Sub Pop's 2015 Loser Scholarship

Hey kids! Time is running out for you to be a loser: the deadline for Sub Pop's 2015 Loser Scholarship is Thursday, April 2nd.

Every year, this highly-respected local label offer a scholarship opportunity for graduating high school seniors who reside in Washington or Portland, and are on their way to full-time enrollment at an accredited university or college. Sub Pop looks for applicants who are involved and/or interested in music and/or the creative arts in some way. There are three scholarships up for grabs — one for $7,000, one for $5,000, and one for $3,000. Think of how many pizzas that will buy. (We kid, we kid!)

To apply for these scholarships, just submit an essay, no longer than one page, letting Sub Pop know about one or more of the following topics:

• • What are you doing in the arts/music field in your community?
• • How and/or why did you become interested in artistic outlets?
• • How would this scholarship money help you to progress in your chosen field?
• • What are your influences and/or who inspires you? Who are some of your favorite bands or artists?
