EJ Eaton Scholarship Analysis

I believe that my academic strengths, leadership ability, and appreciation of those who are different from me make me a great candidate for the Jefferson scholarship.

As a member of four national honor societies, I believe my presence in those organizations has made me a good candidate for the College Scholars program. I was invited to the National English Honor Society, Rho Kappa (Social Studies National Honor Society), National French Honor Society, and National Honor Society. All four have enhanced my academics, social skills, and intuition. In the National English Honor society, we are challenged to utilize our writing skills for the betterment of our community. Our main project this year was creating little messages that promoted suicide prevention. We would then attach the message to a knitted heart and hang them all around our school. Rho Kappa has gifted me with an appreciation for the United States

Growing up, I have always loved to help people in need, so when I entered high school I put all of my focus towards medical classes. My experience with medical classes were amazing. I performed so well that I was able to pass the Clinical Medical Assistant Certification exam. When it came to choosing a college, I had originally planned to leave Laredo to study pharmacology. However, to my surprise and joy, I found out that TAMIU started to offer the degree plan of my choice, so I decided to stay in Laredo and attend TAMIU. The Oscar M. Laurel Scholarship will be a huge help to fund my tuition, books, and gas. Coming from a middle class family, I understand that every cent counts and this scholarship will be a great help to insure my

The Coastal Bend College Endowed Scholarship Application will be the second scholarship I have applied for because I didn't think about college until my second semester of my senior year when a coach said “you’d be perfect for this job”. After I heard that statement I started looking into studying kinesiology and asking questions about their experiences. Ever since then I have been wanting to become what I think of them, which is a hero. I want to help kids achieve their goals and become someone important. I understand coaches do not get paid a fair amount, but I am willing to accept this fact. To me it is about graduating college and doing something I know I will enjoy for the rest of my life.

I believe that I qualify for one of the scholarships the Wilson class of 1945 is awarding because I am a hardworking student who commits to all opportunities and advantages presented to me. I am very thankful that the dedication and diligence I have applied to my education and extracurricular activities over the past four years have afforded me with the opportunity to attend Charleston Southern University where I have been awarded one the highest university scholarships of $52,000. This university scholarship has allowed me to see my dreams and goals in a new light for the first time and believe that they are truly possible and that there are people who believe me and my dreams just as my family does. Receiving this scholarship from the class

Everything changed for me my last year of high school. Like most seniors I was busy applying to colleges, studying for tests, volunteering in the community and trying to figure out what I aspired to be when I grew up. I thought I wanted to be an Interior Designer and I traveled with my parents all over the country touring colleges that offered the major. I achieved good grades in school and I was accepted at several of the schools I applied to. Once I decided on a university I began my search for scholarships to help fund my education. By chance I ran across an audio scholarship contest sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW). The essay topic was about the importance of Veterans to our past and future. Because I was a military dependent this topic was near and dear to me. I worked really hard on my submission and to my surprise and my parent’s delight; I was selected as the winner for my state. The opportunities I experienced as a result of representing

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

My first year at the University of Alabama has been a great experience. I am majoring in Chemistry with a current GPA over 3.9. My ultimate goal is to use this degree and the knowledge I obtain to become accepted into medical school. By awarding me the Steven V.

This past

Being awarded the USA National Alumni Association Freshman Leadership Scholarship would have a benefit me in my academics, activities, and leadership. I have applied for more than twenty scholarships, and have yet to be awarded one, however, this scholarship could change all of that. Academically, this scholarship would allow me to pursue my dreams of becoming a physical therapist without having to break the bank. This scholarship would also allow me to reach my goal of completing the physical therapy doctorate program with no debt. This scholarship would allow me to be more focused on my school work and less worried about the financial side of attending such a great university. My activities in college will also be positively affected by

I am honored to be one of the recipients of the Tracy Scholarship. Thanks to your generous support, I will be able to achieve my goal to attend Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Throughout my life, I have been taught to work hard for the things I wish to achieve. My ability to persevere and perform hard work has been a blessing that I am continually grateful for. Because of the many challenges I have been able to persevere through, I have gained a high appreciation for the value of a college education.

July 25, 2016 at 7:45 p.m. I went to check the mail and right on top of the stack was a letter addressed to me from Oklahoma State University. It was my acceptance letter. I ran home from the mailbox screaming because of how excited I was. I had wanted to go to OSU and follow in my parents footsteps for as long as I can remember. My dreams were finally coming true. The next step for beginning the rest of my life was applying for scholarships. Receiving the OSU Alumni Association Scholarship would be a tremendous honor. Not only would it make my time at OSU more affordable for my family, it would make my time there more worthwhile.

There are many prompts for college admissions and scholarships, however the question I would ask for a scholarship application is “Getting a college education is important to many people throughout the world. Discuss why education is important to you and how have you applied your education to real-world scenarios? Keep in mind you can reference either past, present, or future events when applying your education.” The reason this question is important and the question I would ask is because many people have the capability of learning new information, however they can often struggle on how to apply that knowledge.

I am currently a high school senior, I attend Booker T. Washington Early College High School. I want to be a successful teacher and an entrepreneur. To accomplish the goals I set for myself I will need a college education and it is very expensive. I think that I am deserving of this scholarship because I am an honest conscientious hardworking student who would be extremely grateful for such an opportunity.
