TIPS
SUGGESTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE CCCF SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION
Remember! Your scholarship application represents YOU.
Give your application the time, attention, and preparation that you and it deserve.
Read and follow the instructions carefully. If you have questions, call the CCCF office at 574-722-2200.
Type or print neatly. Please use ink, not pencil, for any hand-written materials.
Allow plenty of time to gather the required materials. Give sufficient advance notice when you are requesting letters of recommendation, grade transcripts, etc.
Proofread your work – especially your essay, if one is requested. Check the spelling. Check the grammar. You may even wish to have a friend or a teacher proofread your completed application.
Be honest and be yourself.
If you are asked to talk about yourself, don’t be afraid to highlight your strengths. Be truthful without being boastful.
Make certain the persons you ask to prepare letters of recommendation know you well.
Watch deadlines – if your application is late, it will be rejected.
