You’ll then receive an email from ‘webforms-algsd@assistanceleague.org’ with the link to continue your application.

When applying using the online application, REQUIRED additional documents (letters of recommendation, transcript) can be uploaded and submitted with the online application. These documents must be in PDF format. NOTE: You will first submit your application form, then use the Secure File Upload process to upload your documents.

Once you have submitted your online application, you’ll receive a confirmation email from Assistance League of Greater San Diego (‘webforms-algsd@assistanceleague.org’). When you submit your required additional forms online, you’ll receive a confirmation message at the time you submit your files, but no email confirmation.
