All you have to do for this writing scholarship is submit a written response to a question in 250 words or less on a topic that changes annually.  2021’s question: “2020 was a year to be remembered. What will you remember most about 2020 and why is it important to you?”.  You probably have something to say on that! Check out past winners’ responses to questions like “Surprise! You just got elected president. What’s your first Tweet?” (2017), or “Weighing the expected investment and return, is college worth it for you? Why?”(2016). Students must include name and contact information, background details, academic details, and a short original, previously unpublished written response to the writing scholarship topic, and submit before the end of December. The winner will receive an email notifying that they won the writing scholarship, and prize money will be paid directly to your post-secondary institution.. So jot down 250 words worth of your most vivid lockdown reflections and take the 2021 Unigo Writing Scholarship challenge!
