What can literary merit do for you?

Paying for College

<p>Any major scholarships specifically geared toward writers? What could a kid who’s quite average in terms of math, science, and other practical fields, but wields off-the-chart literary knowledge do to have her talent serve purpose in terms of funding for college? </p>

<p>It seems like many of the greatest scholarship opportunities are open for the engineering, medical, and scientifically inclined- is there any hope for someone like me?</p>

<p>the scholastic art and writing awards gives $10,000 portfolio awards to 12 seniors per year, about half of which are in writing. if the deadline hasn’t passed for your region, this is a pretty sweet opportunity.</p>

<p>Also, for those who are not seniors (since it’s already passed for you guys), NFAA ARTS talent search and recognition is a really sweet scholarship program for the arts offered to graduating seniors.</p>
