Over 2.000,000 people across the world have used SmarterSelect to create, manage, analyze, apply for, and evaluate online applications. Whatever the size of your organization, and whether you’re a private foundation, community foundation, association, educational institution, or corporation, SmarterSelect has solutions that will meet your online application management needs.
SmarterSelect was started in 2007, when our founder’s daughter was applying for scholarships. He observed that most organizations were using either paper, such as her large university, or home-grown, minimal web forms that were very expensive to create and maintain. With the introduction of cloud computing, the idea of a cost-effective, feature-rich, hosted application management solution was born.
We are, first and foremost, a service company. We don’t sell technology. We help our clients achieve their goals and satisfaction by serving them with outstanding customer support coupled with our deep understanding of online applications.
SmarterSelect is self-funded, profitable, and slowly taking over the world of online applications. Our team works hard to make products people love to use. Our in-house support staff sits on the front lines, helping customers solve problems and make the most of their online applications. And, our product management and engineering teams are constantly innovating, collaborating, fixing things, and keeping the wheels turning.

“The few things I like best about SmarterSelect is the ability to create, link and launch applications easily, manage multiple programs with various deadlines throughout the year, and the capability to bulk email applicants, evaluators and recommendations with a just a couple clicks. What use to take a week to organize with paper applications now takes half a day.”
