Hello!

One of my applications asks me to add an addendum based on my participation in AmeriCorps. I'm just not sure how long this should be, what I should include, etc. These are the directions:

AmeriCorps and Teach for America alumni are eligible to receive a $5,000 financial aid award for the MPA or MPP program. Alumni should submit an addendum with their application stating their alumni status and requesting financial aid consideration.

Do they really just want "I am an AmeriCorps alum and would like to be considered for financial aid"? I feel like I should add more...

Any advice would be very much appreciated!!!

Follow the directions. Mention when and where you served.

It sounds like they just want a short note to know to take you into consideration when they allocate funding. Tell them when and where you served and possibly add a short description of what your work included. It doesn't need to be more than a 2-3 sentences.

Perfect! That's what I thought, but wasn't completely sure. Thanks for the help!
