Amplifying the Voices of Women & Girls Through Film

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Topics differ based on age. Students in grade 11 and younger should choose one or several of the following topics on which to focus the theme of the film.

Entrants will then be judged on their ability to address the topic(s) of choice by being engaging, informative, inspiring, and creative through their film. All submissions must show a strong (research-supported) understanding of the topics and related issues. Submissions must share and highlight solutions to the issues discussed in the chosen sustainability topic(s). The film entry's theme must be solution-based. The film should talk about an environmental/sustainability problem and then discuss what could be a potential solution to this problem. For example, consider a film that discusses over-logging and deforestation and then elaborates on how paper-based product industries can change their methods to harvest sustainably. We look forward to viewing your entries that talk about a current problem and how you propose we solve this problem as a community with the goal of sustainability.

Students in grade 12 and above have more freedom with content/topics. Their submissions should be environmental films that motivate viewers towards behavior change or activism.

Film Length

Entrants may submit a film of no shorter than 3 minutes and no longer than 8 minutes.

Sponsor will accept and consider short animated films. The minimum length for animated submissions is 45 seconds. Animation/stop-motion films can present a solution or motivate viewers towards awareness or behavior change for one of the six topics. In other words, animations from those in grades 11 and younger are not required to show a problem and solution within this shortened time frame, as they are required to do with live action films.

Prizes

Winners in each category will receive the following prizes:

1) of their film at the One Earth Film Festival and at other related and subsequent educational and non-profit events hosted (or co-hosted) by Sponsor. These screenings may occur in person and/or online (recorded or streamed).

2) of their film at the One Earth Film Festival website. (Note: Sponsor reserves the right to utilize submitted films for any promotional materials and online media, at its sole discretion.)

3) Cash prize or scholarship : Each winner will receive a cash prize pertaining to the grade level category:

Elementary (grades 3, 4, 5) live action or animation: $100 cash prize + $100 matching grant

Middle School (grades 6, 7, 8) live action or animation: $200 cash prize + $200 matching grant

High School (grades 9, 10, 11) live action or animation: $350 cash prize + $350 matching grant

Senior Year + College (grade 12 or enrolled college students through age 25) live action: $1,000 college scholarship + $1,000 matching grant

Middle School + Post-Graduate (grade 6 through age 25) animation/stop-motion: $1,000 college scholarship or cash prize + $1,000 matching grant

Senior Year + Post-Graduate (grade 12 or enrolled college students or beyond through age 25) live action or animation/stop-motion, Planet Warrior Prize for Creativity, in honor of Sally Stovall, co-founder of Green Community Connections: $1,000 college scholarship or cash prize + $1,000 matching grant

Post-Graduate (recent college graduate through age 25) live action or animation/stop-motion: $1,000 college scholarship or cash prize + $1,000 matching grant

As a reminder, while a group of people (ex: a class or a group of friends) may submit an entry together, only one prize will be awarded to the group as a whole. Prizes are subject to change without notice.

4) Matching Grant: In addition to the cash prize or scholarship, each winner will receive the privilege of selecting the recipient of a matching grant. The grant will be donated to a non-profit organization or community sustainability project that the winner chooses, subject to Sponsor's approval.

Judging Criteria

Sponsors and its judges will check for adherence to these Rules, including eligibility, compliance with all terms (legality, conduct, etc.), film length, format, etc. Films will be judged by GCC volunteers based upon quality and content of the film and its ability to educate, inspire, and raise awareness of the film's chosen topic.
We also stress that films from students in grade 11 and under will be judged on their ability to address a problem and propose a solution to that problem. Films should state a current environmental/sustainability problem regarding one or more of the topics listed above and propose a solution that can help solve/lessen that problem. Films from students in grade 12 and above will be judged on their ability to educate, inspire, and raise awareness of the film's chosen topic.

A full-tuition scholarship for women and non-binary students in STEM.
Funded by Cards Against Humanity. Applications close December 13th, 2023 at 11:59PM CST.

Apply Now

How To Apply

Film a three-minute educational video of yourself explaining a STEM topic you're passionate about. You must be a high school senior or an undergraduate college student to apply. To view videos we've liked in the past, check out our previous winners. Your video should be:

A mini-lecture, not a personal statement. Pretend you're a lecturer speaking to a class. Teach us something.

