These are scholarship opportunities that I find that are based off of literature or creative writing. Feel free to add any others that you find! Also, remember to read the scholarship guidelines before submitting anything. You might be accepted... you might not.

Atlas Shrugged Essay ---> $50-$10,000

"Writers of the Future" Short Story Scholarship ---> $500-$4000

Catcher in the Rye Quiz ---> $500

Siddhartha Quiz ---> $500

Hamlet Quiz ---> $250

The Great Gatsby Quiz ---> $500

Bible: Genesis Quiz ---> $250

I love you.

I applied for the last "Writers of the Future" one. Nope! Didn't get any money. It was sad.

They all sound cool. My mom will love this. She's been a bit worried about college funds ever since I didn't turn out to be the athletic type.

I got really close for one of the Writers of the Future scholarship. They published me in their little book, but didn't give me any money.

I'll have to apply to "Writer's of the Future". I wonder if they'll let me enter multiple times as I get older, and when I go to college, I get all the money I accumulated. I'll check it out.
