Weird Scholarships For College Students
Are you looking for weird, random, or even wacky scholarships to help pay for your college education? Then look no further. You need to apply for some of these crazy scholarships to help pay for your school. To qualify you don't have to be an academic genius. So get some money for school by taking advantage of them.
There is a $10,000 scholarship drawing. That is correct. You get $10,000 in this drawing if you win. The great thing about it all is that after you complete the short form for registration you are entered. As long as you are a permanent resident or a citizen of the US, you qualify. This is by far the easiest it can get.
What is your last name? The lucky last name is Van Valkenburg. Those with this last name get a $1,000 scholarship award. A weird scholarship that sure is.
Are potatoes something that is part of your studies? If so, then you can apply for the Potato Industry Scholarship. Those who are studying in the agricultural studies are eligible to apply for this scholarship opportunity. A $2,000 scholarship will be given to the winner.
Do you have extraordinary mental capabilities? Look further into the Excellence in Predicting the Future Award if this is true for you. Students who are pursuing a degree in the field of economics are eligible for this wacky scholarship. A purpose for this random scholarship is to have students become interested in jobs related with the stock market.
Take a look at this other weird scholarship called the Tall Clubs International Scholarship. The scholarship restrictions say that males have to be at least 6'2 to qualify, and ladies have to be 5'10 to be eligible. One thousand dollars are awarded to the person who can best explain what being tall means to them.
