Bursary Applications Management System

All bursary managers agree on one thing: Managing bursary applications can be an absolute headache, especially if bursary managers receive thousands of applications for a single bursary call. This can be more daunting if applications are being collected manually through word documents, pdfs, or unstructured online forms. That is exactly why we created our Aura Applications Management System, to simplify the application process. Aura AMS is our web-based mobile-friendly platform that allows bursary candidates to digitally apply for bursary opportunities in a seamless manner while empowering bursary managers to, easily and quickly, assess their applicant pool. Furthermore, the Aura dashboard provides valuable data analytics that allows bursary managers to get immediate and dynamic insights on the progress of the bursary call. Below is a list of some of the value-adding features you can expect on Aura. Contact us here if you would like to experience your first headache-free bursary application call.
