Helpful Tips for CURM Applicants:

Attached is a letter that was sent out to the CURM Applicants to better explain what the CURM is looking for in its applications. This letter is NOT a specific checklist of what types of materials you should include in your application. Instead, it is our way of answering some very common questions we recieved from our applicants.

Helpful Hints for Applicants (.doc)
