7) Around September 9th, doublecheck with your two SCHS teachers that they have submitted the Google Form recommendation for you. Your email could simply say: Hello again! Just checking that the submission of my recommendation form for NHS is all done (or will be done by Sept. 11). [You can include the link they’d need from above … make sure to send the right link (character vs. leadership]
8) We will communicate with you by the email you submitted in your NHS Induction Questions about acceptance or rejection by September 15th at midnight so check your email at least on the morning of September 16th to see if you will be attending the NHS Meeting that will take place that day. The actual NHS Induction Event will take place September 29th. If admitted, you will receive a congrats letter that will show you where to pay $20 dues, join the Remind group, follow us on Instagram/Facebook and how to get started on doing 1st quarter (Q1) service hour requirements by November 2nd.
