Scholarships - How do you handle?

Michelle,

We have been on Tessitura for a long time, and are in the process of an education department redesign / refresh of our use of Tessitura.  I would also like to hear what others are doing in this area.  Particularly things that work really well, or thing that do not work well, that we maybe should avoid.

Subject: [Tessitura Education Forum] Scholarships - How do you handle?

Hi everyone

We're just getting started with tuition payments for a single class for our Education department.  We were expecting straight forward payments but that's not been the case. Several students were awarded scholarships to attend the 20 week course and I'm wondering what's the best practice for handling these as we still need to track students bio data, etc.

Also, payment plans.  Does anyone have any information they could share in how this works best in Tessitura?  We were not planning on invoicing but simply applying payments to a reserved on paid order. 

These methods are a bit of a bandaid until we can get the education department fully on board.  We're a new PAC going into our third season so lots of learning to do!!

All information and assistance is much appreciated!!!

Michelle
