and shared folders ask for a Google sign-in that many students and parents don’t have.
Permission slips and enrollment papers get lost between backpacks and the office, and someone has to chase them.
How it works
One uploader per class, assignment or school form, each with its own folder.
Post it in your LMS, email it to parents or print the QR code on a worksheet.
Every file lands in the right folder, named by student, and form answers go to Google Sheets.
Set up your first class in two minutes.
Submissions can start arriving today.
Use cases
Students hand in essays, presentations, photos and videos of any size, sorted by class and student.
Parents and applicants upload IDs, transcripts and enrollment forms without creating an account.
Parents send signed permission slips and consent forms from their phone.
Applicants submit essays, transcripts and recommendation letters in one form.
Students submit theses, portfolios and large video projects before the deadline.
How students and parents send files
Post the link in Google Classroom, Canvas, Moodle or your school app. Students upload without an account.
Give each class or the admissions office its own address. Attachments from parents land in the right folder.
Embed admission or enrollment forms on your website, with your school’s logo and colors.
Custom forms
Ask for student and parent details and the class or program, and list the documents to attach. Works as an admission, enrollment, scholarship or permission slip form.
Organized in Google Drive
Submissions are sorted by class, assignment and student, based on the answers in your form.
Know the moment a student submits, so you can see who’s still missing before the deadline.
Route files into your school’s Shared Drive so teachers and the admissions office have access.
Automatic processing
DriveUploader logs every file with the student’s name and upload time, and AI reads forms and documents into the columns you define. Grading stays with teachers.

See full pricingDriveUploader is an assignment submission and form collection tool for schools and universities. Students, parents and applicants upload assignments, permission slips, enrollment documents and applications through a link or QR code, without creating an account. Every file is saved to your school’s Google Drive, sorted by class and student.
Yes. Schools and universities get 20% off DriveUploader plans. Contact us to apply the discount to your account.
No. Unlike Google Forms file upload questions or Google Classroom, DriveUploader doesn’t ask anyone to sign in. Students and parents open the link on any device and upload their files, which makes it work for younger students and for parents outside your school’s domain.
Not a replacement. Google Classroom manages courses, assignments and grades. DriveUploader collects files where Classroom doesn’t fit: from parents and applicants without a school account, from students sending large videos or portfolios, and for admission and enrollment forms. Many schools post DriveUploader links right inside Classroom.
Yes, with no file size limit on any plan; files only need to fit into your school’s Google Drive storage. Students can upload videos, presentations, portfolios and whole folders, so you can receive large files without email limits. Google’s own limits are 750 GB of uploads per account a day and 5 TB per file, enough for a whole class of video projects.
Yes. Create a permission slip form with the student’s name, the activity and a consent checkbox, and let parents upload a signed slip if your school requires one. Every response is saved to Google Sheets and every file to the class folder. DriveUploader doesn’t provide e-signatures, so check which form of consent your school accepts.
Yes. Every upload is logged in Google Sheets with the student’s name and time, so you can compare it with your class list and see who is missing before the deadline.
Uploads go straight to your school’s Google Drive and no copies are stored on our servers. Students and parents can only upload, never see other students’ files. You can close each uploader after the deadline or protect it with a password. Files are encrypted in transit, and our Data Processing Agreement is part of our Terms and covers every account.
No. Document AI can log documents and read forms into Google Sheets, for example the assignment title, page count or the details from an enrollment form. Grading and feedback always stay with teachers.
You can start for free. Free uploaders stay open for 24 hours. For permanent links per class or form, plans start at $5.99/month, and schools get 20% off; custom forms such as enrollment forms need the Pro plan. AI processing uses credits, starting at $9 for 100 documents. With the Team plan, your whole school manages uploaders in one workspace.
Create your first class uploader in 2 minutes. Students and parents won’t need an account.
