Administrators

Scholarships and matching

Connect scholarships to the forms students complete and make eligibility clear.

1Create an opportunity

  1. Set the scholarship name, description, eligibility, award amount, recipient slots, and closing date.
  2. Select the application form or forms accepted for that scholarship. Save and check the displayed requirements.
  3. Configure subject and major matching, and whether matching applications are accepted automatically.

2Offer optional scholarships

  1. In the application form, connect an additional scholarship when students should opt in.
  2. Use a named checkbox with a description or requirements for a simple choice.
  3. Use an optional supplemental section for extra essays or questions. Explain that students may skip it and check the requirements for being considered.

3Check a missing assignment

  1. Confirm the student submitted the correct form and the scholarship accepts it.
  2. Check the deadline, cycle state, eligibility, automatic matching setting, and remaining award slots.
  3. Use applicant assignment controls when an administrator needs to place a submitted application into an appropriate scholarship.
