Law students can compete to win a $10,000 scholarship by making a video about their law school worries.

The One Less Worry contest, sponsored by the nonprofit student loan company Access Group, is open to anyone enrolled as a law student as of Aug. 1, Legal Blog Watch reports. Students should upload their videos of no more than four minutes in length to this YouTube page before June 15.

“We know you have a lot of worries,” says Access Group in its explanation of the contest. “Studying. Clerkships. The bar. Professors. Time management. Your finances. The good news is that we can help you with that last one—to the tune of $10,000.”

Access Group will choose 10 finalists based on creativity, humor, realism, quality and overall appeal. Then the public votes, and the maker of video that comes out on top by July 1 is awarded the scholarship. The contest rules bar material that promotes bigotry or harm.
