Scholarship Essay Prompts

Scholarship "season" has not begun, but you are getting a head start by doing any/all of these essay prompts BEFORE this summer and before school starts!  If you plan to do Smith, Dell, or Gates Millennium, read the qualifications carefully. Then, plan a 2-3 hour conference with me between July 15 and August 15.  

Scholarship Essay Prompts

As always, copy/paste into a NEW document and put it where I can edit it in Google Drive.  Once we complete the summer program, send me a text and I can edit/suggest ideas via the internet and your Google Drive.

Dell Scholarship Worksheet

The Michael & Susan Dell Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to helping children and youth achieve their potential. The Dell Scholars program offers an opportunity for under-served and lower income students to realize their dreams of attaining a college education.

I have taken the application and divided it into parts--twelve short, but powerful essays/statements that may enable you to earn a substantial amount ($20,000) for college.
