There is this college scholorship that I will be applying for but the problem is that there are nine other students applying for this college scholorship and only one can get it. I am applying for a sports medicine scholorship at Texas A&M in the next two years after my senior year. Now I don't how I am going to beat all nine of my other peers for this scholorship but I will be trying my hardest to get this scholorship.
Now this scholorship will be a college scholorship in the field of sports medicine and it will be for the University of Texas A&M and will be starting in the year of 2016 as a four year scholorship that is equal to eight semesters. Sports medicine is catagorized in the medical field and what these people do is subscribe medicine and other medical products to athleted in all sports and all ranges NFL (National Football League), High school, and etc. These sports medicine doctors make lots of money about 200,682 a year now thats a lot for a doctor I think. I need this scholorship and I will do anything to get it. I need it because I didn't make the grades in high s...
Along with all my extra-curricular activities, I still manage to find time to accomplish my homework and achieve a high grade point average. Currently, my GPA is a 97.889. I constantly work harder and harder to maintain my grades and continue to challenge myself every year by scheduling difficult classes. Even though travel soccer is all-year-round, I make it my priority to uphold my high grades. With many stresses over the overlap in soccer schedules and studying for school, I make a list of assignments and follow my schedule in order to have time to participate in both. As proof of my scholarly achievements, I have received Distinguished Varsity Scholar Awards for both my freshman and sophomore years. I persevere to progress and maintain my grades so that I can accomplish more when I go to college. My ambition is to become a doctor and I know that I can achieve this feat as long as I stay steadfast in my education. From my years of schooling, I have learned that achieving great things comes with hardships, perseverance, and
Thank you so much for allowing me to be one of Babbitt Men’s Club Golf Scholarship winners at the 2016 Graduation Banquet. I have been enjoying school, learning advanced and intriguing new information at Mesabi Range college, and meeting new people. I plan to attend Mesabi Range College for another year; during this year I will be obtaining an LPN diploma to become a Practical Nurse, having graduated this Spring with my Associates Degree. One of the prerequisites for this program is acquiring a CNA certificate; a nurse’s assistant certificate. This course is 4 credits and I will be taking it in the Summer semester. I plan on using the money from the Babbitt Men’s Club Scholarship to pay for this class, taking the first step towards my career
Acceptance into medical school is highly competitive (1). Medical school is also very costly and 80% of students borrow money to cover their education expenses (3). Students must submit transcripts, scores from the Medical College Admissions Test, and letters of recommendation (1). Most schools require an interview with the board of admissions (1). The first two years of med...
Four years of hard work on my undergrad is only half of the journey. When I get accepted into a medical school the workloads will get even more challenging, a decision that I hope I will not regret along the years of hard work I have accumulated. I want to become a doctor because the feeling that I get when I have helped someone’s health get better is a reward itself. I don’t need the payment for that. I lied, making $300k a year is also a nice benefit of being a doctor in addition to making my patients feeling better and seeing their progression improve. The money is nice nonetheless, but I will have genuine care for my patients rest assured. I honestly hope money will not change the way that I am in regards to my care. I aspire not to become that doctor who just chases after money, that doctor who views his patient’s face as a source of income. Also, coming from an immigrant family after the Vietnam War, my expectations entrusted onto me are the dangling weights on my shoulder. My dad used to work two jobs, 18 hours a day in order to put food on the table and a roof over our heads for my family. He worked in those circumstances for ten years before he received a manager position at the Wynn. My parents do not have everything, but have worked around to give me everything I have ever wanted. I feel that it is my obligation to do the same and return the favor by studying and becoming
Triple impact competitors are athletes who work hard to improve the teammate's performance, lead their team to success, and make the game better. I think I meet the minimum standards of joining the Triple-Impact Competitor Scholarship since I have been performing well in my classes and more importantly leading my teammates in my discussion group in the right direction. In addition, I have been working so hard to grow as a person both physically and mentally since I joined my school team. However, I made sure that I balance between my academics and athletic life because I believe both are equally important to guarantee the successful experience. I meet the standard of making myself better since I am ready to participate in games any time, as
I have desired to be in the medical field since my freshman year of school. Like a classic stereotype I wanted to go into the medical field after watching too much television, in particular Grey’s Anatomy. It was not the drama or love affairs that drew me into the profession but the adrenaline on a surgery coming in. The skills which they possessed to save a person’s life, and the relief of the family when the doctor was able to tell them that their loved one was going to be alright. Yes, I do aspire to go into surgery, specializing in either trauma or general. This goal is achievable, but it will take many years in college and medical school then residency. This scholarship, the Anderson Hospital Auxiliary
In regards to my academic and career goals, I plan to attend a four year university and eventually medical school. After medical school, I hope to become an orthopedic surgeon through residency and specialize in sports medicine. My interest in sports medicine has developed through experiences such as observing my father’s ACL surgery, having an operation on a broken hand, and caring for my grandfather who had prostate cancer. I hope to contribute to the world of sports medicine through research, either on treatments for knee ligament tears or supplement breakthroughs. Additionally, this past summer I spent most of my time at the University of Pittsburgh Health Career Scholars Academy, where I was able to explore various science-related health professions through lectures and gain insight on the medical field. These experiences have secured my interest for healthcare and medicine.
