How do my legal parents complete and submit the Parent Information Form(s)?
The Cooke Foundation requires both of the applicant’s legal parents to submit Parent Financial Forms in later stages of our review process for the Young Scholars Program. For the application, we only require one of the applicant’s legal parents to submit AGI (adjusted gross income) information. Separate Parent Financial Information Forms will be collected later in the process if the student’s legal parents are not married to one another or do not reside in the same household. The Cooke Foundation considers the legal parents to be the applicant’s biological parents, adoptive parents, or legal guardians.
