A AcademicWorks Case Study
Allegany College of Maryland, which serves campuses in Maryland and Pennsylvania, needed to replace its in-house scholarship system that relied on paper applications and manual eligibility review. Before working with AcademicWorks, staff processed nearly 6,000 scholarship applications this way, creating a slow and labor-intensive process for students, reviewers, and administrators.
AcademicWorks implemented its scholarship management solution in September 2012, with Development and IT teams involved, and the rollout was faster and easier than expected. The college reported huge time savings, much quicker application processing, and overwhelmingly positive feedback from applicants and reviewers, especially for the system’s student-friendly design. Allegany College of Maryland also praised AcademicWorks’ customer service as exceptional.
