Here’s a super simple scholarship contest, a super easy way to earn $1,000! Simply fill out a form and write a short essay for a chance to win $1,000! You can even use an old essay you already wrote for class!

Eligibility:

• Must be in the 9th-12th grade in high school or college or graduate students.
• Must be a legal resident of the US.
• Must be currently in school or planning to start school within the next 12 months.

How to Apply:

• Fill out a short form with basic contact information here.
• Write a 250 word or less essay answering one of the following questions:
  • Why do you deserve to win this scholarship?
  • Describe your academic or career goals.
  • Any topic of your choice.
• You may re-use an essay you wrote in class, for college admission, or another scholarship competition.

Quick Tips:

• Because this is a short essay, it is crucial to make every word count. Delete unnecessary words such as “very” – they take up space you could be using to explain yourself better!
• Make your essay concise, clear, and understandable. Add some personality and flare, but follow grammar and style rules closely.
• If you already wrote a great essay for school, use it and save yourself even more work!
• Have someone else read through your work before turning it in.
• Make sure you answer either of the two prompts completely, or, if you decide to write about your own topic, make sure that it is appropriate.

Deadlines: December 31 & July 31
