Application Materials Needed:
- Completed application form. Applications can be completed electronically through Google forms or by printing out and mailing the PDF form. Please do not submit both an electronic and paper copy.
- A copy of your most recent complete academic school year’s transcript. This can be included in your application and does not need to be mailed separately by your school or university.

For example: A college freshman would submit a senior year high school transcript and can include an unofficial copy of the fall semester transcript as well. A college sophomore would only need to send a copy of their freshman year transcript.