Clear, creative, accurate, and a demonstration of your passion for the subject. We value novel, memorable approaches to topics. Your video doesn't need to be fancy or high-tech. Production value is not a factor.

Three minutes or less in length. Videos longer than this will not be considered. No exceptions!

About any STEM topic, not necessarily your field of study. Pick a topic that excites and fascinates you. We don't need to hear about the latest thing in science news (unless that's your jam).

Scientifically accurate. We encourage you to cite the sources used to research your topic. Ideally, this would be in a slide or frame at the end of your video. You can use any citation format you'd like.

Uploaded to YouTube and marked 'public.' No exceptions!

An advisory board of women and non-binary professionals who hold higher degrees and work in a broad range of STEM fields will review applications and select finalists. Finalists will be notified in early 2024 to submit additional materials. A winner will be announced in April 2024.

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the final deadline?

Submit your video by December 13th, 2023 at 11:59PM CST. Late video submissions will not be accepted, no exceptions.

Which fields of study are eligible?

All fields within science, technology, engineering, and math are eligible. For a full list of STEM fields, click here. STEM must be your major field of study (not your minor).

I work in a school. How can I share this opportunity with my students?

How can I help support the Science Ambassador Scholarship?

You can spread the word to as many eligible students as possible. Also, you could grab the Cards Against Humanity Science Pack or Climate Catastrophe Pack. All sales fund the scholarship.

Meet the Winners

Every semester, our scholarship winners make videos explaining a topic they're learning about in school.

Meet the Science Ambassadors

The Expansion Packs

Our goal is to highlight outstanding women and non-binary students in science, technology, engineering, and math. To date, we've funded eight full-tuition scholarships and created a community of mentors and students who work in STEM fields.

Scholarship funds are provided by sales of Cards Against Humanity's Science Pack and Climate Catastrophe Pack.

Climate Change is Here

We all experience climate change differently depending on where we live. As global temperatures rise, our weather patterns change, causing heat waves, drought, flooding, hurricanes, and more. While Kenya endured a fifth year of drought, Pakistan experienced unprecedented floods. Wildfires in Canada and the US have become a regular summer occurrence, but for islands in the Pacific, like Kiribati, sea level rise threatens their land and freshwater resources.

Perhaps you did not get any snow days last year due to an uncharacteristically warm winter, or you couldn't go to the beach due to harmful algal blooms. Maybe your favorite animal is at risk of losing its habitat, or your favorite foods are becoming harder to find at the grocery store. These are all symptoms of climate change.

While you're experiencing some of these climate impacts, you may also be noticing climate solutions: more electric vehicles on the road, solar panels on houses in your neighborhood, composting efforts in your school, or your friends switching to plant-based diets. These are all effective ways for individuals to take action against climate change by reducing their carbon emissions.

Why Tell Your Climate Story?

Climate science is very data-driven. From the data, we know that climate change is happening and can project how it will impact weather, agriculture, and infrastructure. It is also one of the biggest threats to our oceans. It is important to understand this, but often, the data feels too removed from day-to-day life. By telling your climate story, you can bridge the gap between the data and your reality. There's power in telling a personal story through art, writing, dance, film, and more. Through the arts, you can help people connect with these issues in a new and relevant way.

"People can't understand the world as a gift unless someone shows them how it's a gift." - Robin Wall Kimmerer

Your climate story does not have to be a catastrophe, like extreme weather or wildfires. You can focus on how climate change is altering how you eat, play sports, or make vacation plans. You can celebrate climate solutions in your community or initiatives that you have participated in, or share how you find strength and inspiration in our changing world. These are all part of your climate story. It can be cathartic to express your feelings about climate change, and we hope you will find community and realize that other people around the world are experiencing and feeling some of the same things you are.

Last year, we explored Climate Heroes who have taken steps to fight climate change, from organizing rallies, researching solutions, and raising awareness. Oftentimes, the catalyst that sparks their journey comes from their lived experiences - their climate stories. With that, we ask you to tell your climate story.

