AwardSpring is the organization that manages the online database for Sisters GRO scholarship application, review and selection. The login site for both students and selection committees is https://sistersgro.awardspring.com/. Detailed instructions about how to register and navigate the site as a reviewer are here.
Refer to your selection committee Chair for specific instructions on how they would like you to score applications.
If you are looking for assistance on how to provide objective scores, you can refer to our Selection Committees page where you will find a scoring rubric and an interview matrix.
Final selections will be submitted by the Chair only.
