Use award mode

Note: Are you interested in previewing our enhanced Applicant Centric Awarding experience? Join our Early Adopter Program (EAP) to experience our enhanced feature and share your feedback.

Use Award Mode (also known as Applicant Centric Awarding) when you want to:

  • Speed up your awarding process

  • Focus on individual award recipients (instead of each opportunity)

Note: An enhanced Award mode is available with limited availability. If all goes well based on feedback from the first clients who use the enhanced Award mode, expect its wider release in a future update.

  1. Go to Opportunity, Applicants (or any applications grid).

  2. To streamline awarding, filter your grid or select a saved grid view to ensure you have the correct students you want to award. For more guidance on system grids, see Applicant centric awarding grid actions.

  3. At the top right, select Award Mode.

  4. For each applicant, use opportunity information to make awarding decisions:

    • Select Filters to adjust which opportunities are shown on the page. For example, you can select and filter on multiple scopes.

    • Select each opportunity to see more details.

    • Select application category and update for each opportunity as needed.

      Tip: To include imported information on each applicant record, system admins can go to Site, Settings, User Imports and choose information under Applicant Centric Awarding. See Work with user imports for additional information.

  5. Select Update application.

    6. Note: Update application only saves your decision in the grid; it does not update the application or trigger any award effects.

  6. Select Apply changes to update the application and trigger the award effects.
