OSCAR questions

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Dec 14, 2020 1:48 am

I'm completing my first OSCAR application and have a few questions. I used the cover letter online editor and formatted the text so it's in times new roman size 12, which showed up accurately in the live preview. However when I look at judge preview or the application in its entirety, the cover letter is like size 10 arial. Does formatting not work for cover letters created on the web editor?

Also, I think this may be a glitch: The position I'm applying for doesn't ask for references, so I left the references box under the recommenders blank. However, when I go to the next step, "review," it randomly says "judge" under my references. Doesn't show up in the judge preview though. Does anyone know what I'm talking about.
