Announcing the 2022 Crossword Scholarship!


We are excited to announce that the 2022 My Crossword Maker Scholarship is now open for submissions! Here at My Crossword Maker (formerly Crossword Hobbyist), we believe in the importance of education for all students no matter their background. That’s why we’re thrilled to offer a $1,000 scholarship to a current or incoming undergraduate student who will be enrolled for the Fall 2022 semester.
How to Apply
Most scholarships want you to submit an essay (been there, done that). Essays are great, and we do want to hear a bit about you, but we love crosswords! That’s why we’re asking applicants to create one 15×15 newspaper-style crossword puzzle on My Crossword Maker. The theme should focus on a topic that you’re passionate about. It can be anything you want! Animals, music, skateboarding, cupcakes, retro video games, your favorite binge-worthy show – the sky really is the limit.
Please review the instructions, terms, and conditions carefully on our Crossword Scholarship Page to determine your eligibility. The deadline to apply is May 2nd, 2022 and we can’t wait to see your creativity!
Awards
The winner will receive a $1,000 scholarship and a free lifetime subscription to My Crossword Maker.
Up to five finalists will also be awarded a free lifetime subscription to My Crossword Maker.
