Letters of Recommendation
Have you contacted at least three people who will write a letter on your behalf? Having four or five letters would be ideal, but three is the minimum. Remember that letters from family and friends will not meet the requirement for most applications. Recommendations from two professors and a counselor would be great, but you can also ask a supervisor or an employer.

Financial Aid
Almost everyone is eligible for some form of financial aid. ALL students should apply for federal student assistance by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), including the students applying for the BOG Enrollment FEE Waiver for California residents. You can access the application through the Financial Aid site on the College of the Desert website.
Remember, most scholarships applications will request your SAR which is your Student Aid Report, SO if you are applying for scholarships, you MUST complete the FAFSA application.
If you have not completed FAFSA, please make it a priority in the next few days.
