<p>So I'm sending off my application for the Coronat Scholarship, but I lost the instructions (i.e. where to email it, what to put on the cover page) It is due tonight....so does anyone know, this would be so helpful, thanks!</p>
<p>Here you go. Technically, I think it was due last night… although I don’t think that’s what they meant. Urgh. Either way, good luck!</p>
<p>The entire email:
Dear XXXXXXX,</p>
<p>I am writing to offer you an extraordinary opportunity. Although the Office of Admissions will not make formal admissions decisions until mid-March, I invite you to apply now for a Coronat Scholarship. The Coronat Scholarship is the most prestigious award bestowed by Syracuse University, and you are being encouraged to apply because of your superb application to The College of Arts and Sciences.</p>
<p>Coronat Scholars are a very select group of exceptionally talented and promising students. Some are bold academic risk-takers; others show remarkable intellectual originality; and many have made substantial contributions to their communities. These qualities embody the Syracuse University ideal of undergraduate learning, and we expect such students to make a powerful difference in the intellectual life of The College.</p>
<p>If you are selected as a Coronat Scholar, you will receive:</p>
<p>§ full tuition for four years;
§ our pledge to meet your financial need that exceeds the cost of tuition;
§ additional funding for one SU Abroad international study opportunity, either short-term or semester;
§ funding for one summer of approved study, research, or volunteer work (awarded on a competitive basis);
§ admission to the Renée Crown University Honors Program;
§ mentoring for prominent national scholarships including Rhodes, Marshall, Fulbright, Truman and others. </p>
