The
Winner of the SPRING 2008 Scholarship Has Not Been Selected
Yet. |
The
BlackNews.com SUMMER 2008
Scholarship Essay Contest
The
BlackNews.com SUMMER Scholarship is NOT an academic scholarship
- It is entirely based on an essay submission.
Who's Eligible?
To be eligible for the scholarship award, one or both
of your parents must be African-American. The award is not
open to students who live in Africa. You must live in the
United States, and attend or plan to attend a school in the
United States. The institution you choose can be any trade
school, college, or university.
How Do I Apply?
There Are Just Two Steps
Involved:
1) If you haven't already, you must register with BlackNews.com
right now! Its free, and it takes just two seconds! Plus every
Thursday, we will email you the top Black news stories of
the week.
2)
After you register with BlackNews.com, you have until
August 31, 2008 to write a 500 word essay
on why you feel (or don't feel) that people - Blacks and
Whites - shouldn't be allowed to use the N-word at their leisure.
Your submission must be emailed to: scholarship@blacknews.com
Do not submit your essay through postal mail.
Important
Guidelines:
The subject of your email must be: "BlackNews.com Summer
2008 Scholarship". Also, your essay submission must be
within the body of the email along with your name and contact
info. Do
not email your essay as an attachment.
If you do not follow these instructions precisely, your entry
will be disregarded.
We will review all submissions and select a winner based on
the quality, uniqueness, and creativity of the content in
your essay. By September 30th, the winner will be awarded
$500. We will not publish the winning essay, but will
announce the name of the winner, and the school he/she attends.
If you are the winner, the check will be written out to you,
not your school. So really you can use the money however you'd
like to.
Important Note:
For
questions not answered on this page, you MUST email us at
support@blacknews.com -- However, we will not respond to pointless
inquiries or questions that have already been answered on
this page.
If you are having doubts about whether or not you qualify
for this scholarship, then you probably don't.
