    DHS Common Application Packet (CAP)

    The DHS Common Application is often referred to as the DHS CAP. For most local scholarships you will be able to use the Douglas High School Common Application Packet.  Follow these steps when filling out the common application:

     

    • Douglas High School (pdf) Common Application Packet Form

    • Autobiography: Advice for assembling your autobiography

    • At least 3 letters of recommendation (use form to request letters)

    • An unofficial transcript (you can get this from the counseling office dhsstudentrecords@dcsd.k12.nv.us )

    • Be sure to create a unique cover sheet for each scholarship which shows the name of the scholarship you are applying for and your name.

    • Use only ONE staple to secure your entire packet. If you have parts stapled together such as letters of rec or autobiography, take out these extra staples before the final staple.

    • DO NOT (1) use paper clip, binder clip, or other such fastener; (2) use a folder, plastic sheet protector, or other covering for your packet
