Better University Field Sanitising #120

@RedbackThomson

Description

@RedbackThomson

The ability for the system to automatically sanitise the university field when the user applies would save time for the organisers who did it by hand. Using the data from this year's information, we can come up with comprehensive dictionaries for every spelling for each of the universities.

Example

User applies with the university UC Berkeley
System compares it to a dictionary of school names
System changes UC Berkeley to The University of California, Berkeley

Notes
It might be helpful for administrators to be able to change these dictionaries from the website, without having to push code changes.
