Scholarship administration shouldn't live in an inbox.
Scholarship teams often manage academic records, enrollment confirmations, funding requirements, and scholar communication through email, spreadsheets, and manual follow-ups.
Manual tracking
Teams maintain spreadsheets just to determine which scholars have completed their requirements.
Repeated follow-ups
Administrators spend hours chasing missing documents and approaching deadlines.
Limited visibility
There is no real-time view of scholar compliance across programs, institutions, or countries.
One system. One source of truth.
From scholar requirements to funding readiness.
A repeating operational cycle, not a pile of attachments.

Sensitive scholar information deserves serious protection.
Academic records, enrollment documents and family contacts require more than ordinary file sharing. SponsorDesk is built to protect them, and to handle them in line with Canada's privacy law, PIPEDA.
Encrypted everywhere
HTTPS for every connection; documents encrypted at rest with AES-256.
Multi-factor sign-in for staff
Staff accounts cannot be used without a second factor.
Private documents
Files are never public. Every download is checked against the viewer's role.
Organizations kept apart
Each sponsor sees only its own scholars, never another's.
Role-based permissions
What staff can change, approve and export depends on their role.
Audit trail
Sign-ins, approvals, submissions and reviews are recorded with who and when.
Lean spreadsheet exports
The scholar list CSV carries status, not contact details or documents.
Your data stays yours
Never sold, never used for advertising or to train AI models.
Privacy
Built for PIPEDA
Hosted on Amazon Web Services. A named Privacy Officer is accountable for how scholar data is handled.
- Collected only for the scholarship, with clear notice to scholars
- Access and correction requests answered within 30 days
- Breaches reported to the Privacy Commissioner and affected people
- Data returned or deleted within 90 days when an organization leaves
Know exactly where your program stands.
Compliance, enrollment, and funding-readiness reporting without assembling another spreadsheet.
