Instructions for completing and submitting the application form

1. Download the application form to your computer. (Or, you can save the file directly to your computer, without opening it, by right-clicking on the link itself and selecting “Save Target As” or “Save Link As.”)

  • If you open the file directly in your browser, save it to your computer before you fill it in; that gives you the flexibility of of working on the application in more than one session.

2. Fill in the form

  • When you are ready to work on the application form, click on the file name to open it directly in Adobe Reader. Note that you will need Adobe Reader 7 or later if you plan to save the filled-in file.
  • Check the “Highlight Fields” checkbox, which you should see at the top of the document window. The form fields will then be highlighted.
  • Select the hand tool from the Reader toolbar menu.
  • Position the hand pointer inside a form field and click. The hand pointer changes to an I-beam pointer, which allows you to enter text from your keyboard. You can also select a check box in the same manner.
  • Press Tab to move to subsequent fields.
  • Press Shift + Tab to move back to previous fields.
  • After completing the application form or if you intend to finish it at a later time, save it again to your hard drive or a removable disk or drive.
  • Review the application form to be sure you have answered all the questions. Review a printed copy and make any necessary revisions or corrections.
