You may also find it helpful to use Truman’s Writing Center and online resources for writing grant proposals and filling out applications. Be clear and honest in your writing.
You may want to research the history of the foundation. This will allow you to specialize your responses and application for the specific things the foundation is looking for.
The most important thing, however, is that all of your materials are submitted on time. These are national and international scholarship opportunities, and we have no control over the deadlines. If you miss a deadline, you will have to apply in future years.
