Sub Pop Records would probably like to forget grunge music at this point, but the Seattle-based independent record label is best known for releasing Nirvana’s first album, among other early-’90s grunge classics. Grunge aside, Sub Pop may be writing a check for $5,750 to the college of your choice. They had an idea for a “Loser Scholarship” — that is, a scholarship for someone interested in music or the creative arts (rather than, say, football).
It’s a great idea, and it’s available to any high school senior … provided that you live in Washington or Oregon. Read all about it here.
The application process is a breeze — write a one page essay and submit links or copies of your work. Applications are taken by email only. Apply by May 1, so get going, kids!
