Eligibility:

A) You must be a high school senior or an undergraduate student.

B) You must attend a school in the United States.

A) A mini–lecture, not a personal statement. Pretend you're a lecturer speaking to a class. Teach us something.

E) Scientifically accurate. We encourage you to cite the sources used to research your topic. Ideally, this would be in a slide or frame at the end of your video. You can use any citation format you'd like.

F) Uploaded to YouTube and marked 'public.' No exceptions!

Deadline: December 15, 2023-Amount of scholarship$1,000

The Dirk Derrick Car & Truck Accident Injury Scholarship is an award for any current or soon-to-be undergraduate student in the United States who has had his or her life altered due to an injury from a car or truck accident, be it their own injury, that of a loved one, or an influential individual. The Dirk Derrick Scholarship has a brief submission process, and applicants will be judged on their ability to convey the lasting effect an auto accident has had on their life as well as their journey to overcome those challenges. Applicants may apply via the Google Form below.

Students applying must submit an essay where you explain, present, inspire, or otherwise convince us as to why you deserve to win this scholarship. There are no conditions or outside requirements for this essay. Please keep submissions to 5 paragraphs and 600 words at the absolute maximum. This is not a standardized test. While spelling, punctuation, and general cohesiveness will make your essay easier to read, and therefore judge, you are not being graded. The winning submission will be one which clearly conveys a non-fictional story of your life before and after an auto accident.

Auto accidents can be life-changing. At Derrick Law Firm Injury Lawyers, we believe in keeping the public safe by bringing first-hand experience to those who haven’t had it, as well as easing the stress of accident victims as they enter one of the most important phases of their lives.

This is a one-time $1,000 scholarship and the winner will be announced on December 30th of each year.

Strong Work Ethic Scholarship

Deadline: July 31, 2023-Amount of scholarship $1,000

At BK Law Group, we believe in the importance of having a strong work ethic. Good things don’t happen by accident. Hard work, dedication, and focus create the best results! While this can take time, delayed gratification can truly be the most rewarding feeling in the end! Today, people often seek to finish something or see results as fast as possible. However, that usually won’t lead to the best feasible outcome. If you aren’t willing to stay disciplined and put in the work needed to fully see a project through, you can’t expect it to be at its fullest potential. Hard work doesn’t come easily. It is a product of forming good habits and having determination.

That’s why BK Law Group is thrilled to announce their 2023 Strong Work Ethic Scholarship! We want to hear from you about a specific time in your life where you utilized your strong work ethic. Tell us what the task was, how you stayed motivated, and what the outcome was. Tell us how the results would have been different had you not persevered through the entire task to see it to its completion. What motivated you to give 110%? We can’t wait to hear your story and about the hard work you’ve put into something that’s important to you! The winner will receive $1,000 to put toward their education!

Eligibility

A) The 2023 Strong Work Ethic scholarship is open to any current high school senior, college student or graduate student who is a legal resident of the United States residing in one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia and who is enrolled in a two to five-year post-secondary institution for the 2023 Fall semester.

B) Employees of BK Law Group, their immediate families (parent, child, sibling, and spouse), and persons living in the same households as such individuals (whether related or not), are not eligible to participate in the competition.

C) Candidates for this scholarship should have a minimum GPA of 3.0 or higher and be in good overall academic standing.

Application Requirements

A) The candidate must submit a 750 – 1,000 word essay in response to the prompt: Tell BK Law about a specific time in your life where you utilized your strong work ethic. Tell us what the task was, how you stayed motivated, and what the outcome was.

B) The candidate must submit a professional resumé that lists their experience, both professional and academic.

C) The candidate must submit an official or unofficial transcript from their current school. First-year college students, graduate students, or individuals who have recently transferred schools may submit an unofficial transcript from their current school, as well as the most recent official transcript from their prior school. High school students must also submit proof of acceptance to their college or university.
