WiSH is a great tool for managing and reviewing scholarship applications. It is convenient to have a centralized place for all of the applications. Communicating through WiSH with award letters and automatic reminders to students has been extremely helpful. Rachel Margolies (Undergraduate Coordinator, Political Science)
WiSH has helped streamline our department's scholarship processing, especially in the areas of communicating with students and collecting their post-acceptance thank you letters to donors. It's also nice that once an opportunity is created, it is easy to duplicate it for the next year's awarding cycle, which saves a lot of time once the initial set up is completed. Maria Hartwig (Undergraduate Advisor, Psychology)
Seeing all the student data needed to evaluate the candidates and make awards, e.g. EFC, gift need, GPA, etc., in one spreadsheet is really useful and the whole reason I started using the application years ago. Aimee Lefkow (Research Program Manager, Physics)
Transparent and easy to find scholarship information for students & families Awards processed through WiSH go over to UWF Stewardship materials collected through WiSH (easy for students and visible by UWF) Payments and packaging are immediate using awarding feature
