Important Things to Remember
- Don’t wait until the last minute to apply. Many scholarships require essays, recommendation letters and/or references. These things take time.
- When asking for recommendation letters, please give the person 2-3 weeks to get this done.
- If listing a person as a reference, please contact them first and ask permission to use their name, address and phone number.
- Always type your application. There is a typewriter in the guidance office and library.
