My education and the knowledge that follows it will become the basis to my future as an adult. The decision to choose a career path and begin to build your future is a crucial moment in every young adults life. After twelve years of school and studying, it is assumed that the time allotted would be plenty for me to choose which career is right. Based on clusters of enjoyable classes and keen skills developed, as a student, I thought I would be able to imagine what major I would like to pursue, but to my surprise I'm more confused than ever when it comes to my future career. In my time spent in school, I enjoyed various types of classes unrelated to one another. Some of these classes included American government, Theatre Arts, Psychology, and Spanish. All of these subjects were activities and subjects that I enjoyed taking, but I could not find a major/career that would incorporate all of these subjects. Although I don't know what major I want to pursue, I do know that I wish to receive the highest level of education possible. If at the end of my academic journey I am fortunate enough to receive a PhD, I will consider myself accomplished and best able to help society. I may not know how exactly I should help the society around me, I do know where I want to end up. I was hoping that through the rouse program, I could start the journey of finding out how to use my personality and skills to find a career I am passionate about. Through the program I hope to have a plan as to how to complete the rest of my higher education. With the help of the professors and counselors I know I could excel in this great program for talented and gifted students. I wish to attend the rouse program to not only excel academically, but individually as well.... ... middle of paper ... ...rther our education. As next year approaches, I worry that the financial load will only get heavier as my brother and I start college. I believe that with this scholarship I will have the ability to study freely without financial restraints holding me back. With the support of my family and hopefully the Rouse Program through this scholarship, I plan to reach my academic goals and get the education that I treasure so much. The money I receive will fund my future as I get reach my goal towards a better education. Whether I decide on law or medicine, the money I hope to receive will financially secure my decision. Hopefully, within the first two years of college I will discover which major I will pursue and prepare for the next chapter in my education. I hope that the place where I find myself as a student is at Howard Community Collage among the Rouse Scholars.
Last summer I volunteered at a local hospital for a total of 136 hours. At the end of the summer I received an honorable mention award for being a dedicated volunteer who is highly respected around the hospital. Furthermore, I've been a committed volunteer during this school year. I have also been an active member of my school's HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America) chapter; this March I will be competing in a medical terminology competition against members of other HOSA chapters across the state. Additionally, I am a devoted member of my school's academic decathlon team. Finally, I have been a member of CSF (California Scholarship Federation) for the past two years.
As a child I did not know a lot about college. None of the adults in my life had been to College, my family did not talk about it, and it seemed like a distant land that I heard about only in movies and on Television. I was first introduced to college when my third grade class took a field trip to Iowa State University, clearly a much needed field trip considering my lack of exposure to higher education. I was immediately amazed by the grand architecture and massive buildings. I had never seen anything like a University campus before. The few things that I remember about the trip were that everything was big, the college students played with us, and we got to swim in the pool. While the larger purpose of the field trip may have been lost to my childhood excitement of getting to swim in a big pool, the field trip did mark the beginning of my knowledge of higher education and from then on I always viewed it as something that I would be a part of eventually, even if it did seem like a very distant future at age eight. As I grew older I developed other reasons for wanting to attend colle...
Throughout high school I have dreamed of having the opportunity to attend Indiana University. I have a true passion for babies. I love to learn how babies are developed and how they become such an amazing part of the world. Therefore, I would like to apply to Indiana University and pursue a degree in Pediatric Nursing. I would love to be able to deliver babies and deliver new life into this earth. There are several opportunities available for me to get involved with new leadership opportunities. I want to be able to be a leader for all age groups.

The fact that I’m searching for an international education is the proof of my desire to establish myself as a global citizen and my interest in the world issues.
San Diego is home to many hardworking individuals who diligently work during the week and long for their days off to visit the many attractions the city has to offer. Whether it is heading to work or going to Balboa Park for a family outing, San Diegans are conscious that MTS is there to ensure they arrive to their destination in a convenient and timely manner. Being California’s second largest city, San Diego is vulnerable to frustrating traffic during rush hours, yet people are slowly recognizing MTS’s efforts to alleviate this issue and ensure that not only arrive to their destination on time, but do so efficiently; cost is not an issue and the routes are well-planned in effort to avoid traffic. People often think badly of public transportation; MTS has become an exception since it has been invested in creating a positive experience for both San Diegans who use the transportation system on a daily basis or those who ride a single bus once.

Choosing a career path that is right for you can be the most crucial decisions you make in your life. Not only is making the right choice important for the present, but it is especially important for your future. When choosing a career it is valuable to consider things such as growth potential, monetary benefits, strengths, weaknesses, and your happiness. By doing that it will help clarify the benefits and tradeoffs for each opportunity you are given. That being said, making such a weighted decision that will impact the rest of your life can be nerve-racking, extremely scary, stressful, and outright frustrating. However, making this decision is not impossible and can become less complicated if you are given the right tools. Gathering information

Intro Deciding what you want to study during your college career can be a difficult and tedious task. This is due to fact that many young adults coming out of high school are unsure of what they want to do or what path to take career wise. It is also tedious because this requires that these individuals have to constantly try and explore new avenues so that they can find their passion in life. The path I chose to take when coming out of high school was entering the business school at Howard University.
Getting this scholarship was my jump start to furthering my education and I knew from there that I was going to prove statistics wrong. I knew I was going to college and that things were going to be different for me and I was going to make a difference. I won’t be the black kid who drops out of school, because my education is too important to
I want to evolve as a person, and I believe UCF’s diverse environment is what I need. I was fortunate enough to tour the theatre department in the fall, where I was given the chance to follow a stage-management BFA student for a day. Experiencing the campus atmosphere as if I were already a student brought me a calm confidence in my decisions. Theatre has been in my life for a long time because I wanted it to be, and I would love the opportunity continue my journey at UCF.
Since attending East Duplin High School, I have faced many obstacles, late night homework, and family issues that just add on to the stress of being a student. I have enjoyed my high school, but I can’t wait for what college has to offer me. However, have reached the recent dilemma of needing financial aid for college. I believe that i deserve the Mill Swamp Community Club Scholarship because I have worked hard throughout my high school career, I have grown up in the community, and with the money I plan not only to better myself, but bring back my knowledge from college and apply to my home community.

When it comes to choosing what career to follow, colleges offer many different major, minors and electives to choose from. Students get to choose what classes they want to take, whether it has anything to do with the career they want to pursue, or if they want
I realize that many other students applying for this scholarship will have great academic records and may also be in clubs like myself, but I believe that I will be able to put the scholarship money to good use and not waste a cent of it. The one thing that sets me apart from everyone else is that I appreciate anything anyone does for whether it is helping me up when I fall or if my friend lends me a small amount of money and does not want it back. It is sad to see when people get scholarships and fail classes or will not try as hard because they did not pay for it out of pocket. I will always try hard in college whether or not someone gave me money to assist me or I paid for it myself. I realize how valuable money is and I will never waste
