Hi, Like a lot of folks I inherited BAM that was set up long before my time. Each year that I work in the software I come across inconsistencies in the way scholarships were set up, the way they are being reviewed or issues that have arisen due to the BMA and our District system that imports data into BAM. Has anyone gone…
Hi All! Curious if the implementation of multi-factor authentication has been a barrier for anyone else. We have a number of users who are unable to access the site because of MFA. A few examples: 1) We have a program for 9th grade students. Not all of these students have a phone. 2) Many of the students who use our site…
Our university is researching an issue that has been presented with showing a students legal name vs. preferred name in Reviewer Groups. Some feel that it is introducing bias in the review cycle in the event that the student has gone through a name change or requires gender identity protections. Have any other…
Hi! Would anyone mind sharing their best practices for thank you notes? In the past at my institution, everyone handled their own thank you notes.

Our application {{ application.applicant_url }} link is showing up nice and clean, but the one for post acceptance looks questionable and students aren't clicking on it out of phishing concerns. I've tried deleting and…
Are there schools that use Awards Management in there packaging process for financial aid including federal, state and institutional scholarships? Or, is Awards Management used for Endowed/Donor Scholarships mainly?
Our institution will report on booked value, fair market value for two years, budgeted awards, and scholarship criteria. I had hoped to create an attractive report for our donors, but because the fund fields are longer than the word “fund data,” the report is not aligning and creates a huge chore to edit in Adobe Acrobat…
Many of our FA packages include an institutional commitment amount that is later replaced with scholarship funds. In the initial FA package, this amount displays to the student as “College Grant.” (Essentially, it is displaying as a single awarded “scholarship” with a note that all or part of this amount may later be…
