Is Your Last Name Zolp? There Is A Scholarship For That

Ahhh the wonders of college scholarships. To some this maybe an exciting thing to others it may just be a hassle, and for most it may be nonexistent. My family most definitely does not fall into the latter category.

Scholarships, have been the latest fad in the Worlund household, with Zeb going to college in the fall and what not. So when I, a high school sophomore, decided to find ways to rack up moolah for the big hooha, I ran across some quite interesting scholarship opportunities. Many random scholarships for people with weird quirks.

Remember when people use to make fun of you for being small? Well not anymore you should apply for the scholarship of being under 5”!

Hey remember when people thought you were weird cause you didn’t eat meat? Well now you can rub this scholarship for being a vegan in their faces!

Did the most popular girl or guy at school turn you down for the senior prom? Then you might be a Trekky! And if you are you could get this scholarship for being able to fluently speak Klingon! Take that gorgeous Cindy!

Remember when you spent those long agonizing hours learning to play the bagpipes while prancing around in a kilt? Well if you can pass a few simple song test then you could be awarded this scholarship for students who avidly play the bagpipes!
