🎓 ScholarTrack — An AI-Powered Scholarship Management Dashboard

This is a submission for the Runner H "AI Agent Prompting" Challenge

What I Built

ScholarTrack is an end-to-end AI-integrated platform that allows students to discover, apply for, and manage scholarship opportunities automatically. It leverages Runner H as an autonomous agent that finds scholarships and submits them directly into a fully functional web dashboard built with Bolt and Supabase.

This project streamlines the time-consuming and often overwhelming process of scholarship searching and tracking by delegating it to an AI agent, while providing students with a modern, mobile-friendly dashboard to manage their applications.

Profile Dashboard

How I Used Runner H

Runner H acts as the autonomous AI agent that:

  1. Finds fully-funded scholarships tailored to a student's background
  2. Fills in application details like title, link, deadline, and notes
  3. Sends the data via a POST request to the backend API: https://<SUPABASE_URL>/functions/v1/applications
  4. Can call /applications/summary to generate weekly reports

Example prompt to Runner H:

“Use this student profile to find 3 international scholarships. Apply on their behalf and submit the application details (title, link, deadline, status) to the provided API endpoint.”

The Supabase function is protected with an Authorization header and properly structured to accept Runner H’s submission.

Use Case & Impact

🎯 Use Case

  • Target Audience: University students, especially in Africa and emerging markets

Managing scholarships for international students can be complex, involving multiple deadlines, eligibility criteria, and documentation requirements. An AI-powered solution like ScholarTrack is designed to simplify and streamline this process for both students and institutions.

  1. Centralized Scholarship Database
    ScholarTrack aggregates scholarship opportunities from various sources into a single, searchable platform. This allows students to easily explore options based on criteria such as country, field of study, academic level, and financial need.

  2. Personalized Matching System
    Using AI algorithms, the platform analyzes student profiles—academic performance, interests, and eligibility factors—to recommend relevant scholarships. This reduces the time spent searching and increases the likelihood of finding suitable opportunities.

  3. Deadline Tracking and Alerts
    One of the biggest challenges in applying for scholarships is keeping track of deadlines. ScholarTrack provides automated reminders and a visual timeline, helping students stay organized and avoid missed opportunities.

  4. Application Management Tools
    Students can manage documents, track application status, and monitor progress through a single dashboard. This improves efficiency, especially for those applying to multiple scholarships simultaneously.

  5. Insights and Analytics
    The platform can offer insights such as success rates, common application requirements, and trends in scholarships for international students. These data-driven features help users make more informed decisions.

  6. Collaboration Features
    Teachers, counselors, and students can collaborate within the platform. Educators can guide students through the application process, review materials, and provide feedback.

  7. Accessibility and User Experience
    A well-designed interface ensures that students from diverse backgrounds can navigate the platform easily, regardless of their familiarity with technology.

  8. Integration with School Systems
    In educational environments like One World International School (OWIS), such a dashboard could integrate with existing academic systems, allowing counselors to better support students in planning their higher education pathways.

Overall, an AI-powered scholarship management dashboard like ScholarTrack addresses key challenges in accessing and managing scholarships for international students by improving organization, personalization, and efficiency.

I recently came across ScholarTrack, an AI-powered scholarship management dashboard, and it’s a game-changer for students seeking financial support. What I love about it is how it streamlines the entire process—matching students with relevant opportunities, tracking application deadlines, and even providing insights on improving your chances of success.

For international students, finding the right funding can be especially challenging. Platforms like ScholarTrack make it easier to discover scholarships for international students that align with their academic profile, field of study, and financial needs. This not only saves time but also increases the chances of securing fully or partially funded programs.

With AI tools like this, navigating the complex world of scholarships becomes much more manageable, allowing students to focus on preparing strong applications and excelling academically. It’s exciting to see technology making higher education more accessible globally!
