Personal Narrative: My Educational Journey At Montclair State University

With this letter to you, I urge you to please hear me out and help me. I do not have the money to attend UCONN because of my family’s financial situation. The aid I received was a blessing and gave me the opportunity to follow my dreams and make my parents proud. It was the main driving factor for me going to UCONN as I pay for school myself. I had worked all summer and had planned to take whatever the difference was once financial aid was factored in and pay for it with my hard earned money, but now I will not be able to do that because of a miscommunication with my father and my mental illness. If I am granted financial aid, I will do whatever it takes to overcome

I am writing to you to explain why I am in immediate and dire need for funds that will assist me in continuing my college education at NAU. As a first generation college student, I have always had to rely on FAFSA and other types of financial aid to continue towards my degree and dream of becoming an educator. However, since I have completed my associates towards my degree in my hometown, half of the journey has already been completed. On the other hand, the other half is about to start, where I need not only more monetary funds to pay for university fees and tuition, but living expenses as well. I will be moving from my hometown to near-campus student housing, where there will be food and room

I've been accepted into the graduate program Human Service-Social Service (Liberty University). However, I'm in need of fifteen-thousand and two-hundred twenty-five dollars. The funds will be for college tuitions and textbooks.

Traci is a student in the fall semester at Tyler Junior college. She is from India and still very new to the American Education System. English is not her first language, but she is extremely grateful going to college in America and having her childhood dream come true. After all, her green card is still in process and she is unable to get a job or get any kind of funds to help her with her education. She has to pay for all her expenses out of her pocket, which is very difficult, given her current financial situation. Fortunately, Tyler Junior college offers an installment tuition fees, which helps students like Traci to go to college. She depends on the library for the reserve textbooks without

In the 2013 fall semester, I entered Bronx Community College to pursue Dietetics and Nutrition Science, and by grace, I successfully graduate with an Associate in Science (A.S.) degree. Base on my dream, I already took all the nursing prerequisites courses. The prerequisites courses that I took are Introduction to Psychology, Introduction to Sociology, English Composition I and II, Anatomy and Physiology I and II, Probability and Statistics, Human Development, General Chemistry I and II, Microbiology and Infant Control, History and many more.

Financial assistance is needed to help me meet my short and long term educational goals. At this time, Gardner-Webb University is my college choice. Gardner-Webb is a private school that better meets my learning style, as opposed to a larger state university. I feel that this college is the right match for me and will provide better opportunities to get involved and fulfil my spiritual needs as well. My involvement with sports, clubs, and summer camps has prevented me from working part time throughout high school except for the payment I receive for one week of camp during the summer. I also chose to take more challenging classes which required more time for studying. Therefore hindering me from contributing to my educational fund.

Although just about everyone will say they cannot go to college without receiving scholarships or help financially, most of the time this statement is exaggerated to make the seem more desperate and give them higher chances in getting the scholarships they apply for. However, I believe that I really need this scholarship in order to afford and pay for my college tuition. This is because I am not the only person in my family that will be leaving for college this upcoming fall. Both my twin sister and I will be going to college at the same time and hopefully we will be attending the same university as well. However, having two people to pay for is not the only problem, for it is harder to get financial aid where I am from. Living in Northern

When my Lawrenceville admission letter arrived in my mailbox early March, I was suffering from stomach butterflies and tremors purely because of my excitement. And when that fateful letter congratulated me for my acceptance, I nearly broke a hole through my house ceiling in celebration. The letter entailed me to view an email which contained my financial aid grant, which covered all costs for me boarding there, which surely made my mother happy. However, I then realized that my generous financial aid package would mark me up

Imagine that you are a teenager trying to become an intelligent, respectful, and mature young man. While you are in High school you are a phenomenal student and will be graduating as Valedictorian, with the benefits of being able to go to any college that you choose. Only to have your dreams shattered when you find out that you can not afford your college tuition.

It is unfortunate to hear of your financial hardship, and we hope that we may assist you. There are two different options that you and your student may have. The first option is for the student to complete the Need Analysis Review form. This form will allow our office to reevaluate the student for additional financial aid. Documentation will be required, to substantiate your claims of hardship, and we cannot guarantee that we will change the students package. In case we are not able to change the student's financial aid, you and the student should consider applying for a Direct Parent Plus Loan at www.studentloans.gov.

Coach Hansrote had looked long and hard for a scholarship that would fit my needs. She found a Board of Governors renewable scholarship that would give me 2,235 dollars per semester and it would help me pay the rest of my bill for my entire freshman year of college. She also got me into the Trio program which helped me purchase my textbooks as well. She doesn’t see it more than a coach helping one of her players but I saw it as an act of compassion that put me on the right track to my future. She is the majority of the reason why I am able to attend school today and play the sport I love. Without her selfless act, I would probably still be back in Reading going nowhere with my life. But now I have the chance to make the best of the chance I’ve been given. I plan on repaying her by doing everything I can to make sure that I succeed in all things here at Mansfield

As the cost of education increases, many students search for assistance to help cover that cost. That form of assistance could come from burdensome financial aid or a scholarship that provides the student with an education free from debt. That’s why I am writing you today Mr. Alan Hall on behalf of the Student Scholarship Committee, bellow we have outlined the (1) the benefits to the student, (2) the benefits to you, and (3) how you can take action to help.

Financial stability has been one of my greatest adversaries throughout my educational endeavors. Pursuing my degree in Education has been like swimming against the current. There have been many setbacks, plus I'm no Olympic swimmer. I come from a single-parent household. My mother works three jobs to get by. I work three part-time jobs, however, because of the rigorousness of the education program I am in, I work minimal hours. The program will become increasingly demanding; this will reduce my opportunities to work more hours in order to afford college. I find myself sometimes having to choose between good healthy meals for a week or paying my phone bill and car insurance, but who needs vegetables when inexpensive fast food chains are down

If you think your educational expenses are more than you and your family can afford, you should apply for financial aid using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You will need to apply for financial aid every year by completing a FAFSA. The FAFSA includes all the information necessary to determine your eligibility and must be completed if you want to be considered for any of the federal programs
