Becoming A Scholarship: A Jumptart In The Financial Aid Department

I was always taught that I must work hard for everything I receive, I believe now is the time to show all I have worked for. At Gulf Coast I plan to obtain my Associate degree in Dental Hygiene. I am assiduous for this scholarship because during my years of high school I have worked hard not only in the classroom but at my job, sports, and clubs as well. Coming into high school as a Freshman I

On the topic of success, receiving this scholarship would not only benefit me financially, but it is an honour to be awarded such a prestigious and valuable gift. Scholarships such as this recognize the dedication and hard work applied to all aspects of a student's life. I believe I have shown my commitment to my goal of helping people and my determination to succeed in my chosen career through my work and volunteer experiences. These include my time volunteering as a teacher's assistant, practicing in the hospital as a student phlebotomist, and working numerous jobs to pay for my

It is a duty that I graduate college with an abundant education so that I can help my family, sustain myself in life, and be affluent within society. Receiving this scholarship will definitely place me in a powerful position to become a step closer towards accomplishing my first career goal of becoming a registered nurse. The process of applying to college has been very strenuous on my mother and I. Unfortunately; I wasn’t one of the students to receive full scholarships from colleges or grants. My mom and I had to apply for loans, which she later got denied for. The stress of worrying about being admitted to college and receiving some financial aid has caused some disappointments. However, I am determined to receive an education and apply

The ability to receive a scholarship to finance my education would significantly decrease the financial burden I will place on myself as well as my family. A scholarship would allow me to focus on my studies instead of my financial situation. Any award that helps lessen the financial burden of my education would greatly motivate me to pursue my education with uttermost focus and determination. When opportunities are given to me I never want to disappoint; a scholarship would make me work harder than ever and make myself worthy of the award presented to

Receiving a scholarship will impact my career gravely, not only will this help me to continue my studies, but it will also help me in my studies, so that I may not stay focused on the money aspect of things. While being in college the thing to stress about the most should have to be studying and staying on track with your assignments, but money plays a huge part in a college students life. We have to be aware of how much money we are putting into our career and not get behind on bills, but in trying to keep up with those bills, working long hours at a minimum wage paying job, trying to volunteer and studying, we, or I as a student get very overwhelmed from time to time. So, receiving a scholarship will be load off of all the stress I put on my shoulders on a daily basis. Not only is it a stress reliever to receive a scholarship, but it also boosts ones self esteem.

I know I can achieve more and I will push myself harder than I did last year. I cannot allow myself to give up due to the financial challenges I face. This is the reason why I am applying for this scholarship. I know that the field of study that I have chosen can one day change this world. Since many difficulties in human society are often connected to the interaction of genetics, behavior and environment, it is proven that an animals’ behavior can help save this world from a disaster. I truly believe that my research and the mind that God has given me can one day have an impact in the world. Having an education and faith in God is the only way I can continue to believe that I can make a difference. I know that I need to be knowledgeable to be successful in this society and I want to obtain the most information I can throughout school. This scholarship will help me push through any other hardships that I face in the future because I know that if I can get through this, I can get through

This scholarship would help me affirm that my hard work is being recognized and rewarded. Therefore, I would be incentivized to continue my education with the same amount of passion and interest. Getting the scholarship would show me that aiming for academic excellence and achieving that goal is valued and will not go unnoticed. Another important way this scholarship would affect my education is by easing some of the financial burden of my college tuition off my parents. Frankly, it would also make me feel happy knowing that my own achievements helped pay for part of my college fess. This would encourage me to keep pursing my interests in higher education like getting a master’s degree. It would also make me feel less guilty for pursuing a

I have always dreamed of making a larger difference in my community by helping others to recover from their illnesses and by pursuing a career in the medical field, but I have never truly had the chance to do so because of my limitations. Being the youngest in my family, I have many older sisters to look up to and to learn from. I have learned from their successes and failures and created my own opinions based on the knowledge that I gain. A scholarship would allow me to gain insight in the field of healthcare to put me on the path of doing greater things. Furthermore, it would open up many opportunities to me and allow me to put my best foot forward by being a leader. If I do not receive a scholarship to attend the program, I believe that

Becoming a recipient of the Potomac Health Foundation Fellows Program will make my accomplishments possible during my journey to becoming a medical doctor. Receiving this scholarship will be an example that help is always there for people like me who are willing to contribute to create a better world. The money that I will receive from the scholarship will help me to overcome the financial obstacles that I face in college. I will have the funds to cover the college expenses. Becoming a recipient of the scholarship will also give me an opportunity to reach my service out to those in need by volunteering for more hours.

There are thousands of high school seniors that plan to attend post­-secondary education after graduating. Most of those students are not financially stable to get through school, so they apply for scholarships. Scholarships are the ultimate goal of any student gain, this is less money taken out of pocket or less money needed to borrow loans. Attending college has always been a goal of mine. The idea of being able to meet different types of people and learn new concepts in such a unique place, allowing for me to grow and identify myself excites me. However, money gets in they way of that and with millions of scholarships in the world, it would not take anything for me to apply. This scholarship will benefit me by helping to pay for my education,

Honestly, I was never the smartest student in school, but I've never failed or given up on my studies either. I admit I've made many mistakes and wish I had done a lot better to improve my chances at a good college. When I saw this scholarship was available, I knew if i'd I'd be able to less burdensome on my family. Both my parents work six days out of the week to help pay for all our living expenses, leaving me to take care of my younger brother. I am the eldest child in my nuclear family and I believe is my responsibility to accomplish greatness for my future. I want to be able to give back what my parents give to me everyday. I am so grateful, even if I don't act like it. This scholarship would really help me let my parents know that. It

Receiving this scholarship would help me focus on school and athletics throughout college. I will be playing golf in college and this will help eliminate the stress of having to work certain hours a week in order to make ends meet. Others around me will also benefit as I won’t need as much help financially. Getting through college with as little debt possible is a huge goal and this scholarship will help achieve that goal. College is supposed to be an incredible experience, meeting new people and creating new memories all while getting an education. Not worrying about finances would help the experience immensely and would make life after college more enjoyable as

Furthermore, with my educational goals considered, I know that it might become difficult to pay for my education. However, because I have the potential to succeed and make a contributing to the world, I believe that I am a fine candidate for this scholarship. My high school years have displayed exceptional academics, leadership, and community work. All of which, are essential components to living a successful life. One can be certain that an individual with these qualities surely has discipline and devotion to their

I, Ladaisha Samone Ballard, am a sophomore at East Mississippi Community College. I am 19 years old and I plan to attend The University of West Alabama in the fall. With this being said, I am beyond honored to know that I will have the Grade Point Average that will stand out. I feel that I should be awarded this Scholarship because I have overcome every obstacle that has come my way. Hard work, determination and motivation made me stand where I am today. I must say it has not always been easy trying to keep my grade up. As I completed each semester through school, I have realized failure comes with trying to succeed. I am the only person in my mother’s household that attends college, so this is pushing me to higher my education. I come from

I am aware that in order to qualify for this scholarship, like many others, I must qualify financially. However, you are looking at what my parent’s income is and not my own. In life I will never be judged based off of who my family is or how much they make, so why should I be judge off them now? I will only be judge on who I am and what I have done, which is what I am asking you to do. My parents are not the person applying to scholarships, nor are they required to pay for my college education. I am fortunate enough, that they do help me afford my college education, but they are by no means able to paying for it all. I have had a job since I was 12 years old and have put away half my pay check my entire life since the very first one I received.
