School Information

Applications

The regional coordinator will visit each middle school and distrubite application packets to every eighth-grade student. Each student is asked to share the information with his/her parent/guardian and return an interest form to the homeroom teacher. Each student is responsible for completing the application and fowarding it to the Booth Scholars Program. Schools may assist in this process if they so choose, by collecting applications and forwarding the same by the October 17, 2008, application deadline.

Reference Form

Three Reference Forms are provided to each student as part of the Application Packet.

Each applicant must request a Reference Form from three individuals (preferably Teachers from the sixth, seventh or eighth grade). It is requested that two of the reference forms be completed by teachers from two different academic disciplines (English, social studies or history, foreign languages, the sciences or mathematics).

Reference forms completed by teachers should be turned into the school contact person and included in the student’s Records Folder.

Records Folder and Checklist

Designated school personnel or the school counselor are asked to complete a Records Folder and Checklist for each applicant verified by the Booth Scholars Program. A completed folder should include an official transcript or grade report, most recent report card, any reference forms and all recent (sixth, seventh and eighth grade) standardized test scores. Please complete the information requested on the Records Checklist found on the inside cover of each folder.

The Booth Scholars Program will provide the school with a Records Folder for the collection of the school records and Reference Forms completed by teachers on each applicant. These folders are distributed by the Regional Coordinators via mail or during the visit to your school.

The Booth Scholars Program will notify school personnel of applications received by October 22, 2008, and formally request completed Records Folders for each applicant.
