Scholarship Essay Topic

Divorce is a life-changing experience that can bring uncertainty for children. However, it can also be a turning point for personal growth, independence, and emotional strength. We invite applicants to share their personal experiences and reflections on how their parents’ divorce shaped their ability to overcome adversity.

To participate, write an essay of up to 1,000 words in which you share your experience with the divorce, describing the most difficult aspects of the transition. Explain how you initially coped with these changes and the emotions you faced during this time. Then, explore the lessons in resilience that emerged from this experience.
