Mnemonic

申し込み moushikomi — the noun form of 申す (to say humbly) + 込む (to put in). Literally "putting in one's word" — formally submitting one's intent to join or contract — an application. Both parts are kun-yomi, a native compound. The verb form is 申し込む. Same verb-compound pattern as K-67's 受付 — a 申し込み is received at 受付.
