Manual Apply

Administrators can manually apply applicants to scholarships.

Note: By manually applying an applicant to a scholarship, any qualifications and additional requirement questions attached to the scholarship are overridden or bypassed. The applicant will therefore not be required to complete any additional requirement questions outlined on the scholarship, and they will still be included in the list of applicants seen by reviewers (unless they are marked as Denied by an administrator in advance). This action is permanent; once an applicant has been manually applied to a scholarship, they will remain on the applicants list and cannot be removed.

To manually apply an applicant, go to People > Users, locate the applicant's account, and click to open it.

The Users page with the People menu expanded and its Users item highlighted in the left navigation.

Click the Awarding tab on their account page. Find the scholarship the applicant needs to be applied for (use Search scholarships if the list is long) and click Apply.

A confirmation dialog appears, warning that this action is permanent and cannot be undone. Click Apply in the dialog to proceed.

To apply the student to a scholarship from a past cycle, click the card for the past award cycle (for example, FY2025) at the top of the Awarding tab first, then repeat the steps above.