The subject came so naturally to me and I decided to continue my enrollment in sports medicine courses throughout my high school education. As my senior year of high school concluded, I explored the idea of a career in physical therapy by job shadowing at the Idaho Sports Medicine Institute (ISMI). After observing the PTs at ISMI, I was immediately drawn to a career in physical medicine. A few months later, I started my education at Idaho State and felt exactly like I did when I started sports medicine in high school. I was absolutely enthralled with my classes, naturally excelled in all of my coursework, and always had PT school in the back of my mind. I knew I would have to work extremely hard to develop a strong undergraduate transcript and build a competitive application. Throughout my undergraduate career, I have worked relentlessly to maintain academic excellence and currently have a 3.91 GPA. I have also succeeded in making the College of Education’s Dean’s List for five semesters. Unfortunately, I did not receive the honor of making the Dean’s List on one occasion, as I was .02 points below the minimum

When I go to college I want to go for a degree as an athletic trainer. I love all sports so I think being an athletic trainer would bring me closer to the sport. I have chosen two schools that I am planning on going to OBU and SAU. Whichever one I go to I have to do four years of college. An allied health professional who works under the direction/supervision of a licensed physician to provide health care to athletes. The roles of an athletic trainer are prevention of injuries, recognition/evaluation of injuries, management/treatment/disposition of injuries, rehabilitation, organization and administration. The things that athletic Trainers have to provide are, on site evaluation & treatment for the injured athlete, immediate first aid care, follow-up rehabilitation care, health professional resource person available to athlete, specific conditioning programs for injury prevention. An athletic trainer can get paid a median salary of $39,600 a year. That is working for $19 a hour or less. Just working on the 10th percentile can see a salary of $36,500 or less. That is about working for $16 hours or less. However the people that are working in the 10th percentile make $49,200 per year. That is about $24 or more an hour. For me to get in to OBU I have to have five biology class which include, Zoology 4, Anatomy & physiology I 4, Anatomy & physiology II 4, Histology & micro techniques 3, Additional upper level biology 7 (no plant-based courses). I have to take two chemistry classes, General chemistry I or Introductory chemistry 4, General chemistry II or Introductory chemistry 4. I also have two take to physics classes, Introductory physics I 4, introductory physics II 4. I have to take two psychologies, General psychology 3, Psycholo...
The stipends, available at most of the country major sports programs, range from about $2,000 to $5,000 a year, although some schools are reportedly offering a few thousand more than that. That may not sound like a lot, but that's real money for students from
Winning this scholarship would not only give me the privilege of attending school without a financial burden but it will also give me a sense of security. I can honestly say if I win this scholarship it will give me an extra push towards fulfilling my dreams. I believe that motivation and determination is the key to everyone’s success. My motivation comes from the thought of impacting the lives of thousands of people through medicine and the many successful people that I am surrounded by. I believe that the career goals I have chosen will allow me to be successful, and that is
To reach my goals i need to apply for scholarships before deadlines and keep my grades high so it can have a positive effect on his transcript. To make the grades i want i have to turn in all my assignments and not get below a c average in any class. I also need to do volunteer work at local hospitals around the
However, my sophomore year of college, I was at DePauw University in a pre-medical fraternity. I went to a conference in Orlando for my fraternity and I listened to a speaker who went to law school and found out he absolutely hated being a lawyer. He had no time with his family, he was overloaded with work, and he was missing out on a great deal of his home life. I got to thinking about my goals and realized I had been too involved in my goals of being a doctor to think of the rest of my future. Family is important to me. I want to go to my kid’s games and be able to have dinner with them every night, even if that means I won’t make as big of a check. I talked to my pre-medical advisor about my concerns and she suggested that I should look into the route of being a nurse or physician
