Our list of English scholarships is comprehensive and includes scholarships for English majors focusing on creative writing, poetry, science and technical writing, and more.  While some scholarships here are open to everybody, others are only open to students who are pursuing a particular kind of writing.  Many of these scholarships are aimed specifically at minority students of a particular descent.  The better you are at writing, and the more skillfully you can express yourself, the better your shot at winning a merit-based scholarship.  But because these scholarships are all so highly competitive, you also will want to make sure you apply for any demographic based scholarships which may apply to you.  And remember, if you are a law-school hopeful, check out scholarships for law students as well!
