Write a Winning Essay. Win a $5000 Scholarship!
Here's how to enter our essay contest for a chance to win a $5000, $500, or $250 scholarship:
- Download and carefully review the Official Guidelines below.
Be careful here—submitted essays that do not follow the guidelines fully will not be considered.
- Write and submit your essay.
The essay should be a minimum of 1500 words, and based on the theme: "Is My Country Proud of Me?" Our panel of judges will review the entries, select finalists, and award the winner a $5000 scholarship. The runner-up will receive a $500 scholarship. The second runner-up will receive a $250 scholarship.
- The best essay wins.
It really does. There are, however, some entry rules. You have to be a high school freshman, sophomore, junior or senior---and you have to follow the rules carefully. We'll look forward to reading your great work.
All essays must be received electronically by 11:59 MST, Sunday, March 11, 2012. No exceptions for late entries.
If you have any questions about the essay scholarship contest, please contact us at Scholarship@JoeFoss.com. Even for those students who do not win, the essay contests have proven to be a positive experience. We have created our essay contests that award a scholarship for high school students so that all of our entrants are inspired by the lessons learned in writing the essay.
