Here students will be able to view the status of their application and submit their supplementary items (Personal Essay and Letter of Recommendation) required to complete their CEI Foundation Scholarship Application. Students will be able to either upload a letter of recommendation themselves or request one through email using the “Recommendation Request” feature.
