WASHINGTON, April 4, 2019 (Newswire.com) - The College Promise Campaign announces its 2019 Student Voices Video Competition, with support from Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. The video competition will award winning students scholarships up to $2500 to assist with tuition, fees, books, transportation, and living expenses.
“We want to hear from students,” said Rosye Cloud, VP of the College Promise Campaign. “We are looking for videos that capture their stories, reflect on the impact pursuing an education has had on their lives, how it has opened doors to new opportunities, fueled their passion to pursue a field of study, or impacted their world view.”
Increasing access to higher education and empowering students is at the core of the College Promise Campaign's work. With at least two years of college as the new baseline to live healthy, happy, and successful lives, we look forward to helping more students afford college across the county.
Dr. Martha Kanter, Executive Director of the College Promise Campaign
The competition is open to students of all ages at both two- and four-year colleges and universities, as well as graduating high school seniors. Winners will receive up to $2,500 in college scholarships and get the chance to share their personal story in future College Promise Campaign digital media and publications.
The Campaign will accept student video submissions from April 15, 2019, to July 15, 2019. Students will submit short videos via social media which tell their personal stories of growth in creative ways. Top submissions will be reviewed by a panel of judges with scholarships awarded in the fall of 2019.
