Before you start, decide exactly what you want to say. What you write should be clear, concise, well organized, interesting and distinctive. Ask an instructor, counselor or friend for their input. Rework your material until it says what you want. Give it one last look Applications, forms, letters, essays, questionnaires and any other information you send in as part of the application process should be typed or computer generated.
Laser printing looks the best.
Proofread your materials. Make sure everything is professional, no obvious white-out, no last minute corrections with a pen, no misspelling, no errors and no crumpled paper. Have someone else proofread your materials again before you send them in. Keep it all on file Keep copies of everything you send. You can use the material for later reference in the selection process.
