<p>Is it even worth writing the essay for this scholarship? How much is it worth anyway? How many students get this award a year? I did some profound medical research at the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic heart center. Should I bother?</p>
<p>Hmmmmm. How many colleges and universities in this country offer INCOMING FRESHMEN students a $10,000 research grant to do whatever research they want? Not many -- I actually know of only one.</p>
<p>Are you crazy? Is it worth it? YES! Wouldn't it be amazing to actually enroll in college and already have $10,000 to do whatever research you want to do.</p>
<p>The Woodrow Wilson fellows at Hopkins are impressive students who get a head start in research that many of their peers wish they had. </p>
<p>So obviously I think it is worth it...</p>
<p>If you get the scholarship, do you only have to use it for a research? What kind of research is it? Do you do it by yourself or do you join a group of people involved in a research?</p>
<p>The Woodrow Wilson is not a scholarship, it is a research grant. It can not be used to pay tutition -- it must be used for research.</p>
<p>Any kind of research -- whatever you want to do. And yes, you can do independent research, team research, or work with a professor.</p>
<p>There is amazing flexibility with the Wilson.</p>