Tell Your Climate Story Prompt
Think about climate issues and solutions and consider how they have affected you or your community. Find something that resonates deeply with your experiences - perhaps a climate impact you witnessed, an initiative that you've participated in, or a source of strength and inspiration when thinking about the climate crisis. Share your personal climate story through art, writing, performance, film, or multimedia. What is the story that you'd like to tell? Note: We are asking specifically about climate change and not other environmental concerns, like plastic pollution, oil spills, and overfishing. If you do choose to address these issues, make sure that you research how they connect to climate change and incorporate that into your submission.
Who May Enter

Students ages 11-18 from around the world are invited to participate in the Ocean Awareness Contest. Enter the division based on your age at the time of entry:

Students can participate as an individual or as a club, class, or group of any size. All students must provide the contact information for an Adult Sponsor (teacher, parent, mentor, etc.) Students who have started college or university are not eligible to participate in the Contest.

Being funny can get you far in life - it makes people like you and may open up a lot of doors. Smart people are generally always in demand, and they can usually command high salaries. Rich people are more likely to be able to focus only doing things they enjoy.

It's important to be happy with who you are, regardless of your wealth or intelligence level. So tell us, would you rather be smart, funny or rich...and why?

Our Unigo $10K Scholarship could help increase your education with $10,000 to use towards school.
Applicants must:
This award is for U.S. students.| Must be a legal U.S. resident.| Must reside in the 50 United States or the District of Columbia.| Must be 14 years of age or older to apply.
Submit an online written response to the question:
"Would you rather be smart, funny or rich? Why?" (250 words or less)

The Unigo $10K Scholarship winner will be notified by email or phone on or around March 31, 2023.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What if I have to withdraw from school during a semester?
A student must maintain continuous full-time enrollment during the fall, winter (for trimester schools only), and spring during each successive academic year, unless granted an exception for cause. Examples of exception for cause may include personal injury or death of an immediate family member, participation in a cooperative program, internship program or foreign study program. If a recipient fails to maintain continuous full-time enrollment, unless granted an exception for cause, that student is ineligible to receive funds during the next semester or trimester of full-time enrollment of a regular academic year. Summer semester enrollment is not considered part of the regular academic year.

What if I drop below full-time enrollment during a semester?
A student must maintain full-time enrollment. If a student drops below full-time status during a semester or trimester of the academic year, that student is ineligible to receive funds during the next semester or trimester of full-time enrollment of a regular academic year.

Why must I reapply every year?
Current legislation requires "...the board shall create a renewal application for each student who received the award for one or more terms during the immediately preceding academic year." At a minimum, a student must file the following renewal document no later than the close of business on the deadline date: online application.

Why must I sign off on the Statements of Certification as part of the application process?
Additionally, the legislation states that "...Each student, each year, must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid form or a Statement of Certification as designed by the administering board to determine his/her eligibility...". The Statement of Certification was developed as an alternative to the completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid for those students and parents who feel that they will not qualify for the federal Pell Grant. Be sure to read the certification statements carefully on the web application.

Is my GPA checked at the end of each semester or at the end of the academic year? Besides my GPA, what else is checked?
Continuing eligibility for MESG will be evaluated at the end of each semester/trimester of the regular academic year. Cumulative grades (3.5 required) and continuous full-time enrollment will be evaluated.

I'm enrolling in a vocational or technical course of study. Am I still eligible?
Yes. The legislation governing MESG allows students who are enrolling in Vocational or Technical programs to receive MESG awards if those students meet the entrance requirements of that particular community/junior college and maintain the school's Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards, as certified by the school's registrar. The student must meet the high school GPA and ACT score requirements also.

My ACT score is 29 or better, but my high school GPA is less than 3.5. Will I be eligible for MESG after attending college and establishing a 3.5 GPA on college course work? If my high school GPA is 3.5 or better but my ACT score is below 29, will I ever be eligible for MESG?
No and no. MESG recipients must qualify as a high school senior meeting both the ACT score of 29 or better and high school GPA of 3.5 or better.

I have lost eligibility for MESG. How can I regain eligibility?
If a student loses MESG eligibility due to less than full-time enrollment status, that student must attend, without the benefit of MESG funds, one full-time semester or trimester during a regular academic year, before regaining eligibility unless an exception for cause has been granted. If a student loses MESG eligibility due to having less than a 3.5 GPA, that student will regain eligibility when the cumulative GPA is improved to the required minimum.

Is MESG available to me for summer school?
No. MESG is available during the regular academic year only.

