Before designing the application, user research was conducted among students, revealing key insights:

Students seek a reliable platform for accurate scholarship information.
Deadline conflicts with academic schedules result in missed opportunities, emphasizing the need for improved deadline coordination.
Students prefer scholarships with specific eligibility criteria for better chances of success and clarity in decision-making.

This user research serves as the foundational step, guiding the application design and building user personas.
