Tips for applying

• AdmissionAvoid treating this as a separate application. Instead, focus all your effort on your primary admission application to the university, as that is how you are automatically entered for this scholarship.
• StrategyAvoid ignoring the GPA requirement for later years. Instead, build a study plan early in your first semester to ensure you stay above the 3.30 threshold needed for renewal.
• RealismAvoid assuming you will receive this award just because you applied. Instead, remember that while consideration is automatic, an offer of admission does not mean you will be selected for an entrance scholarship.
