Once you are selected, you will receive a link by email to an online application form. You will have to complete the form and provide the names of 2 references. They will send a link by email to an online recommendation form to each of the two references. 

After completing the application form with 2 references, you will be informed by email if you are selected for the scholarship. Upon receiving the confirmation email, you’ll have 8 days to accept or reject the scholarship. You must respond within 8 days otherwise it will be considered rejected.
