The Brigham Young University Office of Research and Creative Activities will host a Writing Workshop to help students prepare their ORCA applications Wednesday, Sept. 30, at 10 a.m. in the Wilkinson Student Center Varsity Theater.

ORCA offers $1,500 grants to help undergraduate students to team up with a faculty mentor. Students may either design their own project or work on a professor’s ongoing research.

ORCA writing workshops are customized for the ORCA student award program. Students are taken through the application process and given writing tips for a successful proposal. The workshops are presented by faculty from different colleges.
