Additional Hints
Read scholarship descriptions carefully – you won’t qualify for all of them.
 

Check deadlines on all applications – make sure your application will arrive at the final destination before the deadline.

Follow the application instructions; read instructions again when putting the application together to be sure you have everything. Not doing so will cost you a scholarship.

Rotary Application – be sure to check which scholarship(s) you are applying for. They will throw it away if you don’t.

Ask for recommendation letters several weeks before the deadline. Be polite and appreciative, these letters are very time consuming. Be sure to send a thank you.
