The graphic shows a big white bubble that says, "Walter Grant Applications Now Open!" in big bold letters. Beneath the text are three clipart illustrations of people writing at their desks. The first person has long black hair and is wearing a coral colored cardigan as they write on loose leaf paper by hand. The second person has dark brown skin, short black hair, and is wearing a gold-striped polo shirt as they sit at their desk, writing by hand. The last person has long brown hair tied back in a pony tail and is wearing a red sweatshirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbow. They're sitting in front of their bookshelves and referencing several pieces of paper around them as they sit at their desk and write by hand. At the very bottom of the graphic is a neon yellow banner that says “closes on August 14th, 2024!”
