Mary Jane Simpson Scholarship
Our application opens on Monday, February 16, 2026. We strongly encourage applicants to submit their materials well before the final deadline of Sunday, April 5, 2026.
Applications submitted on or before Sunday, March 15, 2026 may receive courtesy notice of a completeness check to identify any missing required components. This courtesy notice will allow an applicant who submits on or before March 15, 2026 up to three weeks to address any deficiencies before the close of the application period.
All applications will ultimately be reviewed for completeness. However, applications submitted after March 15, 2026 will not receive advance notice of missing materials, and applicants will be wholly responsible for ensuring that their submissions are complete. Applications that are not entirely complete (including materials requested to be submitted by others, for example reference letters or high school transcripts) by April 5, 2026) will not be reviewed.
Our goal is to support applicants in presenting an complete application. We can best do that when materials are submitted early enough to allow for meaningful completeness feedback. We therefore encourage applicants to plan accordingly and partner with us in this process by submitting well in advance of the deadline.
