Be sure to get your applications in on time if you are interested-in or planning-to apply for any PMC-administered awards, bursaries or scholarships with October 31 deadlines!
While putting together your application(s) be sure that you…
Review the eligibility criteria…
for each award that you are applying to, individually. Every award is subject to its own requirements and guidelines. You can find these listed on the application form(s) and relevant webpage(s).
Mark your calendar.
It is easy to loose track of application deadline dates, particularly if you plan to apply for more than one. Take a few minutes to mark the deadline for each award in your calendar.
- Pro Tip: Add “mini deadlines” for yourself to complete the different parts of your applications so that when you get to the final deadline all you have to do is compile and submit.
Double check the applications requirements (for each award).
Applications for some awards may include additional components, such as a letter of reference or personal statement. Be sure that your applications includes all the necessary parts (incomplete applications cannot be considered).
- Pro Tip: For applications that include supporting documents take the time to review what the award represents, for example: involvement in the community. Be sure to represent how you meet those criteria (in your supporting documents).
