College costs money, everybody knows that. But did you know that duck calling can help you pay for it? Yeah, freaks! Your weird talents and odd part-time jobs can actually float the bill for four years expensive Uni. Do you apply for and of these weird scholarships?

  • Can you call ducks? Are you a high school senior? If you answered yes to both of these questions, you might as well start traveling down to Stuttgart, Arkansas. To earn this money, you have to complete four calls (hail, feed, mate, and comeback). There are four winners, with the prize money ranging from $500 to $2000.
