Bg Scholarship

I am confident that I am a highly motivated candidate for College of the Mainland’s Collegiate High School program. I want to challenge myself in my education as well as strengthen my character. Education is very important to my family as well as myself. I have grown to be much more motivated, focused, and determined in the past year. My grades have improved immensely, as I’ve personally realized how important and necessary it is in today's society to have a good education.

Last year I had the tremendous opportunity to receive the O’Brate Scholarship and it has indubitably influenced my college experience for the better. Let me tell you, college courses are a completely different ball game than those given at high school: with that being said, no longer was just going to class and listening to the instructor enough to get an A in the class. It required me to approach this new study regime with a more methodical and effective form of work and study. Practice and time has proven key to succeeding in the college world, but it doesn’t and shouldn’t take away the significance of being financially covered and stable throughout the year. The O’Brate Scholarship has been a pivotal component into making my college transition

Even after entering high school, the importance of keeping my grades up never occurred to me as it became a value to me. Along with keeping excellent grades, I was also involved in several school activities. Throughout my high school years, I presented extravagant academics, leadership, and community work. I was involved in National Honor Society, class council, student council, and blue crew all four years, which is a fan club that attends sports events to support our school’s teams. I also was a varsity cheerleader throughout my high school career. With being inducted to National Honor Society, I completed community service hours. My community service hours consisted of helping out Illini Middle School with their annual D.A.R.E. picnic, working concessions stands for my school’s baseball team, helping sixth graders prepare for their Iditarod, and contributing help at an American Red Cross blood drive. I believe I am worthy of this scholarship because the career path I have chosen takes an appreciable amount of time and money. Overall, I believe I deserve this scholarship because I have the potential to succeed in my career as I would be very appreciative to be awarded the

I have been a lucky recipient of The O'Brate Scholarship for two years now. I am Incredibly appreciative of the difference The O'Brate Scholarship has made in my life. The generosity of The O'Brate Scholarship is one of the primary reason that I have been able to finance and continue my education and experience the transformative experience that has been my sophomore year at Kansas State. My second year of University has been nothing short of spectacular and formidable. This year I have really strove to push myself out of my comfort zone. This was in due part because of The O'Brate Foundation

This semester I am graduating from Dutchess Community College with an Associate degree in Liberal Arts and Humanities. In addition to being offered a full scholarship, I was invited to join the honors program, which helped strengthen my writing and comprehensive skills through highly disciplined coursework.

I believe I deserve to be considered for the BG scholarship award because as a student and a young adult I’ve put in a tremendous amount of effort into everything I do to improve myself. With the money provided in this scholarship, I could further my education towards my goal of a communications major thus improving myself by advancing my education.

The William F. Bryan Endowed Law Scholarship was established to assist students who have excelled in their academic studies. As an undergraduate student at the University of Texas at San Antonio, I was recognized on the President's List or Honor Roll five out of my seven semesters. I then had the honor of graduating Magna Cum Laude with a double major in Economics and Management with an International Concentration. Because of my hard work, I will enter the 2016-2017 class with a GPA and LSAT score in the 75th percentile. The William F. Bryan Endowed Law Scholarship will greatly assist me in my continued quest of achieving academic excellence at St. Mary’s University School of

I wanted to formally thank you for awarding me the $5,000 Thomas B. Snover Scholarship!!! I cannot begin say how thrilled, grateful, and appreciative I am to receive this amazing gift.

My freshman year in college has been an amazing new experience for me, and I greatly appreciate the opportunities the Theodore Batterman Scholarship has afforded me. The transition from high school to the University of Wisconsin Whitewater was surprisingly smooth, and I quickly acclimated to college life. I was a part of the cross-country team from August to November, and had a great time traveling to surrounding areas to compete in races. Academically, I managed to make the Dean’s List for both the fall and spring semesters. During both semesters, I began to take introductory business courses, including micro-economics, financial accounting, and business writing.

Now that it is time to graduate from Calhoun Community College, I would like to transfer to Athens State University to continue my studies and earn a Bachelor’s degree. The same principles and dedication that I applied to my courses at Calhoun Community College will also be applied to my courses at Athens State University. I feel that I deserve this scholarship from Athens State University because of my dedication to my education. I have worked very hard from a young age to get where I am today, and this is what sets me apart from other applicants. I seek to use my education and my future degree to not only better myself, but to better the community around me. Granting me this scholarship would not only help me with that goal, but would also give me the means to pursue an opportunity that I would not otherwise have without scholarships/grants—which is to obtain a Bachelor’s degree, and to eventually go on to get a Master’s degree. If I am lucky enough to receive this scholarship, it will not be in vain; my education will be put to good use. Thank you for your time and

Throughout my application to Vanderbilt, I devoted time to researching merit scholarships.The Ingram Scholarship Program piqued my interest because it is not just a one time essay and receipt of funds. Rather, this program will unite me with peers who share my passion for community service throughout my four years at Vanderbilt. Finally, after reading through the website for this scholarship, I decided that the opportunities and community established by this program would significantly enhance my college education.

Receiving the Beverly E. Noble scholarship will considerably assist in the advancement of my academic career. Earning a college degree is valued greatly in my large family and I sincerely want to, not only be a good example to my siblings and younger cousins, but also feel the satisfaction of taking the necessary steps to further my education. Committing myself to my education has been prevalent since I started kindergarten and I do not plan on stopping any time soon. I have always loved learning and have been grateful for the wonderful opportunity I have had to learn and grow with this school system. In fact, my love of learning has turned into a passion and I plan to earn a degree in Education so that I may share it with the bright young

I won two scholarships for having clear professional and academic goals. I attended two institutions for my undergraduate. First, I fulfilled coursework requirements at Portland State University. Second, I went to Oregon Health and Science University for earning practicum credits. In addition to academic training, I have also gained experience in professional setting.

To promote the Gilman Scholarship, I will hold information sessions in various departments to students ranging from high school seniors to college sophomores. I will collaborate with organizations in which I already have a direct involvement. These organizations include NYU Alternative Breaks, NYU Opportunity Programs: HEOP, CSTEP and STEP, Opportunity Program Mentoring Initiative, Women of Excellence Strength and Tenacity, the Gentleman of Quality, and the Academic Achievement Program.

A college education has been my main goal growing up, and this scholarship would help make this opportunity possible. In the fall, I plan to attend Ohio State University and major in both political science and biology. After earning my undergraduate degree, I would like to continue my education and earn an advanced degree because my career goal is to become either a lawyer or a doctor. However, one of the most difficult challenges I will face as I earn my degrees will be how I can reduce the amount of debt I will incur. Therefore, scholarships like the Men’s Club Civic Involvement College Scholarship provide a means for me to help lower the cost of my education.
