All applications must include at least two recommendations from people not related to the applicant but who know him or her well. Ideal candidates might include faculty members, high school teachers, coaches, advisors, and employers. The more they know about the student and his or her successes, circumstances, and/or the challenges he or she has met – the better recommendation they will be able to provide.
Some scholarships may require recommendations from specific people. Any additional requirements are listed as additional application requirements in the scholarship guide, available on the LC Financial Aid website and office.
Completed recommendation forms must be mailed, faxed, or emailed directly to the LC Admissions Office by the student’s references.
Each scholarship application comes with two Recommendation Forms to be submitted to an applicant’s references. Students should also provide their references with the below listed fax number, email address, or a stamped envelope to return to the LC Admissions office:
