The new scholarship system is for internal use but there is a section that the students would be able to interface with.

Story

The scholarship application process was not the most convineient thing to do in the past. Together with the new scholarship system we designed a section for the students so they could check their scholarship history and modify the scholarship contract if they needed.

This section of the system is very different from the rest of the system because it was made just for the students. We took care to make it responsive and able to work on any screen. The rest of the system doesn't have this functionality due to the interal uses it was being created for. I supplied the Dev team with how we might treat the large tables of information on smaller screens. The student would be able to check up on their current scholarships and view their history of scholarship since they began.

As the rest of the system was being developed we built a demo with UXPin and had students test out scenarios and give feedback on this new scholarship history feature we were adding to the system. The experience was very insiteful and enjoyable. Another detail we wanted to address is the thank you letter. This used to be done all manually. The students will now be able to write and submit their thank yous to their respective donors with out having to make an extra trip to the post office or the admin building.
