Writing scholarships

The following list of writing scholarships is primarily for American writing students. This list can be reorganized to incorporate scholarship programs in other countries. Just make that reorganization as clear and as clean as possible.

Additions to this list are welcomed and encouraged. Please don't be stingy about letting students in on how they can finance their educations! If you are unfamiliar with how to edit a Wiki and don't have time to learn, please contact Mathew Crawford using the email crawford@artofproblemsolving.com with the scholarship listing you wish to contribute.
