Why apply for Discus Awards recognition?

Paint-by-numbers? Hardly. You’re one of a kind. The Discus Awards puts you in the spotlight, so you can get where you’re going faster. You could even get a college scholarship to help you achieve your dreams. You already have passion, talent, and personality. Applying for the Discus Awards is your next smart move if you want to:

  • Share your passions—and inspire others to get on board
  • Prove you're the kind of multi-talented student colleges are looking for
  • Get a shot at winning multiple college scholarships
  • Connect with other high school students who mix and match diverse interests
  • Be featured online in the Discus Awards Finalist Gallery
  • Take part in the only high school awards program that recognizes the all-around student

Being part of the Discus Awards puts you in an elite class with other Finalists, and you'll even have a chance to compare your interests and achievements to those of your fellow winners in the Finalist Gallery. Who knows? You just might find another French horn player who holds a blindfolded free-throw record and teaches conflict management to first graders.
