I feel I am a great candidate for this award. I without any doubt will follow through and achieve the goals I not only set for myself but also the goals and responsibilities of being chosen to receive such an honor. I have a passion for learning and a strong focus on my education. I have no distractions to disrupt my growth in this journey. I want to succeed and give back to those along the way, this scholarship and any other will give me the missing piece that I need to continue on my path. My professors and family will continue to support and encourage me along the way I will never be alone in this journey. There is no challenge I will face that I can’t overcome. I have learned in the last year and half of Community college how to
I believe that there are many reasons that I am well qualified to receive this “Courage to Grow” scholarship. One main point would be my excellence in leadership and community service. I currently serve as senior class Vice President and President of the Future Teachers of America club at Auburn High School. I am a class representative for our Student Council and am very involved with the children’s ministry at my local church, serving as a Kids Camp counselor and VBS assembly leader. Another reason I believe I should receive this scholarship is for my outstanding academic achievements. I have been inducted into the National Honors Society, Spanish National Honors Society and the Mu Alpha Theta Mathematics Honors Society. I have also received
After graduation of my high school, I’ve decided not to attend college. I spent over three months preparing for college admissions. Over three months of studying for the SAT and writing essays for colleges. But, all this hard work was blown away in just a week. The week before the May 1st, the decision day, I had made my decision not to attend college. I have decided to return to my country and start working. Of course, there was a strong disagreement from my parents, but I didn’t hesitate. For the past years, I have worked in many different kinds of places and I have faced the true reality. This made me want to attend college and brought me to Concordia College.
Over all, I believe I embody the type of person this foundation is trying to help through this scholarship. This scholarship would mean the world to me and my family, it would help me achieve all my goals and dreams. I am confident that I am a Strong Candidate for the HSF Scholarship, and I believe I am very well rounded in all aspects of the requirements. Thank you for conserving my
I believe in the value of nurses, I believe I will one day be a nurse just like those I now admire, and I thank this scholarship for also believing in my potential as a future nurse.
While I wish finding my way around the school was my only problem, I was faced with some internal challenges. As the school year started, my friends slowly started to leave to these “big shot” colleges or simply move away to other community colleges. I, too, wanted the complete “college experience” somewhere in Arizona or across the country; yet I felt stuck and unaccomplished. I also felt jealousy which could have been because I did not get to decorate my dorm room.While talking about dedicating hard work to your education, Gina Rodriguez said “Just remember, during those times of fear and doubt, that you are right now discovering your true strength.” And in those times of doubt, I reminded myself why I could not just move and leave everything behind. The root of my challenges and concerns are my family. As I enrolled as a full time student, my family was fighting some financial problems which created marriage troubles for my parents. I could not leave at a time like this. I knew it was not the first time my parents were talking divorce but somehow I knew it was best to stay. I got financial aid from the school which saved me the fuss of asking my parents for money. It really meant so much to not put another worry on their
As someone who has always admired the prestige and character of the National Honor Society, I am honored to have received a nomination. I view the National Honor Society as a very noble organization comprised of hard working, intelligent people committed to giving back to the communities that have helped them realize and reach their potential. I believe that both the program and I would benefit by the contribution of my skills, values, and leadership.
Driving back to North Carolina, I was disappointed. My excitement about college went away. But, as soon as I got home, I started at Central Piedmont Community College. I was not given up. I am a Chemistry major and have no time to
College has a extensive impact on a person that some people simply don’t realize. When I first started college, I was a little close-minded and unsure about what it was I wanted to do with the rest of my life. When I was halfway through my freshman year, I decided to completely change my path in life. I left ECU, moved into an apartment, transferred to Pitt and declared my major intended sonography. Then suddenly I hated what I was doing, I had to take a step back and truly evaluate my life and what it was I was meant to do. I was completely lost. Then one day I received a text from a friend telling me to apply to a hospital located in Chesapeake, Virginia. I did, and I got the job. When I told my parents they were less than thrilled, they didn’t like the idea of me taking a year off from school to work, but I thought long and hard about what was best for me and decided it was something I was meant to do, it was the path I needed to follow. I worked for a year while living at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. I was completely independent, providing for myself 100 percent. While working this job, I realized that what I wanted to do and what I was called to do in life was become a nurse, which is something I would have never figured out had I not seriously weighed my options
A humanitarian is a person promoting human welfare and social reform. In other words, to be a humanitarian is to care about life and help make a change for the betterment of life in general for the general populace or even a specified group that required the help. "The Humanitarian award was created to recognize outstanding individuals who dedicate their time to fighting indifference, intolerance, and injustice." ~Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity. My humanitarian nomination helped and continues to help my family in big ways.
Teamspeak I am very active in teamspeak I have had in for a long time and I have used it as staff for a long time. Recording I know this isn't really a great reason for why I should be chosen but I thought it would be good to add this to my application. First I have a youtube channel I don't record that often but I do record all the bans and all the hackers that I catch. I think I should be chosen for this reason because I will never false ban anybody always have both.
Describe the factors or attributes you feel make you a deserving candidate for this award. I feel as though I am very deserving of this award because I have worked very hard to keep my grades where they are at right now. Also there is not that many scholarships for student who are not freshman or transfer student. If I were to transfer to UTA right now with my current grades I would get the automatic scholarship that transfer students get if they have a 3.5 GPA. I think I have made great academic progress in my time here a UTA, and am only going to continue to get better, for this reason I believe i am a deserving candidate for this award.
This scholarship is especially important to me because it will aid me in furthering my education in college in order to major in accounting. Since early on in high school I always had an interest in math, numbers, and creating spreadsheets. The foundation for this began as I helped my parents put together expense sheets and financial documents. I also helped my dad put together inventory reports, price lists, and PowerPoint presentations for his job. My interest in the accounting and finance field especially grew when I took the Business Computer Applications classes. Throughout these classes I learned many skills that can apply to accounting and working for a business in general. At the end of these classes I ended up certifying in four of

When I first enrolled here at State University, I never thought I would ever be in the position to graduate. Finishing college was a huge goal growing up but it was also my biggest fear. But after three and a half years of dedication I plan to get my degree in the fall. Getting this far in college was not easy, it took encouragement from family, dedication, and assistance from others to reach this position.
Have you ever dreaded the fact that you are going to college in a few months? Do you get nervous even thinking about college? Are you afraid that you won’t get in? Are you telling yourself that it won’t happen? Don’t be afraid of starting a new chapter in your life, because you will find what you’ll good at. College is scary for everyone when they first apply, or start their first day of school. People can be afraid to leave their home, because that’s where they have been for eighteen years. The fact of it is, you don’t have to fear the fact that you are doing something good in your life. The three most important things in my life, are family, learning, and getting a degree.
