For new college students, the summer before school starts can be a stressful, hectic few months. You’re preparing for your first year of post-secondary school, you’re worried about your dorm, living in a new place, and on top of that, you need to line up financial aid and scholarship money.  But we’re hearing from more and more students who are having a harder time receiving financial aid in these tough times than ever before — and we’re even hearing that state budgets are even going so far as to cut financial aid programs for students, even the ones who need it the most. Everyone knows that going to college is a valuable experience which helps people get further in life — and that the pursuit of knowledge has a worth that far exceeds anything money can buy — so we want to do what we can, financially, to make sure you can go to college. We provide educational services, after all, so of course we care about education.

Note: You can use it for anything (a new computer, textbooks, your plane ticket home for the holidays). The only catch is that you must be enrolling as a freshman in a 4-year college or university in the United States.

But we know that this is the summertime and the days are long, and that the last thing you want to do is stay inside, hunched over a computer, writing an essay half-halfheartedly that won’t be of use to anyone (we’re not trying to be mean, but c’mon here). We’d rather have an essay from you that you actually cared about, thought about, and took time writing.

Contest – How to Enter & What you Win

So, we’re proposing this: submit your already written college admissions essays (you know, those personal statements you wrote to get into the school you’re trying to afford right at this moment), and we’ll award 3 winners a sum of scholarship money and free expert editing and writing help on Eduify to use once you start school. We call this the Wunderkind Essay Contest because it rewards you for being the brilliant students you are — students who have already worked hard through high school and have already been accepted to college but who just need a little extra help affording it all. First place gets $1,000 plus 3 months of free Eduify help. Second place gets $500 and 2 months of free Eduify help. Third place gets $300 and a month of free Eduify help.

So, to enter this contest, simply go here, fill out the required information, and upload your college essay onto Eduify. It’s that easy — possibly the easiest scholarship contest ever created, seriously. You have until September 15 to enter an essay and get as many votes as you can for our Wunderkind Essay Contest.

See Current Entries & Vote For the Best One

Eduify will host all of these essays online — anonymously — so that students can see the essays of their peers and vote or comment on their work. To see some essays that have already been entered, check out the essay page and vote and comment away.

And of course, we can’t end this blog post without mentioning that not only do we hope to get a great essay from you, but we also wish you all the luck in your college career. Now, do your student loans a favor, and submit an essay to Wunderkind.
