The DirectTextbook Scholarship Essay Contest






Find out what you have to do to apply for this easy scholarship from DirectTextbook.com. Scholarships are a dime a dozen this summer and it’s in your best interest to apply to as many as possible.











DirectTextbook.com is offering an easy scholarship that will award three cash prizes to selected individuals. First place will receive a $2,500 scholarship, second place will earn $1,000 and third place will win $250. Simply answer the question “What is a principle? How are principles important to your life?” in 500 words or less along with an online application to enter (hint, if a principle is not your pal then it’s not a person). The deadline for this scholarship is July 15 2012 and winners will be emailed on or before August 10 2012.

Application Process

Online applications are among the easiest and most preferred methods out there when it comes to scholarships. The days of sending essays and applications the snail-mail route are dying out since no one wants to wait ten days to find out whether a recipient has received your package. For the DirectTextbook.com Scholarship Essay Contest winners will be notified by email on or around August 10 so hover around the computer around that time. A few questions they ask on the application include which school you’ll be attending in the fall, are you’re a legal resident of the U.S. and whether your GPA was above 2.0/4.0 or not. Other than that, just compose a 500 word essay answering the question, enter the “Human verification code” and submit your application.
