Everyone likes to laugh and make people laugh, so why not get paid for it? The Make Me Laugh Scholarship is all about making the judges LOL. So instead of filling out paperwork, take a break and let your hilarious juices flow!

You can write about an embarrassing, funny, totally true story, or you can make one up and test your funny side. This is a scholarship to have fun with that has zero stress, and it lets you have fun while giving you a chance to be the winner of $1,500! Now that’s a lot of money to be paid for having fun and being creative, don’t you agree?

To be able to take part in this great once in a lifetime opportunity, you must be 13 years or older when you sign up, and you have to be a legal resident of the US or the District of Columbia. Plus, you have to be “currently enrolled (or enroll no later than the fall of 2021) in an accredited post-secondary institution of higher education.”

Now for the tricky part. Your outrageously hysterical story can only be told in 250 words or less. Yeah, that’s hard, I know. I also know that the creative Germ in you can rise to the occasion and write the funniest, most amusing short story you have ever written. Save the date on your calendar because your masterpiece story is due on August 31, 2015, and you will hear if you won or not around November 30, 2015.

Go to scholarshipexperts.com to apply and get even more juicy information. Good luck, and remember: Be relaxed and have fun because in the hectic life of a teenager, laughter is the best stress relief.
