The ideal candidate will be an ambassador for their field. They are looking for someone passionate about discovery who shares their excitement with others.
To apply, submit a three–minute video of yourself explaining a topic in science you are passionate about.- Deliver a mini lecture, not a personal statement, as if you are teaching or lecturing an audience.
- Don’t spend lots of time introducing yourself—just jump right into your topic.
- Your video should be three minutes, no longer.
- You can discuss any topic in science you like, not necessarily your field of study.
- Upload the video to YouTube or Vimeo, and make sure the video is set to public.

What: College & Scholarship Information
Website: Cappex
Cost: Free
Why: Why not- This offers a huge list of scholarships as well as complete information on College Searches and requirements.
So far I am fairly impressed with this site. Even though I entered my 12 year old daughter's birth date in the system it would accept it - I am guessing you need to be in high school to actually sign up for an account. I created an account for myself and that I would graduate fairly soon. It offers a comprehensive search on colleges and their requirements for getting into their college. The thing I loved most about this site it that there is an abundant amount of information that links to numerous valid scholarships. While I have 3 children that will be attending college during the same years (twins +1--everything times 3), we will need all the help we can get. I am definitely bookmarking this to revisit when it is time. Highly recommended for those with college aged students.
