4) Answers are typed in the gray box. The box will expand as you tye, especially for essay questions.

5) Use numeric entries for dates.

6) Round costs to nearest dollar.

7) Some questions have a drop-down containing other possible answers. Click on the word to choose your answer.

8) The best way to save your work on your computer. Click on the back arrow in the upper left corner. To save your work, whether the application is completed or not, select "YES". Name the document and where it is to be stored on your computer. The screen will then go back to the scholarship page.
