1. Completed ETS Application (with Social Security number and taxable income included)
2. Most recent Transcript (if in high school) and/or Report Card/Progress Report
3. If applicable, a copy of an award letter if you are receiving federal assistance such as: TANF, Social Security, Disability, etc.
Although not required, for expedited processing of your application please include:
o A copy of your most recent tax form (1040)

All information is kept confidential and is used only to determine eligibility for the Educational Talent Search program.
