We've generated default email templates to utilize during your awarding process. However, they can be customized to fit your needs. Let's learn how!
As you select the Emails tab, you'll automatically be taken to the Templates subtab.
You'll notice two default templates:
Default Award Notification
Default Denial Notification
Once you click into a template you can begin customizing it. The example below is for the Award template.
Template Name field:

You'll generally want to avoid referencing any scholarship-specific details here, since the template will be used globally. However, in case you do want to create individual/scholarship specific award templates, click here to learn how.
