CHICAGO, Sept. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Fastweb introduced today the full roster of student writers for the 4th Annual 2015 Student Contributors Program. Fastweb (www.fastweb.com), the leading website for scholarship and financial aid information, is a member of the Monster network.

The Student Contributor Program, entering its fourth year, is an article series, which brings insights from students' perspectives on meaningful topics within student life. Multiple categories are highlighted in the series through high school, college and graduate student content. Contributor articles have a wide variety of topics, including the college admissions process, standardized testing, study tips, college coursework, student life experiences, and applying for scholarships.

Fastweb welcomes back five returning members and five new voices. Returning writers include: Laura Magerkurth, Maya Moritz, McKenzie Nevins, Bailey VanNatta and Jaime Vincent; this group is joined by Riley Harrison, Aggie Kallinicou, Sonja Killebrew, Ashley Paskill and Madison Sheldrake.

"We are proud and excited to kick off another year of our Student Contributors program," stated Mark Nelson, Fastweb's Managing Product Director. "Fastweb continues to support students with the best tools and information available, helping them with difficult decisions related to their education. The content authored by fellow students experiencing similar issues provides valuable insights."

An outreach campaign began in June 2015 to find worthy student contributors. Fastweb members specifying an English, Writing, or Journalism major were notified of the opportunity to write for Fastweb. Interested students were then asked to provide a brief personal summary, as well as a 250-word writing sample on a topic relating to their experience with the scholarship, financial aid, or admission process.

Get to know this year's talented team of Student Contributors and read their current articles on Fastweb.
