About Your Application Materials:

How should my resume differ from the one I used for OGI?

You can use essentially the same resume format that you used to apply for jobs with firms or public service employers, but make sure to highlight any writing experience you have.

How long should my writing sample be?

Writing samples should be no more than 15 pages in length. Feel free to excerpt 12-15 continuous pages from a longer piece. Some judges require writing samples to be shorter; make sure to note each judge’s specific requirements.

Which transcript should I use?

For most applications, you can use your unofficial transcript or a photocopy of your official transcript. Never use a printout of your grades from ISIS.
