Important Things to Remember:
* Do not use your SEP student email address for your profile. We need to be able to contact you after graduation.
* Check your email! And, be sure to check your junk email box.
* Be as complete as possible with your profile. This will lead to more scholarship opportunities.
* Recommended essay length is 200-300 words. We are looking for quality, not quantity.
* Scholarship decision committees receive multiple anonymous applications to review. So, please BE THOROUGH in your responses, extra questions and essays-they are read!
* When you are done with your profile and you match to scholarships, click "APPLY TO ALL" above the list of scholarships available to you.
* CHECK BACK AND "APPLY TO ALL" BEFORE THE APPLICATION DEADLINE.
