Weird Scholarships, Part 2

Weird Scholarships, Part 2

Are you weird enough to win a scholarship?

By Kathryn Knight Randolph

December 14, 2011

Last year, we highlighted 15 weird scholarships that students can win just for being…well, weird. Now, we’re doing it again!

And let’s be honest, everyone is a little weird — so there could be something here for you. Whether you’re a rough and tough cowboy or just happened to be born with the last name “Zolp,” check out the weirdness now!

Please note: Many of these scholarships are open only to students attending specific schools. If you are interested in any of these scholarships, check out the school first to see if it’s the right fit for you. Use Fastweb’s College Search tool to find the perfect school for you.

    I know almost every song out there. If someone in my classes starts talking and its a verse from the song, I'l l start to sing it allowed. Also, my right foot is bigger than my left and I'm the youngest person to have my gullbladder surgically removed in my family.

    I was born with a blood clot called a Hematoma on my nose and I was nicknamed Rudolf growing up. The doctors would put reindeer antlers on my head as well.

    While changing classes, I run around and bark at people while acting like an ostrich.
    People always call me weird, I don't think so.

    Potatoes have always been my favorite. Not to the degree that I qualify for the scholarship, but this one's pretty cool.
