The Pitch Your Idea Scholarship is a new award sponsored by the Scholarship Fellow Institute. The Institute is looking for brilliant students from all around the world, studying any discipline to award 02 grants every July and December. The student who have an idea but need some financial help to get it rolling, are eligible to win a scholarship of US$300. Interested applicants must submit an essay explaining their idea, its expected impact and how the scholarship will help them achieve this impact. Every July and December, the Institute will choose the best 02 entries and award the scholarship.
The Scholarship Fellow Institute is pitching this exciting new opportunity for students with the help of donations from collaborating industries. We are a well-known student mentorship platform where volunteers from various countries have come together to provide free consultations to students embarking on their next academic journey.
Eligibility Criteria/ Scholarship Guidelines
The Scholarship Fellow Institute has molded a Pitch Your Idea Scholarship Selection Committee that will read and evaluate all eligible entries every month. Every entry will be provided a score based on the 5 below mentioned criteria. The scores will be combined and summed up in order to determine the 15 awardees.
The committee will choose 15 winners every month. The Institute reserves the right to not issue certain awards if there are no appropriate entries. The final decisions are made by the Pitch Your Idea Scholarship Selection Committee.
Entries will be judged on the following criteria:
Comprehension – How well does the language used to explain the beginner's idea? Overall comprehension of the entry.
Organization – Is the entry organized with headings, sub-headings, and paragraphs and does it follow a logical and easily understood progression?
Creativity – Is the idea creative, never seen before, or provides an exclusive approach to a relevant issue?
Language – Does the essay comprise a variety of vocabulary, correct grammar and spelling?
Conclusion – Do the conclusions follow logically from the entry’s content? Does the conclusion explain how the scholarship will impact the beginner's idea?
We believe that these rules are straightforward and simple to follow. We strongly encourage interested individuals to take their time when writing their entry and make sure that they are submitting their best, plagiarism-free work as they are only allowed one entry.
We are looking forward to reading your entries and giving 15 young people the opportunity to work on developing their idea further and turn it into a success story.
