The Ohio Attorney General’s eighth-annual Take Action Video Contest gives Ohio high school students the opportunity to learn about consumer protection while creating a short video for the chance to win college scholarships.
The top three winning individuals or teams will receive college scholarships of $2,500, $1,500, and $1,000, respectively, and their videos may be featured on the Attorney General's website.
To enter the contest, Ohio high school students (grades 9 through 12) must produce and submit a 60-second informational video on one of the following topics:
- Imposter scams
- Cybersecurity
- Importance of checking your credit report
The deadline to submit a video is Dec. 9, 2016. Winners will be announced in March 2017 during National Consumer Protection Week.
