The Skechers Paws for a Cause Design Scholarship is open to students currently enrolled in the first year of a two-year program at an accredited institution or the first—third year at an accredited four-year institution. Students must be at least 18 years old and in good academic standing. This latest fun and weird scholarship IS for the dogs...and the cats...literally. You may have seen the BOBS by Skechers shoe designs covered with cute animal graphics; this scholarship opportunity is tied to those fun shoes. College students have the chance to design a shoe featuring a canine and/or feline where the winning designers will earn a $10,000 scholarship from the footwear company. The winning designs will be featured on BOBS merchandise, and some of the sales will go to Petco Love to help animal welfare organizations. Your dog or cat print could help you pay for college AND save the lives of shelter animals in the United States!

- Provide a brief written or video description of your design. Be sure to share your best shelter-pet memory or what the BOBS from Skechers collection means to you. Since 2015, Skechers has given more than $10 million to help save and care for 1.9 million shelter dogs and cats through a partnership with Petco Love. For each BOBS item sold, Skechers makes a donation to Petco Love. Petco Love’s network includes 4,000 animal welfare organizations nationwide.
