Highland Park, IL (PRWEB) August 30, 2007 --Seven lucky high school seniors will soon open their mailboxes to find a Scholarships.com check made out in their name. Each year, Scholarships.com awards $10,000 to the chosen participants in the Resolve to Evolve Essay Scholarship, and this year's winners have just been announced.

In an effort to address the issues written about by R2E entrants, Scholarships.com will also forward winning essays to appropriate authorities and/or administrators.
Each year, Scholarships.com provides two essay questions regarding current events about which entrants may write in hopes of being among the seven finalists who will receive a cash award to be applied to their education.
