The National Honors Society allows students to be build and create traits that are essential in a successful adult. I truly believe that hold many of these traits and joining the National Honor Society will grant me the opportunity to expand on these traits and grow as a person. Thus far I have focus greatly on the scholarship aspect of NHS and have been dedicated to my academics. I have held my GPA above 4.0 and have always been devoted to maintaining that high level of academic success. The skills I have shown in devoting myself to my academics can be easily translated into my dedication for the other aspects of leadership, service and character. Having previously held a officer role in the National Junior Honor Society I have gained experience

Beta Club provides students opportunities to serve their local and global communities through the donation of time, objects, and money. The planning for my personal service project began my first year in the club and has continued through this academic school year. Many of the projects in my school’s chapter of Beta Club serve the local community only and have no global impact. I began to search for organizations which work to benefit those in need across the globe and found Kiva. Individuals in every country can request loan amounts which are funded through micro loans by multiple donors. Loan requests range from agriculture and education to retail and food.

Being able to have anything you could imaging on your own pair of sneakers would interest many people. Your shoes will be an eye catcher and stand out in a crowd. If all of your friends have the same pair of shoes, and you want yours to be just a little bit different, with my help, that can be made possible. Because I enjoy customizing shoes, and I will need to have knowledge to own a profitable business, I am going to go to Germanna Community College starting next year. After Germanna, I will transfer into JMU’s exceptional business program, where I plan to get a business degree.

Texas A&M is my home. I am 44 years old and I have been a full-time employee of Texas A&M University for almost 10 years. Although it has taken me a long time to get to the academic level that I am now at, I have never given up. Even though, they encouraged me every step of the way I was not guided very well academically by my parents. Neither of them attended college, so they were unable to provide advice. Now that I have gained the knowledge and know what I want, I will continue to work hard on my academic journey until it is complete.

I think I should be offered the KISD Education Foundation scholarship opportunity due to my strong commitment to the fine arts and my desire to preserve them from the likes of public schools' budget cuts. The preservation of the future fine arts is a topic that is one of the most passionate for me to speak on due to my yearning to continue to spread its gift to new generation of students. Schools around the country continually attempt at cutting fine arts to balance school budgets, but this cannot be allowed to happen. The fine arts provide a creative medium of expression and passion for high students across the country, and, by providing me this scholarship opportunity, Killeen ISD will also have taken their own step at preventing these forms of expression from vanishing from our public-school system.

As a high achieving and dedicated student of Kilcoy State High School, I feel that I am worthy of being awarded an academic scholarship for 2017-2018. To address the basic criteria given, I am currently enrolled in year 10 and I intend to complete a QCE over 2017 & 2018. My school attendance has been excellent over the past 5 ½ semesters (two days absent total - approximately 99.5% attendance). I have consistently achieved A’s in all of my subjects over that period with the exception of one B in Year 8 HPE. These achievements can be attributed to my effort, persistence, commitment and dedication toward my schoolwork, both in class and at home.

High School wasn’t smooth sailing for me and my GPA wasn’t at its full potential. With senior prom and all my senior activities it felt as if time was slowly but surely running out. High school was some of my best years but I was dying to graduate and attend college and be on my own but in order to do so I had to score really high on the ACT or SAT. I was so nervous while taking the SAT and I didn’t do good as I wanted to, feeling defeated I studied really hard for the ACT. Even though I studied the butterflies when I entered the room where the test was being administered wouldn’t go away but I did feel more confident. I took the test and waited days for my results. I was so excited that I scored a 24. I learned that if you put your mind to something you will succeed every time. I took full responsibility for my future and I planned on having a bright one. I felt as a weight was lifted off of my shoulders. After receiving the good news I applied to a total of four universities and I was accepted by all of them. Even though I applied to different schools my dream college was to attend Louisiana State University. Unfortunately LSU’s nursing program is not like an average nursing program. Sadly their nursing program is not located on LSU’s campus

Robert Frost once wrote, “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood and I, I took the one less travelled by and that has made all the difference. As a young, educated, black man I have already chosen to take the road less travelled. Life is a journey where you stumble and fall, but I elected to not become a negative statistic. While in high school I decided to start my college education early in the pursuit of bettering my mind and proving to my ancestors that their plight is being well-respected.

To become apart of a community that impacts the whole earth and its inhabitants is very important for me to do. I am choosing to further my education at Colorado State University because of the opportunity it will give me to become apart of the natural sciences community.

I believe natural science is vital to human, animal, and plant kind alike and should be taken seriously for the sake of the Earth’s future. At Colorado State University I want complete an undergraduate degree and then continue on to the Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences in hopes of becoming a veterinarian.

Being accepted to Auburn University is the greatest remarkable event that has happened to me in the past few months. There is something drawing myself to attend Auburn University and I remain unable to decipher it. I consider myself a worthy candidate for a scholarship as I have abundant leadership skills and I want to become an improved person. I reside in Georgia and that makes me an out-of-state resident and that will increase my tuition; I do not need this situation to stop me from going to my dream school. I love this school to the extent that I just did not bother about all the other schools that I have applied in since I already acquired acceptance in the one school I am interested in attending. Also, I have always liked the idea of

I believe that I was a very successful student in high school. I participated in various different activities, was part of student council, and I excelled in my classes as well.

However, there was one thing that I wanted to do as I stepped towards the next part of my life: I wanted to earn my degree without any help.
