Receiving this scholarship would be beneficial to my education and career path in many ways. I come from a single income, middle class family, and unfortunately means that college is not a viable option for the future of either myself or my family. I have my mind set on attending a four year college, preferably University of North Alabama. This is crucial to my long term goals of becoming a Physician's Assistant or a Pharmacy Technician. Going to college would be a great achievement because I would be the first of my immediate family to attend college. My mother and my father both barely graduated from high school and attempted to pursue further education, finding little success. My brother, who is a year older than me, had intentions of going to college, though he quickly decided he would be unable …show more content…
I am currently second in my class of eighty six. My unending involvement in both my school and my community have given me many valuable skills which have greatly improved not only my intrapersonal skills, but also my character. I hold several leaderhip roles, including President of the National Honor Society, President of Mu Alpha Theta, Captain of the Danceline, as well as holding a place on the Montevallo Marching Troubadours’ leadership committee. I am also active in WDOG/ SPOTLIGHT, Diamond Dolls, the archery team, Science Club, Pep Squad, as well as volunteering at the elementary school every summer. I take great pride in being a passionate member of the Church on the Rock youth group. Additionally, I am employed as part time secratary for Precision Craft Inc. As you can see, I am a very dedicated student and I have worked hard my entire life to get to where I am. I am not one of those sudents who just cruises through school; I spend countless hours studying and reviewing and striving to be the
I, Hope Turnbull, am a Senior of Stockton High School in Stockton Kansas. My plans consist of attending North Central Kansas Technical College starting Fall 2016, where I want to begin my study of nursing. Due to me having all of my general education courses finished upon my college arrival, I have been accepted into the first year Nursing Program (LPN). I believe that I deserve this scholarship due to me excelling in my education at a very young age. My grades are earned as A’s and B’s in school.
I would benefit from this scholarship because not only would it help with the cost of my tuition, but the support will also help lessen my worries about my finances. This scholarship will help my parents as well since they are helping me with my college education. During the past two months and currently, my dad has been in the hospital due to having pancreatitis. In August when he was introduced with it, he went into septic shock and that day he had coded seven times. It is a miracle that he is with my family still, and with the support of this scholarship, it would help out a lot due to the medical bills that my family has. As in the past, I will work
I aspired to play a significant leadership role in all of the activities someday, and over the course of my high school career, I thankfully have. This year as a senior, the student body elected me as the president of Student Council; members of National Honor Society (NHS) did the same; future business leaders elected me as the vice president of Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA); and I received the votes to secure the office of secretary in the local Future Farmers of America (FFA) chapter. Coaches and teammates have named me as an important asset as well. Over the years, these opportunities have presented me with many chances to enjoy extracurricular involvement, meet new people, and mature into a
In a world where most college freshmen do not graduate or dropout, i feel like it would mean to much more to me to graduate and be able to say I got my degree. studies have said that half of freshman will not complete there degree, another study said that 25% of freshmen will change their major before they finish their sophomore year. If i was given this scholarship money it would put me in a place where hopefully I won't become just another statistic. Another reason a college degree is important for me to achieve is so that i will be respected in my work industry of choice. When you are in a place of work, there is always someone who everyone looks up to because they know the most about certain things, but more often than not that person has the highest degree in his or her field. If I was awarded this scholarship i would be more capable of being that person because i would not have to worry about leaving school to figure out how I will pay off my
With all of the downfalls that I have experienced in my academic and personal life, a college education will make it possible for me to continue my journey into becoming a prestigious corporate lawyer. I have the drive for success and I am certain that with this scholarship I will be able to pay off my debt and help my mother with her own educational goals. I was content that I was able to encourage her to attend school and I am most fortunate to be given an opportunity to help both her and myself achieve our ultimate goals for the near future.
