What is Scholarship?

A scholarship essay is an essay written to a scholarship-granting agency, supporting why you should receive one of their scholarships. However, scholarship essays are rarely straightforward explanations of why you are a deserving recipient, but, instead, usually allow you to choose from one of several prompts and write a compelling essay that addresses the prompt while demonstrating your worthiness for the scholarship. These essay prompts are often similar to the college admission essay prompts employed by various colleges and universities. You can find a good example of those topics on The Common Application’s admission essay page.
