Scholarship Reel: April
You're not going to believe this but I have another deadline reel to share. Strange considering the frequency or lack thereof. The scholarships that will be shared are from all over the place with no specific category.
While hunting for scholarships, focus is highly placed on results that don't have restrictions or residency requirements. Namely, living and attending in a specific state. Even if they are desirable, I try to keep the options within reach.
The deadline for this scholarship is April 13, 2018 so be sure to read through the page as there are things you need to obtain and submit.
Even if you're not eligible or looking to help out with the scholarship funding, then you can donate what you can using the Donations tab.
The requirements for both essays is to read the book specified, if you haven't read it already. Once the ready part is complete then you are to choose a discussion question of which your essay will focus on. All this info can be located within the Official Rules section; link within the essay sections.
This is possibly one of those moments where it's a good idea to go that extra step and mail out the finished pieces via priority if not express mail.
LOF has hosted these challenges for many years and each year presents a new theme for which to convey an important message to the viewing audience. Entries to past challenges have conveyed their messages in a way that call for closer looks as the representations of the themes are very much outside the box. Feel free to explore the rest of the site as there's a plethora of resources to explore.

To me this is a rare find as most scholarships relating to photography are difficult to find if not catch. The 2018-2019 session is over but don't let that stop you from brushing up on things before the next session; this includes gathering important paper work.
