<p>Hi everyone,
I just found out this scholarship program but I can’t get enough information from website. So if you have applied or are applying for it, please help me.
- What is the deadline? I’m applying EA for Notre Dame. Is the deadline the same?
- I don’t understand the nomination process. Must I be nominated by my high school in order to apply? I’m an international student so I assume my high school doesn’t even know the nomination process of the scholarship program. Can I still apply?
Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Hey there! I know the website’s a bit tricky to navigate, but here’s a good page for explaining a lot about the selection process <a href=“https://www.hesburgh-yusko.org/?page_id=129[/url]”>https://www.hesburgh-yusko.org/?page_id=129</a></p>

<li><p>The deadline for the HYSP is November 15th - 2 weeks after the EA deadline</p></li>
<li><p>The nomination process is really much less rigid than the website makes it sound. I’m a current HYSP scholar (I’m a freshman), and last year I just went to my counselor and told her about the program (she’d never heard of it before), and she filled out a recommendation form online for me (you won’t be able to submit your application until your counselor submits her recommendation). Most other people that I know of in the program did the same thing.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>(Also: the program LOVES international students. Being an international student is a big advantage for getting selected for this).</p>
<p>I hope that info helps, and if you need any help in the future just message me!</p>
<p>Thank you very much, trekker5211.</p>
