Cada beca abierta para la que tu escuela tiene que nominar a un estudiante, en una sola tabla. Cada fila tiene la fecha límite del programa y la fecha para empezar a pedirla.
Nadie aplica, así que nadie ve venir la fecha. El estudiante no sabe que la beca existe. Quien nomina se entera la semana en que cierra. Así se pierden dos o tres becas al año en la mayoría de las escuelas.
Publica un formulario corto o un anuncio antes de noviembre. Pregunta quién quiere ser considerado y para qué. Así tendrás nombres antes de la primera fecha para pedir.
Cada fecha límite es la que aparece en la página del programa que enlazamos. La fecha para pedir es esa fecha menos 21 días: tiempo para elegir a un estudiante, escribir y cumplir los pasos internos. Abre la página del programa antes de comprometer un lugar.
