1	When developing your budget please include the following (as applicable):
2	- Educational Discounts (e.g. software bundles for students and educators). You are very likely eligible!
3	- Tax free purchasing if purchasing through the STUDIO. If you are a student and you'll be taking this as a nonqualified scholarship you cannot exclude taxes and you may be taxed on this grant.
4	- Include shipping costs.
5	- Be specific! Include links to products!
6	- Names of people you'll be working with (if you know).
7	- Use educated estimates. You can't know every cost, such as flights, but please do your research and be prepared to budget for contingent price fluxuations.
8	- If using the template: Create two bugets one for your minimum requested budget and one for your maximum. Or clearly indicate in your own budget the difference between your max and min.
9	- Prepare early for any (student) assistant hires by speaking with your STUDIO staff about eligibility and timelines for hires
10	- Check your math and make totals clear and obvious for the jury. Use a spreadsheet equation to make this easier for you "=SUM(cell range)"
