Video Games: Esport and Scholarship.
Apparently, video games are called the new form of sports – Electronic Sports (Esport). If you are good at Esports and want to get higher education paid for, then Southern New Hampshire University can possibly help you. “The university will begin offering Esports scholarships to new and current students of any major in fall 2019 ” (Wheeler, 2018). I am sure it will be fun to play games while competing with others online. The university has also announced that it will also provide “gamer specific” housing (SNHU, n.d.).
So grab your bags and turn the T.V. on. Who knows you will be paying your college fees with the money from Esport scholarship.
