Case Study: Colorado State University achieves unified scholarship management with AcademicWorks

Colorado State University - Customer Case Study

Colorado State University faced major challenges with its in-house scholarship system, which supported more than 1,400 scholarship opportunities across eight colleges and several campus departments but required heavy IT support to maintain. The old process also made it difficult to promote scholarships effectively, leaving many students unaware of available awards and donors.

AcademicWorks implemented a campus-wide scholarship management solution that was completed in six months, in time for CSU’s 2015 scholarship cycle. With AcademicWorks, CSU gained real-time visibility into awarding activity, improved campus communication, and a single unified system for managing scholarship information. The platform also increased donor awareness and gave administrators flexible control over applications, timelines, and post-award processes for each fund.
