Create a Zintellect Profile

If you have applied to other ORISE programs using the Zintellect portal, you can just log in to your account and skip to Step 2, Online Application. Creating a profile allows you to save basic information such as your name, contact information and educational history. If you apply to more than one program using Zintellect, you will not need to re-enter this data.

Online Application

The second part of the application process consists of answering questions and submitting documents specific to the program. This includes:
  • Unofficial transcripts
  • Current resume
  • Essays
  • Providing contact information for two individuals who can serve as references.
All documents must be uploaded in PDF format. Your online application must be submitted by the application deadline. Once you submit your online application, you can no longer make changes to the information provided. Please note, your references will not be sent instructions on how to complete a reference on your behalf until you have submitted your application therefore early submission is strongly encouraged.

References

References

Once you submit your application, the references you listed will receive an auto-generated email from the Zintellect system with instructions on how to submit a reference on your behalf. It is your responsibility to communicate with your references to determine if they received instructions on how to submit a recommendation.
