In this section a window will appear with your current student information. You will correct and complete the general information.

2. SCHOLARSHIP QUESTIONNAIRE :
You will be asked an extensive list of questions. Every question refers to eligibility factors of one or more of the SBVC scholarships. You may answer as many or as few questions as you like; however, incomplete answers may greatly reduce the number of scholarships for which you may be eligible.

You will be asked to write a 250-300 word single spaced essay. Prior to completing your application online, it is recommended that you write your essay and store it on a floppy disk or some other form of digital storage. You may also bring your hand-written or printed essay for typing on to the application. If you save your essay, you will have the option to Cut and Paste your essay to the application.

If you go beyond the count of (300) words or do not single space on your biography, it will be cut at 25 lines and you may not have included pertinent information.

Please consider taking your essay to the campus Learning Resource Center (LRC) or the Writing Center in LA 201, and utilizing the writing, proofing and editing services they provide.
