Important information regarding citizenship status, transcripts & letters of recommendation
Applicants must be American citizens or permanent residents of the United States.
We strongly encourage applicants to use the e-transcript delivery services used by most institutions. E-Transcripts should be sent to us by the delivery service, and not forwarded to us by the applicant. If you must submit official paper transcripts, please order them before college administrative offices pause issuing transcripts while fall grades are being posted or offices close for winter break. Official paper transcripts in sealed unopened envelopes should be mailed to the Blakemore Foundation, 701 Fifth Avenue, Suite 4200, Seattle, WA 98104.
If recommenders have difficulty uploading their letters, they may email them to contactus@blakemorefoundation.org.
