Common Knowledge Public Relations Scholarship
The PR/communications industry has experienced tremendous growth over the past decade. PR consultants have a wide range of tasks including portraying a company in a favorable light, communicating with the media, managing crises and planning special events.
This scholarship contest has two rounds: Round 1 is a short, multiple choice quiz based on questions from college-level PR courses. You receive 500 points for each correct answer and lose 1 point for each second taken to complete each question. The top 20 students with the most points at the end advance to Round 2.
Participants advancing to Round 2 will submit an original newsletter article on one of three topics. The article should be no more than two pages long.
The writing sample will be graded on:
1. creativity
2. accuracy
3. spelling/punctuation/correct use of AP style
Here are the topics for the newsletter article:
Option 1: Write about a person in your life that has greatly influenced you.
Option 2: Write about your plans for after college graduation (career, hobbies, volunteer work, etc).
Option 3: Write about an important accomplishment/milestone in your life, college, or work.
