  1. It would be helpful for SLM to include a spelling/grammar check tool within the scholarship applications for students to use when writing their essays or short answer responses. I know that some internet browsers have a spell check included, but it might be helpful from the student side to have a more comprehensive tool to help with spelling, grammar, etc. as they write their responses.

  2. We have long project names for our applications and an automatically generated request ID (example 20240041) that includes the year, would be helpful to identify and search for a specific request, without needing to remember the project name or organization name.

  3. At BACF we have 11 different committees that review applications based on their funding alignment. Our current process is running a universal application. We then create individual processes for each of our committees, and manually copy applications into the processes for the committees that will review it. For example, we may get a funding request from the American Red Cross that has funding alignment across 3 different committees. I would then manually copy that request into each of the three processes for those committees to review.

    Where this becomes cumbersome is that I have to go into each application individually…

  4. Create a "group by student" button similar to the one for evaluators that allows administrators to group by student in the dashboard buckets.

  5. Would it be possible to add a drop down for students wheen filling out personal information. ie Mr., Ms. and that when a student types street or St. it would auto change to Street? this would save us so much time in making corrections.

  6. Create a way to export processes from a universe without having to individually create them in the process tab? Like, if you have a universe full of application opportunities, you would have the ability to move each application opportunity to an individual process by copying every process into its own. This would then move all eligibility requirements, application, evaluation, and follow ups to the new process. Then in each process, you are able to edit out the eligibility requirements that are no longer needed.

  7. A popup or alert system to add notes on the request and organization side for evaluators would be helpful.

  8. It would be more efficient if UA scholarship installments could be approved from the Related Opportunities tab rather than having to click into each opportunity separately and navigate to the award details tab.

  9. I'd love for students to be able to see a color coded progress bar on their full submission, similar to the evaluator's progress bar. I have so many students who do not submit the additional applications they are eligible for because they think their application is complete. Since the Universal Processes show up on their page random/alphabetical, they do not see the "Assigned/Edit" and "Submitted/View" which I am trying to explain in emails to both counselors and students.

  11. Once the student hits submit on the UA, is there a way to change the font color of those opportunities that have additional information pending. Currently everything is black or blue, would like to change the "EDIT APPLICATION" to RED to catch the students eye.

  12. For SLM Universal Application follow ups it would be great to be able to reorganize the list, in alpha order for example. Right now it is in the order of when the follow ups were created.

  13. Our evaluations are done by student and if I need to edit evaluations assignments in the Evaluation Assigned bucket, it's very hard to ensure all of a student's opportunities are assigned to the same evaluator when I have to assign by opportunity instead of by student. This is still not possible with the new update if a student has already been assigned to evaluators. This is the message that is received: One or more selected request(s) has an evaluation already assigned. If they are in the assigned bucket then of course they will already have evaluators assigned to them so…

  14. One master login and password for any applicant. We are part of a RAG. Most use Foundant. It would be great if the applicants could log in once to get to all grant makers. One more step to a single application.

  15. When reviewing opportunities in UA, it would be helpful to have the award decision and award amount noted on the "Related Opportunities" tab, rather than having to click into each opportunity and navigate to the award details or decision sections.

  17. We have about 60 scholarships, 200 applicants (1,100 applications), and 32 reviewers every year. When I assign applications for review, I want every student to be assigned to 2 reviewers. And I want all reviewers to have roughly the same number of applicants/students (not applications since we use Universal App). So I sort the applications by applicant name, and then manually click all applications for students x, y, z, and then batch assign to 2 reviewers. I have to repeat this process for all 1,100 applications in the system. I would love for there to be an automated way to…

  18. I need there to be a way to mass update opportunities in a universe. Going in one at a time to 150+ scholarship names to change it from 2023 to 2024 is maddening and not an effective use of time.

  19. It would be helpful to have more than 2 evaluation options for Universal Applications. Scholarship Opportunities vary vastly in what is important. Being able to have the Internal Evaluation and a choice of either the complex or simple evaluation form for the 2nd choice would be most helpful!

  20. In the UA, it would be nice if we could print a pdf of individual opportunities for the donor(s) to review that only has the eligibility questions and supplemental questions of the individual opportunity listed.
