I need to create a cover sheet for a scholarship application, but I have no idea how. I’ve searched the internet for formats, but I’ll I get are fax cover sheets and cover sheets for classes.
Also, what is a cover sheet? Does that entail your letter of intent? I’m so confused!
Thanks for your help.
Are you sure that *you* are the one who needs to make the cover sheet? Isn’t it already part of the scholarship application? It should be the first page of the application, the one that asks for the basic information. I’ve searched online for cover sheets and all that come up are part of applications for scholarships. I haven’t found any that are "standard formats" to use.
If you *are* required to make the cover sheet, check the application. They should have rules and guidelines of what a cover sheet should include.
Personally, out of all the scholarships I applied for only one required a cover sheet (it was an essay-contest thing), and their rules were:
[For mailed-in essays only: You MUST include a stapled cover sheet with the following information: your name; mailing address; e-mail address (if available); the name and address of your high school; topic selected (#1, 2 or 3 from the list above); your current grade level and (if applicable) the name of the teacher who assigned the essay.]
I wouldn’t exactly go by this, though. If I were you, I’d check the application first. If it doesn’t say anything on it, call the foundation or check their site if they have one. That should give you more accurate information and hopefully will not disqualify you.
