Application through alumni outcomes — with private AI that reads transcripts and aid letters, payments handled start to finish, and one flat price that includes custom development.
And you don't set it up — we do. Send us your current application and files; your program arrives ready to run.
Students do better in college when their champions — high school staff, scholarship staff, family members — stay involved along the way. Grad Champion was built from the ground up to make sure that support is always present.
The AI pre-screen your reviewers see for every applicant — shown with demo data.
Grad Champion follows every scholar on one continuous record — no juggling an intake tool, a spreadsheet, and a payments workaround.
Your staff shouldn't spend March retyping numbers out of PDFs. Grad Champion's AI reads college transcripts and financial aid award letters, pulls out GPAs and aid packages, computes each scholar's unmet need, and flags what needs a human.
And it's private: your documents stay in your program's own workspace and are never used to train AI models.
We've found no other platform that does this.
Built-in email and text messaging, in English and Spanish. Custom surveys, automated reminders tied to each scholar's outstanding tasks, and renewal checklists that walk scholars through what's due each year.
Persistence work happens on schedule, not when someone remembers.
Grad Champion tracks the money on the same record as the scholar — approvals, disbursement to the college, and confirmation the funds arrived — with options for payment automation and reconciliation, and board-ready financial reports.
Built for foundations that pay colleges, not just people.

Flat annual fee. We build your program for you at no setup charge — no per-seat reviewer fees, no surprise add-on costs — less than the cost of one part-time coordinator.

Comparable enterprise builds typically run $200K+ in year one before a single scholar logs in. New integrations exceeding ~$1,000/year in direct third-party costs may involve cost-sharing.
Scholarship files hold some of the most sensitive information a family ever shares. Grad Champion treats them that way.
The AI reads your documents inside your program's own workspace. Nothing is shared, sold, or used to train AI models.
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and documents are stored in private, access-controlled storage.
Access is limited to the people you authorize — and scholars see only their own record.
Complete exports of every record, any time. No lock-in, no hostage data.
The Grad Champion team has over 15 years of experience leading college access and college scholarship work, with more than $15M in scholarship disbursements over that time.
Grad Champion runs a real, live scholarship program today — intake, review, awarding, aid verification, payments, and multi-year persistence tracking. We built the platform we always wished existed, and we adapt it to your program, not the other way around.
