Send Your Custom Scholarship Essay to Win $1,500

Once every year, we’re curious to see what you have to offer and award the best work with $1,500. If you want to enter the scholarship competition, all you have to do is to write an essay explaining the situations where delegating the work is beneficial for your studies. Tell us about the times you had to have someone else do a paper for you so you could focus on more important tasks instead. If you agree with us that delegating part of the work is completely legitimate, please support that statement with your own experience.

Apply before March 1, 2019. We will carefully evaluate the essays we receive and contact the chosen winner by March 10. All submissions should be original and should be able to beat Turnitin and other plagiarism scans. We will then send the award by check to the winner’s school to be handed to them.

Mail the essay to us at [email protected] with “Jittery Monks Scholarship” in the subject line. Make sure the document is either in pdf or doc format so we can open it. Along with the essay, send us your contact info – name, phone, and address.

You need to be a college student in the moment of applying (we will check this). However, you can be located anywhere in the world! We’re big fans of students connecting across borders through platforms like Reddit and Yahoo Answers.
