Do you have a passion for learning and want to further your education? Do you want to improve your chances of employment by earning a college degree?
We all know that, in today’s economy, scraping together funds to attend college can be a challenge. Tuition alone can be a burden, but related expenses such as room & board, textbooks, and other materials add up quickly. It is easy to feel overwhelmed and discouraged, wishing for some relief. Goedeker’s believes in your potential and would love to see you flourish. That is why we are offering a $500 grand prize scholarship toward costly college textbooks. Awards Available The grand prize is a $500 scholarship. Two $100 scholarships will also be awarded to honorable mention entries. This scholarship applies toward the fall 2014 semester. It is not meant to cover the expenses of summer classes. These scholarships will be granted through our contest annually. Submission Requirements Essay length should be 300 words minimum Proof that you have a 3.0 GPA or higher Clear contact information (name, mailing address, preferred means of contact) A few sentences about yourself and a recent photo of yourself which will be used for publicity purposes on Goedeker’s Home Life blog Proof that you are enrolled in an accredited college for the spring 2014 semester OR proof that you have been accepted at an accredited college for the fall 2014 semester Please attach the items listed above to an email and send them to Matt at matt [dot] davids [at] goedekers [dot] com with the subject line “Scholarship Essay Entry - (your name).” Eligibility Any student that is enrolled in an accredited college is eligible to participate. This includes any grade level, freshman to senior; undergrad and graduate alike are eligible. Even if you are a transfer student, non-traditional student, studying abroad, or taking classes online, you can enter. Any major or field of study is acceptable. High school seniors that are enrolled in an accredited college, either for a dual credit program or for the upcoming semester, are eligible to enter as well. You must either be enrolled for the spring 2014 or registered for the fall 2014 semester. Being enrolled in summer classes does not make you eligible to enter. Deadline to Enter We will consider submissions of essays until the entry deadline, which is July 31, 2014, at 12am CDT. | |
