Weird Scholarships For Students
Are you in search for weird scholarships? No need to look any further. You can take advantage of some of these crazy scholarship opportunities we have listed on here. These scholarships don't require you to be an academic whiz or a superstar athlete to get them. Apply for these scholarships to get yourself some financial help for your studies.
A drawing for $10,000 for school is going on right now. Yes, that's right. $10,000 are awarded for school for the winner of the drawing. The great thing about it all is that after you complete the short form for registration you are entered. To qualify, you need to be a citizen or permanent resident of the US. It doesn't get any simpler than this.
What is your last name? Van Valkenburg - this is the lucky winner. To those with this last name, they can get a one thousand dollar award for school. Now that is what you call a random scholarship.
Do you happen to be in an area of study related to potatoes? If so, then you can apply for the Potato Industry Scholarship. Seniors who are studying in the potato industry area of study qualify for this scholarship. The best submission of this scholarship contest will get a $2,000 scholarship for school.
Are you able to read the minds of others? If so, you may want to consider the Excellence in Predicting the Future Award. This wacky scholarship is for students who are pursuing a degree in the field of economics. This tries to encourage students to get interested in the stock market and related jobs.
One more weird scholarship you can check out is the Tall Clubs International Scholarship. Men need to be 6'2 tall at minimum, and the minimum for women is 5 feet and 10 inches tall. The student who can explain in the best way what being tall means to them gets the one thousand dollar scholarship.
