Reference Letters

As for letters of reference: 

SCHOOL: Students are only required to get the signature of teachers willing to be a reference. Teachers are not required to write reference letters at time of application submission.

EXTERNAL: Students should provide the individuals they have asked to support them with the necessary information regarding their studies and their activities, with special requirements of the scholarship and with those examples of social involvement that make them the ideal candidate for an award. A point form summary of what you want mentioned is very helpful to the writer of any reference letter.

!!!  Be aware that a proper reference letter can take up up a week to write. !!!
It is best to give the writer at least a weeks notice to complete the letter.
