Nikhil Desai "Favorite Film" Scholarship
Oftentimes, the academic process can be agonizing and stressful, especially in our climate today. Writing scholarship essays, answering application questions, all while balancing regular school work can become overwhelming and rather unenjoyable. This often leads to discontent and discouragement, swaying students from school and ruining their perception of education.
In an attempt to dispel this thinking, I am creating the Nikhil Desai "Favorite Film" Scholarship. I believe this scholarship will provide students with an academic opportunity that is enjoyable, creatively stimulating, and expressive beyond the monotony of regular school work.
Anyone is eligible to apply for this scholarship. To apply, please tell me about your all-time favorite movie/film and why it’s your favorite!
