A AcademicWorks Case Study
Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College (WITC), a 4-campus college in Shell Lake, Wisconsin serving about 4,000 students, was managing scholarships through a highly manual process. The complexity of coordinating across multiple campuses made application and review workflows cumbersome, and the college needed a better, cleaner system; after evaluating several vendors, WITC chose AcademicWorks for its product, service, and fair price.
AcademicWorks implemented an online scholarship management solution and WITC went live in February 2012. The new system simplified applications for students, let applicants update information after submission, and gave reviewers more flexibility by moving the process online. WITC reported a smoother process overall, greater applicant acceptance, and an increase in scholarship applications during the first year with AcademicWorks.
