The team behind a contest for student bloggers dropped me an e-mail, announcing the launch of their third annual blogging scholarship.
The scheme offers students who blog the chance to win a $10,000 scholarship. The contest has just started accepting submissions, but you only have until the end of the month to apply.
While this is a laudable effort at providing an imaginative way to fund your way through college, there is one major downside.
The contest is only open to U.S. citizens or permanent residents. So my Canadian students at the UBC Graduate School of Journalism are out of luck.
It would be great to see an international contest, or at the very least, have national organisation provide similar incentives to student bloggers in their countries.
