Toward the end of February, the scholarship team will send you a Supplemental Application Information Form that you must complete and submit by Monday, March 14th. FAFSA and SAR documentation is also due by March 14th. 

Beginning in May, the scholarship committee will review the applications. With 705 applicants, this committee has the difficult task of determining how to distribute the scholarships.
