| { Completed Application Form } |
- Follow directions! If the instructions say “use black ink,” then use black ink!
- Answer all questions. An incomplete application normally will be disqualified.
- For scholarships that fund graduate school or semesters at an international university, indicate the specific program you hope to attend. Work closely with the resident faculty advisor for the scholarship to insure not only that the specific academic program meets your goals, but also that you meet its admission criteria and that it is eligible for scholarship funding.
- Be honest and don’t over-state your credentials. Remember, a good application may result in a face-to-face interview. If your application claims, “Fluent in German,” don’t be surprised if a scholarship interviewer asks you questions in German!
- The Type-Writer Challenge. A few prestigious scholarships still require typed applications, a real challenge for students who’ve never actually touched a type-writer. Fear not: if you need to submit a typed form (that cannot be downloaded and prepared on a computer) a member of the college’s secretarial staff will be made available to assist you.