I am a responsible and mature person who ensures that work is complete in the most efficient way. I believe that education is the very first priority and a necessity for a well rounded future. I plan to continue my studies in higher education so that I can succeed in life and others around me. My leadership skills underscore how I am a man of integrity and how I value assisting others. This is proven through the high role of Presidency taken in the National Honor Society. I have done many things to benefit the community which includes painting the school bleachers, raising money for a local organization, and upholding the school's tutoring program. Not only do I support
This scholarship would help me be able to afford going to college and getting a doctrine in Psychology. Having this scholarship would mean I would not have to take a loan or could take a smaller loan to pay for collage. Loans, especially school loans, have caused many individuals to be in debt. I do not want to graduate college and already have an enormous amount of debt to try and pay off. Collage is expensive especially for a one income family. My mother has no savings at all and barely makes ends meet each mother. This year she had to file bankruptcy so she did not lose the house. There is no possible way she could help me with college. Getting this scholarship would lessen my mothers worries and give me peace at mind knowing my education is payed for and debt is not looming at my door.
I am applying for this scholarship to help me pay for college. As everyone knows it is very expensive and sometimes hard to pay for all the things involved. My family is doing everything they can to help pay for my college. One of the biggest obstacles we have faced is applying for the FAFSA. My parents do make a lot of money, but they both have student loans they have to pay. My mom has two majors so she has a lot of money to pay back to school. While applying to FAFSA, these factors are not taken into consideration so we did not get as much money as we had hoped. If I am selected to win this scholarship, it would be greatly appreciated and would help me in many ways to continue my education.
I am a year thirteen student at Eirias High School and I am currently studying four A levels; English Language, Applied Science, Geography and the Welsh Baccalaureate. I am confident and bale to carry out and complete tasks on time or to a deadline. This has helped me in my subjects because both Applied Science and the Welsh Baccalaureate contain a lot of coursework and deadlines that need to be met.
...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.
This scholarship would greatly help my family and I. It would help me greatly because I am paying for my schooling by myself, and it would help cut down all my other costs for my family. I pay for my schooling out, but my parents pay for just about everything else. I try to make straight A’s in school, work as much as I can, and help out my neighbor as much as I can. It would help cut costs for both of us. I pay for my college education, while my parents pay for almost everything else in my life.
My intended goal after graduating from high school in just a couple of months is to be enrolled at Santa Ana community college where I will be taking my general education classes, and enlisting into a nursing program in order to obtain my associates degree in nursing. After completing these course I plan to transfer to Cal State Fullerton, where I will obtain my Bachelor of Science in nursing degree, to complete the requirements need to major as a Registered Nurse. Winning this scholarship will allow me to peruse my dreams in a way that it makes it easier for me and my family to pay the debt that will be included. I am the oldest out of five and I know that having to pay for my education and needs will be tough, therefore if I win the scholarship I will be able to help them out, winning the scholarship will allow me to be an example for my younger siblings as I will be the very first person in my family to go to college. Which will serve as a motivation for them to follow the same pathway of
Writing an essay as to “why I deserve this scholarship” gives way to the option of me writing a very factual and boring essay consisting of monologic sentences stating facts such as I volunteer my time in numerous places throughout my community such as my parish, my town, and all three of the honor societies I am apart of at my school which are the National Honor Society, the National Spanish Honor Society, and the National Science Honor Society. I could say that I have surpassed two-hundred documented and verified service hours since I began high school. I could go on to say how all these experiences have been rewarding and make me extremely happy knowing I made a positive impact in the lives of my community members. I could say I work extremely hard in school. I could brag about the fact that I take numerous AP classes, the hardest math and science classes North Hunterdon High School offers such as AP Physics

In order to understand the tremendous impact this scholarship would have on my education, one must know a little background on where I come from. When I was 3 years old, my parents left their pasts in Bolivia and sacrificed everything to come to America, the land of opportunity, so that I can have a successful future. As a kid, I witnessed the hardships my parents went through to provide a roof to live under and food on the table every day. Some people may call me lucky to have the privilege of growing up in the 2nd richest county in America with such a great education system but, they have no idea the sacrifices and hard work my parents had to endure to get me where I am today. Therefore,
