Scholarship Essay Contest Details
What is the deadline and where/how do I submit my scholarship essay?
All submissions are due by June 23, 2022 and must be delivered via email to solidessay(at)gmail.com as a Microsoft Word or Google Docs attachment. If you submit the scholarship essay in the body of the email, it will be disqualified. Be sure your full name and email address are typed at the top of the essay. Failure to do so will disqualify your entry. Any entries received after the due date will be disqualified.
What is the word limit?
Minimum number of words is 600 and maximum is 800.
Who will review my scholarship essay submission?
English teachers and editors will review each submission. We will redact your name before the essays are submitted to the judges so they can review each one anonymously. We have found this is the fairest way to review submissions.
How many winners will be chosen and when will I find out if I'm one of them?
Three winners will be chosen as follows:
- First place wins a scholarship of $1000
