<p>I was just wondering if there was anyone else here applying for this scholarship, and which essay prompt other students chose. I chose "Why do people tell stories?".</p>
<p>I was going to apply for that award but ran out of time working on several other apps with the same due date. I did apply to the Arthur Holly Compton award. Good luck. I’m kicking myself for not applying but there are only so many essays one can write in a month and a half. :D</p>
<p>I applied for both. College Scholar Award and Arthur Holly Compton award. I chose the same “Why do people tell stories?”.</p>
<p>My D applied for this scholarship. Answered the same question about storytelling. Did everyone do the interview? Alumni? Phone? Skype? On-campus? My D did a phone interview. Kind of fun and not too stressful. Good luck to all!</p>
<p>My D answered the prompt about “if you could receive your college education in an afternoon, would you do it”. We visited campus last week and she had an interview while there. Not too stressful either. COW is such a wonderful school. Oldest D is a freshman this year and she absolutely loves it. Good luck to all as well.</p>
