Track institutional commitment

Use institutional commitment to:

  • Track progress towards an amount promised to applicants (e.g., a financial package promised upon admission)

  • Make sure applicants don't exceed a certain awarded amount (e.g., need-based awards)

Note: This functionality is only available to certain Award Management subscriptions. To learn more about your subscription, visit Site, Settings, Details.

To add institutional commitment to your system:

  1. Add a new field to your import file. For more guidance, see Add new user import data.

  2. Map your new import header to the Institutional Commitment field. For more guidance, see Work with user imports.

  3. On individual portfolios, enable Institutional Commitment:

    • This setting includes funds awarded by this portfolio in the institutional commitment

Once you set up institutional commitment in your system and on individual portfolios, you'll see two new columns on application grids throughout your system:

  • Unmet Institutional Commitment = Institutional Commitment - Encumbered Funds from included Portfolios

  • Met Institutional Commitment = Sum of Encumbered Funds from included Portfolios
