Description
We are so excited to announce the recipients of the 2015 Wattpad Scholarship. Their outstanding stories were selected among over 500 entries from students across the U.S. and Canada, and they will each receive a $1,500 scholarship for their studies at college or university this fall. Students were asked to write a true story about something that has impacted their life and helped shape who they have become. We were touched by so many of the entries, we included the recipients' stories in this compilation, as well as some of our favorite Honorable Mentions.
