Follow the Barry M. Goldwater instructions exactly. You do not have to contact a member of the Academic Scholarship Committee for permission to complete the application. Only contact a member of the committee if you need help or advice.
References: References are crucial to your application. Request references from those faculty who know you so well that they can attest to your scholarship in math, the natural sciences, or engineering. Also, based on their knowledge of you and your work, they should be able to acknowledge your potential for growth in your chosen field.
