<p>I want to enter a contest- preferably a national level one- I really enjoy writing (all types), research project type contests, photography, and other things along the creative side (meaning not math). I do like environmental science, if anyone knows of any opportunities for that. Does anyone know of any notable contests coming up?</p>
<p>:( Math is creative. </p>
<p>Off the top of my head…Scholastic Art & Writing, Intel Science Talent Search, Siemens Competition. </p>
<p>Here’s a more exhaustive [url=<a href=“http://cty.jhu.edu/imagine/resources/competitions/]list[/url”>http://cty.jhu.edu/imagine/resources/competitions/]list[/url</a>] of stuff, though I’m not sure which of these are notable and which aren’t. </p>
<p>You can also look on websites that list scholarships, because some contests award scholarships to the winners.</p>
<p>The Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) have both an oratory and regular essay contest that gives fairly good money and would probably look pretty decent on a college app (if you did well). the deadline just recently ended though, but there’s something for this time next year.</p>
<p>Dupont Challenge is a Science Essay Contest. Entries are due January 31st. There is a category about the environment if I remember correctly. </p>
