statement of eligibility.
• Choose a referee that can provide relevant details about you and the types of ac�vi�es that
you have par�cipated in. These details and ac�vi�es should be related to the criteria of the
scholarships that you are applying for.
• Let your referee know the type of scholarships you are applying for. For example,
scholarships based on leadership, volunteer involvement etc.
The informa�on included should complement/support the scholarship ques�ons and answers.
