2. You are required to include WITH YOUR APPLICATION (attach file at bottom of webform):
a. Bio paragraph that we will display on our web site (see scholarship page for samples)
Tip: look at other online student bios. Make yours personable but not so informal that it’s chatty and unprofessional. We want to present you at your best!
b. Digital file (jpg format) headshot that we will display on our web site (ditto)
IMPORTANT! We want you to look your best.
Please consider the following:
- Make the file name of your jpeg image to be YOUR NAME. IMG00023 doesn’t tell us much!
- Please have your face EVENLY LIT
- Please have a simple (solid?) background, perhaps a neutral color (a wall)
- Go easy on a flash – flash pictures often make the face look harsh, and have odd reflections
- Modern cell phones take great pictures – please use highest resolution and file size that they offer
(if you should have to mail the image separately, do not allow your mail program to reduce the file size)
3. A confirmation email will be sent to the applicant as a confirmation that the form was successfully sent.
Please contact dean@worcago.org if you do not receive that copy of your application within one day.
