• Be a resident of Ohio.
• Be accepted to or currently enrolled in an accredited college, university, or graduate program within the United States.
• Have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher.
• Demonstrate good character and high initiative.

Requirements

• A current high school, college, or graduate school transcript (unofficial copies are acceptable).
• A letter of recommendation from a teacher or faculty member.

Design Specifications

Designs must be a horizontal image. Each submission must be the original work of the participants. Please prepare designs as .PDF, .TIFF, or .EPS files in CMYK color @300 dpi. Designs must include the KNR Bullet or KNR Stacked logo. Logos may only be used in the original colors or black & white. Do not skew, crop, or change logos in any way other than proportional scale.

The Plan

Thousands of fatal car accidents are caused by distracted drivers every year, and driver distraction is responsible for more than 58% of teen crashes. Your billboard design should highlight this issue and demonstrate how to prevent distractions behind the wheel.

Applicants are encouraged to be as creative as possible to convey their ideas, but the design must be appropriate and practical for use as a billboard ad campaign in Ohio. Please send any supplemental materials to [email protected].

By submitting your ad, you are giving us permission to use it for promotional purposes on our website and social media channels. We may edit your ad for length or content, but we will not alter the essence of your message.

Our panel will review all entries and select the winner based on originality, creativity, and effectiveness in communicating the message.

The scholarship must be applied to tuition and other education-related expenses. A check will be made payable to the recipient’s educational institution directly. You are expected to submit any receipts to remain in compliance with the IRS.

Completed materials can be submitted by any of the following methods:
