12M Loans Announces the Spring Scholarship Winner
Apr 12, 2018
12M Loans, an online platform that offers loans, awarded a college student a $500 scholarship for producing a video and written content on a topic related to financial responsibility.
San Francisco, CA, United States - April 12, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —
12M Loans is proud to announce the winner of its first quarterly $500 scholarship - Edidem Christopher Ekpoudom. The company has launched an ongoing scholarship program in 2018 to encourage responsible borrowing practices, particularly among students.
Ekpoudom is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Administrative Management from Clayton State University, and he is expected to graduate in 2022. His short video and accompanying essay on "How to Build Healthy Borrowing Habits" offer advice on setting priorities and avoiding potential pitfalls when handling engaging into borrowing relations.
"Keep in mind that loans must be repaid. Do not borrow more money that you can provide." Ekpoudom writes in his essay. "Is it good for you now? Will it be better or worse later in life? When choosing the loans that exceed your needs, be mindful of margins, deadlines, interest rates, taxes, and others variables that have a direct impact on your purse." Other students who are currently searching for or paying back loans for higher education may find Ekpoudom's work especially informative.
As the average annual cost of public college tuition reaches over $9,500, many ambitious students are searching for financial aid to help cover the rising costs. 12M Loans will continue to grant scholarships to other students throughout the year, with the goal of making higher education opportunities more affordable and loan borrowers more knowledgeable. Submitted content that is original and shows a clear understanding of responsible borrowing practices will be considered for the $500 award.
Students who are interested in entering the contest should submit an original video or infographic to 12M Loans, along with an essay of at least 750 words. The content should focus on one of the following topics: "Five Ways to Cope with Chronic Money Insufficiency," "How to Build Health Borrowing Habits," or "A Student Loan Nightmare Scenario Is When…"
Applicants must be at least 18 years old and enrolled full-time or part-time in a U.S. school, college, trade school, or an accredited university. Besides, applicants must be U.S. citizens or residents and have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.8. Applying for this scholarship is free.
12M Loans encourages students to not only apply for this scholarship but also share their thoughts on the contest. By doing so, students can share financial insight with one another, as well as help 12M Loans find new ways to raise awareness for smart borrowing practices.
