Hello everyone,
I am a foreign student currently enrolled in a film school in the USA and I am writing a coming-of-age story. My setting is in the USA and can somebody tell me about how the undergraduate scholarship works?
So I am thinking that the main character who is a 17-year-old kid and she's in a science student club. She wants to apply for a full-tuition scholarship for a prestigious university with a science project that she's working on. Does this make sense? I tried to do some research but all led to a dead end. Is there a kind of scholarship for university based on a science project?
I am thinking she’s one of the best in this science student club and the advisor of club suggests her to work on a science project in order to apply for a full-tuition scholarship for a prestigious university. The instructor thinks based on how good she is, she has a great chance to receive the scholarship.
Does this kind of scholarship exist? If there is, can anyone offer me some information about it?
I will really really really appreciate it!!
Thanks!
@Chien-Ni,
Usually scholarships are offered directly through a university. There is such a thing as the National Merit Scholarship, but that's generalized and not based on science schoolwork.
It probably won't be horrible if you make something up. There are any number of obscure scholarships out there. Where I went to college (Boston University), there was a scholarship you could get if you kept a certain grade point average and were a Methodist. My roommate won it one year; that's the only reason I know it existed at all.
Stumble It!
