FA: Online Distributed Scholarship Posting

Quick View
Summary: 

The scholarships office (part of Student Financial Assistance Office) currently processes departmental and foundation scholarships by receiving paper Scholarship Award Authorization (SAA) forms that have been signed by departmental representatives. These are then reviewed one-by-one by scholarship staff and manually posted. This modification would allow departmental staff members to enter these awards themselves, have them approved by the appropriate departmental business managers and deans, and then posted in batch as financial aid awards.
