Personal Narrative: My Adult Life In Significant Debt

Now that I’ve covered why I financially need this scholarship, let me explain why I have earned it. This past year has been a whirlwind. I ended my junior year with 34 credit hours, 20 of which were earned second

I deserve this scholarship because I am hard working and it wouldn’t be a waste of money on some dumb teenager and because my parents don’t have a lot of money, but I also deserve it because I want to go to college to be a police officer and protect the american people, change how police officers are looked at and so I can serve justice to people who deserve

I understand that my family and I are not living below the poverty line or fighting over bus fare, but this scholarship will still greatly benefit me. When my sister filed the FAFSA, she was not given an extraordinary amount of money. She had to take out loans to pay for her education. My family and I cannot afford to take out any more loans. In 2014, we lost our house due to foreclosure. For two years, every penny we earned went to our savings account to save up for a house. When I was fourteen years old, I had saved up five-thousand dollars for college. I decided to give the money to my parents in order to buy our house. I am a senior in high school, and I have not managed to recoup my money. Meanwhile, my parents are tied down to a thirty-year mortgage. In addition, my grandfather, who lives in Mexico, has been diagnosed with depression. My parents have been sending money over there in order to pay for his care and medicine. Trying to find the right treatment for him has made money a bit tight in my household.

Please describe your reason/interest in attending Marshall University. I am attending Marshall University because it truly feels like this is the school for me.

As my senior year comes around, it has become more real to me that I have to take charge of my future. I deserve and need this scholarship just as I need oxygen to breathe. Being the first in my family to attend college or even have the idea in their head means I’m on my own to discover what to do to get into college and how to come up with the means. I

Going to college has been a dream of mine growing up. I am the first ever in my family to go to college but figuring out how to pay for it has been a challenge. I desire to achieve my academic and career goals and this scholarship can help me succeed in my journey.

A heavy Debt What I wanted on summer vacation made me end with a heavy debt on my shoulders. The debt that I haven?t paid off yet to my dad. Buying the PC was a good idea, but I messed it up myself. Last school holiday I had the bright idea to buy a PC, PCs are strong, easy to use, and reliable. I am a guy who wants to experience all fields of gaming, when some people like calm and relaxing games. Others might like driving, sports, strategy games, or some action. For me, I try all types of games, so to do that I have to get myself a PC, and what?s cheaper than building one yourself (at least what it?s normally like).

We would like to bring to your attention our strained financial situation. The FAFSA does not accurately depict our family financial situation and the ability to contribute to Zachary’s college expenses.

This letter is to propose settling my debt in full. I have been through difficult times with my personal finances. My husband is unable to find a job, I had a kidney transplantation and the medications cause a lot of money, and I have to take care of my mother who has a low back issues. As a result, I haven't been able to make payments on my debts. However, I understand it is my responsible to take care of my debt with your company. I would like to avoid filing bankruptcy. I really appreciate your willingness to help me resolve this issue.

I plan to pursue a career in the dental field. I wasn't set on this area when I was a child, I came to it later when I was going through different professions in the medical field. I thought I would enjoy doing it, and after shadowing at a dental office, I liked the work atmosphere. Also, there will always be a need for people in the medical field, I believe I need this scholarship because I am going to be paying for all of my college expenses, apart from what I will receive in grants and scholarships. My parents can't help me with much financially, especially because I have an older brother already in college who is finishing his second year. Also, considering the length of the program I want to pursue, I will need all of the help I can

Jamaica is not just white sand beaches and mimosas. Behind the thin veil of paradise lurk corruption, violence, and inequalities. Life & Debt illustrates the daily realties of Jamaica following IMF structural adjustment programs. IMF reforms have perpetuated a cycle of debt that Jamaicans have little hope to escape. Although IMF conditionality claims to develop nations so that they can grow and re-pay their lenders, Jamaica is still indebted $4.5 billion dollars and has little development to show for it.

The bulk of the film focuses on how global integration has undercut
