Why apply for a Discus Award?

Paint-by-numbers? Hardly. You’re one of a kind. The Discus Awards put 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 a Discus Award 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
• Craft the perfect strategy for how to get into college
• Get a shot at winning a $2,000 college scholarship
• Connect with other high school students who mix and match diverse interests
• Be featured online in the Discus Awards Winners Gallery
• Take part in the only high school awards program that recognizes the all-around student

Being part of the Discus Awards hooks you into a powerful network of other winners, and you'll even have a chance to compare your interests to those of your fellow winners with an online "attribute map." Who knows? You just might meet another French horn player who holds a blindfolded free-throw record and teaches conflict management to first graders.
