Description:
The ‘Writer’s Encouragement Scholarship’ was established by EssayService.com as a part of our Writing Development Program. The scholarships are administered and awarded in line with our commitment to the academic success of our members. It is our aim to support and encourage students to realize academic success and build the best possible foundations for their professional lives. At EssayService.com members and non-members alike can access a growing range of content which we hope will serve to encourage students and assist them in developing the writing skills that are so crucial in academic and professional life. The purpose of the Writer’s Encouragement Scholarship is to encourage students to continue to practice their writing and we hope the awards of up to $500 will be a real support to students.

An important difference this scholarship has from other similar awards is that we do not only take note of the competence with which the applicants write their application essays; we also assess their level of improvement since their previous applications. Many of those who are awarded the scholarship are granted it on their first attempt. However, we encourage students to make new attempts whether they have previously won or not. Subject to their consent, a member’s application will be kept on record and improvements from their previous attempt will favorably support subsequent applications. The factoring of improvement in the assessment of applications is motivated by our commitment to the ongoing support and development of our members.
