Award Amount
$2,000
Application Deadline
October 31, 2016
Did binge-re-watching "The Walking Dead" get you thinking about what you’d do if the streets were filled with flesh-eating zombies? Maybe you've envisioned your own post-apocalyptic world overrun with the living dead, forcing you to come up with a zombie survival plan — and quick!
Hone your survival tactics and imagine what your school or college campus might be like in a zombie apocalypse. Our Zombie Scholarship committee wants to know your plan to avoid the zombies, where you’d hide, and the top-five things you’d bring to stay alive.
Our Zombie Apocalypse Scholarship is live, and we are giving one successful "survivor" $2,000 towards his or her college education. Do you think you have what it takes to make the cut?
Applicants must:
Be thirteen (13) years of age or older at the time of application
Be legal residents of the fifty (50) United States or the District of Columbia
Be currently enrolled (or enroll no later than the fall of 2022) in an accredited post-secondary institution of higher education
Submit an online short written response (250 words or less) for the question: "Imagine that your high school or college has been overrun with zombies. Your math professor, the cafeteria ladies, and even your best friend have all joined the walking dead. Use your healthy brain to flesh out a plan to avoid the zombies, including where you’d hide and the top-five things you’d bring to stay alive."
The Zombie Apocalypse Scholarship winner will be notified by email or phone on or around January 31, 2017.
