<p>What the name of that scholarship that has the essay prompt "What my vote will mean to me" I wrote the essay but can't seem to recall the sholarship foundation.</p>
<p>is this it?</p>

<p>why in the world do they need my SSN?</p>
<p>probably identification purposes, which is a wrong use for the number. social security numbers are so abused nowadays, and i admit that sometimes find myself carelessly giving it away. come to think of it, almost all of my scholarship applications asked for it. crazy.</p>
<p>they also might want to steal your identity, but i'm not for certain on that one.</p>
<p>after the college/scholarship application process, i memorized my school's ceeb code, the 4 digit extension on my zip code, my social security number (and those of my parents), and various college-assigned application ids. sigh</p>
