best and brightest high school students in an original, new, one-hour
unscripted series that will send the winner to a top-rated university,
all expenses paid. Filmed on location at the University of Southern
California, “The Scholar” will be the first show ever to celebrate higher
education as the ultimate American prize.
For the chance at a full ride to the college of their choice, ten
qualified high school seniors -- who might not otherwise have
an opportunity to attend one of America’s top universities –
will compete for a full scholarship, a prize valued at $250,000.
They will have to demonstrate excellence in the areas of academics,
leadership, creativity and community service, while facing
sudden-death oral exams defending themselves to an Ivy League
scholarship committee.
