The Flexner Award recognizes the highest standards in medical education and honors individuals whose impact on medical education is national in scope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nominations may be made by any faculty or staff member of a medical school or teaching hospital or by any member of an academic society. The Award Review Committee may also solicit nominations. Any individual who has made a significant contribution to academic medicine is eligible for nomination. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nominations for the Flexner Award must include:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eight (8) copies of a statement of evidence in justification of the nomination &lt;br /&gt;Eight (8) copies of the nominee's curriculum vitae, including current address.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seconding letters of support are not necessary; however, if such letters are solicited, 8 copies must be submitted.

Some new ones have adopted the clever idea of bestowing their accreditation on some major universities, quite possibly unbeknownst to those schools. Then they can say truthfully, but misleadingly, that they accredit such well-known schools. This is the accreditation equivalent of those degree mills that send their diplomas to some famous people, and then list those people as graduates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems extraordinary that any school would lie about something so easily checked as accreditation, but it is done. Degree mills have unabashedly claimed accreditation by a recognized agency. Such claims are totally untrue. They are counting on the fact that many people won't check up on these claims. Salespeople trying to recruit students sometimes make accreditation claims that are patently false. Quite a few schools ballyhoo their "fully accredited" status but never mention that the accrediting agency is unrecognized, and so the accreditation is of little or (in most cases) no value. One accrediting agency (the unrecognized International Accrediting Commission for Schools, Colleges and Theological Seminaries) boasted that two copies of every accreditation report they issue are "deposited in the Library of Congress." That sounds impressive, until you learn that for $20, anyone can copyright anything and be able to make the identical claim. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Words That Do Not Mean "Accredited" &lt;br /&gt;Some un-accredited schools use terminology in their catalogs or advertising that might have the effect of misleading unknowledgeable readers. Here are six common phrases: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pursuing accreditation.- A school may state that it is "pursuing accreditation," or that it "intends to pursue accreditation." But that says nothing whatever about its chances for achieving same. It's like saying that you are practicing your tennis game, with the intention of playing in the finals at Wimbledon. Don't hold your breath. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chartered.- In some places, a charter is the necessary document that a school needs to grant degrees. A common ploy by diploma mill operators is to form a corporation, and state in the articles of incorporation that one of the purposes of the corporation is to grant degrees. This is like forming a corporation whose charter says that it has the right to appoint the Pope. You can say it, but that doesn't make it so. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Licensed or registered. - This usually refers to nothing more than a business license, granted by the city or county in which the school is located, but which has nothing to do with the legality of the school, or the usefulness of its degrees. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recognized.- This can have many possible meanings, ranging from some level of genuine official recognition at the state level, to having been listed in some directory often unrelated to education, perhaps published by the school itself. Two ambitious degree mills (Columbia State University and American International University) have published entire books that look at first glance like this one, solely for the purpose of being able to devote lengthy sections in them to describing their phony schools as "the best in America." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Authorized.- In California, this has had a specific meaning . Elsewhere, the term can be used to mean almost anything the school wants it to-sometimes legitimate, sometimes not. A Canadian degree mill once claimed to be "authorized to grant degrees." It turned out that the owner had authorized his wife to go ahead and print the diplomas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Approved.- In California, this has a specific meaning . In other locations, it is important to know who is doing the approving. Some not-for-profit schools call themselves "approved by the U.S. Government," which means only that the Internal Revenue Service has approved their nonprofit status for income taxes-and nothing more. At one time, some British schools called themselves "Government Approved," when the approval related only to the school-lunch program. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We hope you enjoyed the article.

Even many state universities are expensive. While some students seek loans to help defray the rising cost of tuition, other students compete for generous scholarships. In this article, you'll learn 6 quick tips you can take action on to help you compete and ultimately win a scholarship. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #1: Search In Your Community &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plenty of aspiring college students make the mistake of focusing on large, nationwide scholarships. Unfortunately, those scholarships are often the most competitive. Look for a scholarship offered by local businesses. Many times, the bank, church, or a business in your community will offer a scholarship that most students will never try to win. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #2: Start Your Search Early &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't wait until the last minute to begin looking for a scholarship. Do your research ahead of time and apply early. Keep track of the deadlines for every scholarship for which you want to apply. If you apply early, you can avoid the tidal wave of applications sent in by every other student trying to win that scholarship. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #3: Focus On Presentation &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This should be common sense. But, you'd be surprised by how sloppy some students' applications are when they're delivered. The presentation of your application goes a long way. If you really want to stand out from the other students, send your application by FedEx. It's sure to get attention. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #4: Keep A Back Up Copy &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though we'd like to think the U.S. mail system is flawless and every package gets delivered properly, mistakes happen. Don't make yourself vulnerable to your application getting lost in the mail. Make a copy before you send it. If it gets lost in the mail or misplaced at the scholarship office, you can easily send in another copy. Better safe than sorry, right? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #5: Keep Your Essay Simple &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most scholarship programs require you to write a short essay about something that happened in your life. They're not looking for beautiful prose. They want you to tell them about an event that made an impact on your life. Keep the essay simple. Even a small event can have a major impact on your perspective. Communicate that and you'll dramatically improve your chances. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quick Tip #6: Go Slowly And Double-Check &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You'll need to fill your application out completely before sending it in. You'll only have one chance to make an impression and be considered for the scholarship. If you omit something (even accidentally), your application could be dismissed. Write legibly, fill everything out and double-check the entire application before putting it in the mail. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simple Things Can Win A Scholarship &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of the most common mistakes can prevent you from winning a scholarship. Take your time and plan out the entire process. Things that seem small (such as keeping track of deadlines and double-checking your application) can make a huge difference. Go slowly, be methodical and a scholarship may be just around the corner. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simple steps to win a scholarship by JIM MACKEY&lt;br /&gt;http://www.amazines.com/view_author.cfm?authorid=31393&amp;#AuthorArticles&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**********&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;University in USA Blog URL&lt;br /&gt;http://university-in-usa.blogspot.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://english-schools-in-usa.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ESL English schools throughout the USA teach English as a second language to new immigrants, visitors, students and international students.
