9) Reference Forms & Letters (1 original and 2 copies of each): You will be required to include two letters of reference from academic, professional or business contacts. Please avoid using family members or family friends. If you have not graduated by the time you work on your application, one of the references must be from some one related to the university and must contain a reference to your expected date of graduation. Ask the two separate individuals recommending you to use the provided form as the first page followed by a personal assessment on his or her organization’s letterhead. All letters of reference must be prepared specifically for this application. Ask each reference writer to make two additional copies of his or her original letter with original signatures and the reference form. All reference forms should be returned directly to you in sealed, signed envelopes. You should include these two sealed, signed envelopes with your completed application packet.
The bolded part is the problem. When I start the application, I will still be an Undergraduate. I don't finish up until February of 2009.

If you have never held a job before...JET might not be the first place to start.
That seems like a weird one. Almost 27 without a job before. lol I have had one. I'm an Instructional Assistant now in a middle school. All my other jobs have been office ones.
