google-forms
Hopefully this isn't confusing.
I'm wondering if there's a way of using a preset email address instead of collecting users email addresses in a form. Essentially, I'm looking for all the form responses to get sent to one email address which can then be forwarded to a specific place when needed.
Not sure if the prefilled URL will do this or not.
NOTE:
Google Forms and the below referred help article were updated.
Original answer:
From View and manage form responses
Record the email addresses from people who fill out your form. When someone takes your survey, they will be required to enter their email address before they submit the form.
If you use a Google account through work or school, respondents will see a message at the top explaining that their username will be collected automatically.
- Open a form in Google Forms.
- In the top right, click Settings
.
- Check the box next to "Collect email address."
Once the response is submitted it's stored and there isn't a way to avoid this. By the other side, it's not possible to delete individual responses on the responses container bounded to the Google Form.
At this time Google Forms responses are stored in the Google form file and optionally could be set to automatically send them to a Google spreadsheet by using a built-in feature.
It's worth to say that Google Forms also could be used as a script container and that it have the event on form submit that could be used to do some things with the submitted responses like to discriminate which responses should be sent to a Google spreadsheet, but not for delete individual responses from the responses container bounded to the Google form file.
As was already mentioned in a comment to the question by Canadian Luke, relying on students typing their ID in a Google Form and automatically discriminating their responses based on it could cause "problems". One way to minimize this is to send to each student the URL to a pre-filled Google Form with their ID already filled up.

Yes, you can use the get a pre-filled link option for this, provided you create your own question asking for the email address instead of the google made one.
You can even turn on data validation for your created question to make them type in a valid looking address.
