Our Take
The Immerse Education Essay Competition gives students aged 13–18 the chance to submit an essay on a question that sparks their interest. Each year, we refresh our list of questions to encourage students to explore their favourite subjects in greater depth. With more than twenty options available in our Essay Competition Guide, there’s plenty to choose from. Ten winners will receive a full scholarship to study with us at a world-leading university of their choice, and outstanding runners-up will also be awarded partial scholarships.
