The following are important tips for successfully submitting scholarship applications:

• Make a few copies of the application so you have extras in case you make mistakes (they always seem to happen when you don't have extra copies!)
• Give yourself plenty of time - mail applications 1 week prior to the application deadline if possible
• Read directions CAREFULLY and always follow these directions. If in doubt, contact the sponsor to request clarification.
• ALWAYS submit a COMPLETE application packet.
• If you are missing any required documents in the application packet you can assume that your application will not be considered.
• Double-check your entire packet prior to sending.
• Make a copy of your complete application packet for your files.
