The Elevate Writer Scholarship recognizes ambitious writers with academic achievement and broader accomplishments. Independently administered by Honor Society and its designated scholarship review committee, the award focuses on the purpose behind an applicant’s writing and how developing a voice connects with education, professional ambitions, or personal goals.
Applicants explain what they write, why they write it, and how they continue developing their writing. The program emphasizes relevance and writing consistency rather than publication: a published article is not required. Specific examples of writing interests and habits help applicants demonstrate the connection between their writing and the direction they want to pursue.
