A letter of recommendation (letter of rec) is a letter written by someone in your life who can speak to your achievements, positive traits, and potential.

FYI: You have to ask someone to write a letter of rec for you.
Yes! But make sure to read each scholarship application's essay guidelines and requirements, and personalize your essay to each scholarship you apply to. Using the same essay for multiple applications can be a time-saver, but changing just a sentence or two can make a difference!
