Last Minute
• Do not wait until the last minute. • Every year the Career Center is crowded with students
completing their applications on the due date which is absolute chaos.
• It becomes very stressful for everyone. • Computers are usually all tied up and may not be
available. • Students often forget that they need the SAR page or IRS
page for certain scholarships.• Don’t get caught in the rush!!