My MESG award was canceled because my institution reported that I was not enrolled full-time. Can the MESG award be reinstated?
Yes. Your MESG award can be reinstated but you must get your institution to submit an official enrollment verification report verifying that you are full-time by the applicable deadline for the term of enrollment. The deadline for Fall term is October 15, for Winter term is January 15, and for Spring term is March 15. Please contact our office prior to these deadlines if there are any unusual circumstances that you feel should be considered.

My MESG award for the Spring term was canceled because the institution reported that my Fall semester cumulative GPA was below the required 3.5. Due to grade changes, my cumulative GPA is now 3.5 or better. What must I do to have my award reinstated? Your institution must submit an official grade verification report demonstrating that you earned the minimum required GPA. The grade verification must be received by March 15. Please contact our office prior to this deadline if there are any unusual circumstances that you feel should be considered.

September is National Rice Month, a time to celebrate the harvest of the small but mighty grain that has captivated Americans' hearts and stomachs for more than 300 years. Nearly 85 percent of the rice consumed in the United States is grown right here on family farms across six states: Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Texas.

That's a fun fact that not many people are aware of - and that's where you come in! The National Rice Month Scholarship Video Contest is an opportunity for graduating high school students living in one of those six rice-growing states to tell a story about U.S. rice.

Create a video or animation that in three minutes or less, shines a light on this versatile, tasty, home-grown grain. Educate, entertain, and tell us why you think rice is special - to you, to your state, or to the world!

How to Enter

1. Create an original, short (3 minutes or less) video about U.S. rice, National Rice Month, and the importance of rice to you, your state, or the world in general.

2. Before uploading your video, let us know you're A REAL PERSON by adding an intro that shows you, on camera, saying your name and the name of your school (this footage will not count towards the 3 minute video limit).

3. Upload your video to YouTube or Vimeo. Please note, TikTok videos may only be uploaded via Vimeo.

4. Complete the entry form and submit your video. Entries must be received by October 15, 2025.

5. After you've uploaded your video, share it on your social media. Encourage your friends, family, and teachers to watch and vote for your video. (You can also check out your competition.)

Scholarship Prizes

Three scholarship prizes, sponsored by the American Commodity Company (ACC), totaling $10,000 will be awarded:

The grand-prize winner will receive a $5,000 scholarship, and an invitation (along with a chaperone) to the USA Rice Outlook Conference, this year in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The second-place winner will receive a $3,000 scholarship.

The third-place winner will receive a $2,000 scholarship.

Video Requirements & Important Dates

Create an original video about U.S.-grown rice that's 3 minutes or less in length. Don't forget the video intro where you tell us your name and the name of your school.

Entries must be received by October 15, 2025. Winners will be notified by November 7, 2025.

Judging Criteria

Contest entries will be judged on creativity, quality, and effectiveness in telling a story about U.S.-grown rice.

It's really all about the education

It's often been said that "education is the key to success." What doors could your educational "key" open? It's not cheap to get a college degree, and many college-bound students see a shut door for education. We're here to help open it again.

School can get expensive, so we want to know how winning a $3,000 All About Education Scholarship could help make a difference in your life. Will it ease the burden of student loans? Will it offer you the opportunity to pursue a dream? Will it help you inspire others to work towards their own goals?

Education can truly change a person's life - and this scholarship just might be that first step. Let us know why winning a scholarship for education matters to you.

Applicants must:

Be thirteen (13) years of age or older at the time of application

Be legal residents of the fifty (50) United States or the District of Columbia

Be currently enrolled (or enroll no later than the fall of 2025) in an accredited post-secondary institution of higher education

Submit an online written response to the question:
"How will a $3,000 scholarship for education make a difference in your life?" (250 words or less)

The All About Education Scholarship winner will be notified by email or phone on or around July 30, 2019.

External Scholarship Opportunities

Permalink for External Scholarship Opportunities

External scholarship money is available to students of all qualifications, abilities, and interests. These external scholarships may be provided by private donors, foundations, businesses, and many other sources outside of Mississippi State University. Here are a few helpful tips for finding scholarships that are right for you:

1. For first-time freshmen, speak to your high school guidance counselor about options that are specific to your interests and intended major.

2. Never pay for external scholarship services! Should you have any questions reach out to your high school guidance counselor or college scholarship office for further questions.

3. Search for scholarships that may be offered by a parent or legal guardian's employer, civic clubs, and local community. Corporations may offer scholarships to children of their employees.
