Once you have your Confirmation Page or SAR, you'll need to convert it into a PDF in order to upload it to your scholarship application.

To do this, we recommend one of these methods: 1. Print from the source you've selected (email, webpage, SAR). 2. Scan your printed document as a PDF. (Ask a guidance or library staff member for help if you need it.) OR 1. Take a screen shot (Ctrl + PrintScreen) of whichever source you have selected (email, webpage, SAR). Paste the screen shot into a Microsoft Word document. 2. Click on the image you have pasted in and then use the Crop function under the Picture Tools tab to crop out anything in the image you don't need. 3. Save it as a PDF. OR 1. If you received your SAR by mail, isolate the page or pages that include your name and your EFC. This should by no more than two pages. Please do not attach your entire SAR to your application. 2. Scan the selected page(s) as a PDF. (Ask a guidance or library staff member for help if you need it.)

What to do if you have trouble:

If you have questions about the FAFSA Confirmation Page requirement or the process of preparing your Confirmation Page for upload, please email scholar@.
