Bio Templates All of the applications for characters can be found here. Before posting, make sure they you've filled out the form entirely as we do not accept work in progress applications. Students and staff currently have the option of filling out the standard form or an interview with Headmaster Dawson. Remember that the interview must be written in the third person, if you choose to fill that one out. When you're finished, post the app as a new topic in the Registrars office with your character's first and last name as the title. A staff member should be around shortly to look things over. 1. Students. For anyone ages 14-18 who will be attending Shady Grove Academy. 2. Professors and Staff. The applications for professors as well as non-teaching staff at SGA. 3. Residents and Visitors. Anyone who lives in or is visiting the the town of Shady Grove. If you're creating a visitor, make sure you've read over the rules very carefully
