Where’s FRANKIE the Diploma Frame? Scholarship Photo Contest

Take FRANKIE the Diploma Frame on a summer adventure, and he could earn you $500 to help pay for textbooks for the 2010-2011 academic year! At Church Hill Classics, we are looking for the most creative and fun-themed photos of our mascot, FRANKIE the Diploma Frame.

All you need to do is print and cut out a copy of FRANKIE, available on our diplomaframe.com website, and take a photo of (or with) him. Take FRANKIE to the beach, have him play sports, or make him the life of a party. You can submit any photo, as long as a cutout of FRANKIE is included.

Take a look at submitted entries as well as an overview of where in the world FRANKIE has visited so far!

“Frame My Future” Scholarship Contest 2011

Coming up soon is our 3^rd annual “Frame My Future” Scholarship Contest, where we award $6,000 in scholarships! Five students each receive a $1,000 scholarship, and one student also earns a $1,000 donation to their college or university’s scholarship endowment fund!

The best part is that it provides an opportunity for students to be creative! To enter, you submit an original creation that shares with us how you frame your future and what you want to achieve in your personal and professional life after college.  The main guideline is that your creation must be submitted within one image. Entries range from photographs and collages, to fine art and graphic design pieces, to poems and written submissions.

Check out our 2010 Winners and Finalists!

This scholarship will open for entry on October 7, 2010, and is available to students who will be attending college full-time for the 2011-2012 academic year.  Sign up to receive more details as the contest start date approaches: http://www.diplomaframe.com/ScholarshipInformation.cfm

I’m always on the lookout for scholarship opportunities for college-bound teens. And when I find one that doesn’t require an essay, I’m ecstatic. Why? Because there is always that student out there that is loaded with creativity, but not the best wordsmith.

Frame My Future Scholarship, sponsored by Church Hill Classics, asks applicants to “upload an original creation that shares with us what you want to achieve in your personal and professional life after college.  The main guideline is that your creation must be submitted within one image, in a JPEG format.” This allows for creativity to abound because images can be photographs, collages, a scrapbook page, a poem–just as long as it’s a single JPEG image that can be uploaded.

This year’s scholarship contest is coming to a close, but there’s a link on their site to VOTE for one of the top 24 finalists (give these creative college-bound teens some votes) AND a link to  sign up to receive information on next year’s scholarship. What could be simpler?

As always, I recommend you keep a scholarship file (either online or in a folder) with all your scholarship finds so that when the time arises to apply, you won’t forget about a single one!

Kudos to Church Hill Classics for coming up with this unique scholarship!
