Delivering a Digital Scholarship Applications Funnel via Wix

The Grand Rapids African American Museum & Archives (GRAAMA) required a dedicated application page to collect scholarship application details such as long-form essays, personal details, and a legal digital signature. Basic Wix forms could not handle the complexity or required fields. We were tasked with delivering an enterprise-grade form solution using only the client's existing Wix Premium subscription features.
  • Core Challenge: Successfully configure and integrate Wix's existing premium features to manage a multi-field scholarship application that requires both long-form essay submissions and a legal digital signature.
  • Solution: Strategically implement and configure Wix's advanced native form tools and database connections to create a robust application funnel and optimize the existing platform for non-standard data collection.
  • Outcome: A professional and reusable digital scholarship applications funnel that seamlessly fits the site's design and streamlines the selection process.

Seamless Brand Alignment

The application form was styled to perfectly match GRAAMA's existing color palette, typography, and visual layout. This ensures the form feels professional and trustworthy, maximizing the completion rate.

Long-Term Operational Efficiency & Reusability

When designing websites, we build with long-term client maintenance in mind. This scholarship application page was architected for zero-maintenance reusability. Because we used Wix's native tools, GRAAMA can quickly and simply reactivate the page every year by adjusting the key submission dates and essay prompts, minimizing their future operational costs.

Streamlined Applicant-to-Winner Funnel

This custom-built solution immediately modernized GRAAMA's scholarship program, eliminating manual processing and providing a professional experience for applicants.
Improved Applicant Experience
The professional and clear nature of the application portal encourages complete and high-quality submissions from students.
Automated Data Management
The scholarship committee received all applications in a standardized, organized, and exportable digital format, eliminating the time-consuming process of scanning, categorizing, and manually reviewing paper or email submissions.
