Lizzie from Khan Academy Reminder: Enter to win a $250,000 Scholarship

Hi EmailTuna EmailTuna,

It's not too late to enter the Breakthrough Junior Challenge - in fact, previous award-winning videos were created in the final days of the Challenge! So start brainstorming now and remember, the deadline to submit your video is June 25th. Don’t miss your chance to win a $250,000 college scholarship.

We’re proud to partner with the Breakthrough Junior Challenge video contest again this year. Students ages 13 through 18 are invited to create a short (under three minutes) video explaining a challenging concept in physics, mathematics, or the life sciences in an engaging, illuminating, and creative way.

This year, there is a special topic on Space Exploration, and students are encouraged to share their passion on the science of exploring the Universe.

If you win, you’ll receive the college scholarship, your teacher will receive a $50,000 prize, and your school will get a new $100,000 science lab!

For more details, check out Sal surprising last year's winner as part of the official launch video for this year’s Breakthrough Junior Challenge:

The videos made by the past Breakthrough Junior Challenge winners have collectively been viewed over 8 million times teaching a global audience about science and math in their own voices.

The winner will be presented their award alongside some of the world's most inspiring scientists at the Breakthrough Prize ceremony and on Facebook, and YouTube.

Good luck—we can’t wait to see your video!

Onward,
Sal and the Khan Academy team
