Being able to have anything you could imaging on your own pair of sneakers would interest many people. Your shoes will be an eye catcher and stand out in a crowd.

Upon graduation from high school with an above 4.0 GPA and a 28 ACT score, I received the Wildcat Excellence Scholarship from the University of Arizona in the amount of $6,000. Among the friendliness, location, and pristine medical reputation, this scholarship was a large reason why I proudly chose the U of A for my undergraduate studies, because without the financial aid there was diminutive chance of being able to afford a college education. During my first semester freshman year, I struggled with common ‘teenager problems’ (low-self esteem, peer pressure, etc.), but there was also an added weight: I graduated high school at the age of fifteen, and it was at that time I left home for university life. While academically, I seemed prepared enough for this challenge, emotionally I was still only barely sixteen,

As a high achieving and dedicated student of Kilcoy State High School, I feel that I am worthy of being awarded an academic scholarship for 2017-2018. To address the basic criteria given, I am currently enrolled in year 10 and I intend to complete a QCE over 2017 & 2018. My school attendance has been excellent over the past 5 ½ semesters (two days absent total - approximately 99.5% attendance). I have consistently achieved A’s in all of my subjects over that period with the exception of one B in Year 8 HPE. These achievements can be attributed to my effort, persistence, commitment and dedication toward my schoolwork, both in class and at home.

The fourth value enumerated in the Oregon State Police Officers Association’s mission is “to foster and maintain, among members of the Association, the highest standards of professionalism and devotion to duty.” A devotion to duty has become more to me than actively perform one’s responsibilities. What I believe has molded me into the young man that I am today is that I have set a precedent of service in my life so great that I want my entire to be devoted to it. Service has become the act that benefits and advances all people with the talents that I have been granted and in the ways I am trained to do, and I am in the process of dedicating my life to this continual form of duty.

Coming into UNF in fall of 2017 I will be a transfer student. The choice to transfer wasn’t hard at all. I was born and raised in Jacksonville and miss home terribly. After not being happy at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Florida I knew I needed to move back home to Jacksonville and finish up my degree at the best school in Jacksonville, which happens to have a good exercise science program. I chose to transfer UNF’s Exercise Science program because I miss home, but also because I have heard great things about the program from former and current students.

“Congratulations, you have been accepted to Rutgers University-New Brunswick.” These words were, to me, the words of accomplishment and pride. However, these were not the only words Rutgers University wrote to me. In the Fall of 2015, I was an incoming senior at Hunterdon Central Regional High School. Excited about the years ahead, I applied to many schools throughout the United States. I applied to two schools in Alabama, two schools in Indiana, two schools in New York, and only one in New Jersey-Rutgers. My initial goal was to be my own person and go to a University that no one in my family had attended. In fact, my goal was to attend Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. This was a dream because my closest grandfather had planned to go there to study engineering. Being a bright student, he was accepted with a scholarship. Getting ready to leave to form a new beginning and only a few days before graduation, his father passed away. Unable to go from New Jersey to Indiana knowing that his family needed him, he decided to stay home and run the family tile business. Years later when my twin brother and I were born, he was God’s blessing to us. Growing up without a father, he stepped in to fill the gap. As

I am a currently a Junior, at Warren New Tech High School, and I just started my second semester. I am a hardworking student, who likes to maintain her academics, as high as possible. I used to always get A and B Honor Roll (Freshmen and Sophomore year), but so far this year I have been able to make Principal’s List, this was during my first semester. I am really hoping that I will get accepted into North Carolina State University (NCSU), it’s considered as my top choice and they have a really significant Agriculture Program. I know how important it is to actually get a scholarship, when you are applying these top colleges, especially if you don’t have a resource for that kind of money. I have gotten very interested in working with farm animals, and I have started my own farm (just chickens now, but more animals will soon come). I also work part-time at a reality, here in North Carolina, on the lake with my

My passion for sustainable development was influenced by father. As a garbage truck driver, he would take me to the San Diego Waste landfill and show me the negative impact waste has on the environment. Despite his broken English, third grade education and limited understanding on sustainability, this experience motivated me to continue my education and become an advocate for sustainable changes in my community.

She feed my vain for the art. Even though her religion, she professed Adventist of seven-day religion, didn't let her go to the cinema, she always found the way to took me to the cinema. She and I enjoyed watch movies. We used to sit in the darkness room, with our faces illuminated from the reflection of the light which rebooted from the screen, both absorbs in the plot of the movie which made us laughed or cried. After the movie, while we went back to her home, she started to talk about the movie. She had a particular point of view where the main story

All my life I had grown up watching and loving most sports. I played my fair share of baseball and the occasional pick-up game of football and basketball, which all surprisingly came easily to me, but it wasn’t until the summer before freshman year that I truly found the most challenging and rewarding sport. This sport was like no other. It required more than just hand-eye coordination and speed. This sport required thinking, patience and endless practice, something a successful Penn State student also needs. Because golf challenged me more than any other activity, I had to work twice as hard. However, along the way it taught me valuable lessons I learned to translate over to my everyday life.

Scholarships have always been a mandatory aspect of my college career. As an undergraduate student at Texas Tech University, I was solely responsible for paying for my tuition and I applied for as many scholarships as I could find. Working throughout the years was necessary so that I could afford my tuition. While my parents wanted to help me, they were not financially able to. One of my sisters currently attends Texas A&M University and my other sister will attend college in 2 years. Because of this, finances in my home have been tightly spread. In order to return to school to receive my Master’s Degree, I will have to apply for loans and scholarships once again.
