Due to extenuating circumstances with COVID-19 we have not only extended the Girls in Science application deadline to May 4<sup>th</sup> but we have also waived the requirement for
<u>a written letter</u> of recommendation from a STEM teacher. We are asking instead that you give us the
<u>name and e-mail address</u> of a STEM teacher (science, technology, engineering, or math), mentor (someone you’ve volunteered with), or guidance counselor that can speak as your reference (no relatives please). Please send them an e-mail letting them know
we may reach out to them. We understand that these are unique times that may lead to unique situations. Exceptions may be made on a case by case basis. </p>
