The Upromise Tuition Tales Video Contest gives students, parents, grandparents, graduates – essentially everyone – a chance to win money to help pay for the rising costs of higher education. In contrast to typical college scholarships, grants and loans, this contest adds fun and creativity to the college funding process. Contest participants can enter until May 3, 2009, on behalf of themselves, a family member or friend, by uploading a 30-seconds-or-less video clip on why they or someone they know deserve money for college. The public will have a chance to vote for their favorite video and help decide who wins. The twelve videos with the most votes will receive a $250 Bed Bath & Beyond Gift Card and a $250 Bank of America Visa Gift Card and enter the final voting phase, May 12-May 20. Three grand prize winners will each be awarded $10,000 for college expenses.
