Our research left one requirement for this situation unresolved in the public record. Take the clarification below to the responsible office and get the current position in writing before you submit anything.
Found in public documents, graded and dated. The statements closest to your situation come first; a single first-person account never outranks the documentary record. Open any source to read it yourself.

Two kinds of thing sit here: questions the published record leaves open, and points where our own reading stopped — at a login we did not cross, or a step we could not observe without applying. Each item says which it is. Both are reasons to ask before you apply rather than after.
