I would still also love to see this come to reality for the SLM - communication proves to be especially difficult with some graduating seniors (more so those who are entered manually due to school selected scholarships for funds we host). It is difficult to get a quick response through email in the summer months. To be able to send a message via text to students would be super helpful (and save my personal cell phone from having to do it). If there is any more movement on this, we'd love to know about it.

We've built this into our award acceptance & follow-up form, and provide clear guidelines for the expectation of what should be submitted (including who it's addressed to, what information to include, proper greeting and closing, etc.). Then we include an upload field - encouraging them to complete their letter within a .doc or .pdf format and then uploading it (to help ensure good formatting and grammar/spell check capabilities to minimize errors). That way we're also able to download and print them to share with donors easily. If what we've asked isn't initially received, the form is marked incomplete until the items to be adjusted or that are missing are included in the form. It helps us to maintain accountability with the recipient for the scholarship award. I understand this may be adjusted on a case by case basis depending on the nature of the scholarship/award. We build the 'follow-up form' on the information we need to ensure integrity in each process. I'd think you could edit the "follow-up" to be just the guidelines and either field or upload for them to include the thank you letter if that is all you need. (It would at least help you in the short term until another solution comes available.)

Thank you for the idea.
Would you hope this is implemented across all processes?

I would also like to be able to reorder scholarship opportunities in the UA like I was able to do with individual processes. As I have further new scholarships in development, for my organizational purposes I'd like to be able to incorporate them in the opportunity list where they fall and not just have to add them to the end of the list. Just "alpha order" doesn't work since it will only grab the first letter of the opportunity name to use in ordering them.
