An effortless process for awarding bursaries.
An end-to-end system for independent schools: applications in, evidence attached, eligibility calculated against your criteria, and outcomes sent from the same place. Next year’s renewals are handled too.
Emma: 6 families have evidence outstanding. Reminders drafted for your OK.
The most sensitive file in the school, run on envelopes.
Financial disclosures on a desk, criteria that live in precedent, and a round too confidential to delegate. Every award defensible only as far as memory reaches.
Three awards with no record of why. The bursar who set the weighting left in July.
ILLUSTRATIVE · THE ROUND BEFORE BURSARY+
Award bursaries quicker than ever.
A calculator set to your parameters.
The Bursary+ algorithm runs on the criteria and weighting your school chooses - so awards reflect your policy, not a supplier’s idea of one.
