Southern Illinois University Scholarship Analysis

As an undergraduate student majoring in General Agriculture at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, I have an extreme interest in the USDA/ 1890 National Scholarship Program. The United States Department of Agriculture has been the catalyst for assisting minorities to obtaining employment in addition to inspiring young professionals. The USDA/ 1890 Program will not only help me financially but also open doors for my future. Financially, college is very expensive especially out of state.

I feel that I am well suited for a career in dentistry. No matter how many years of schooling it takes to become a dentist, I think that if I set my mind to it I will be able to succeed.

Receiving a Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship would mean that I would get a chance to achieve my dream of being able to help others. What I like about attending IRSC is that I can fully dedicate my energy to getting my education because I know that all my classes are paid for, with the help of financial aid.

After I have spent several hours in dental clinics, I have no doubt in my mind that I want to be a dental hygienist. This relates to my mission statement because I mention I will keep my workplace positive and productive. I need to get a degree to get the job I want. By completing the Dental Hygiene Program, I will be able to have a positive, and productive work environment. My plan in achieving this goal is to be accepted into the program, then work very hard through the year.

In 2-3 years I would finish my education either at “George Brown College” or “Gorgian College” and hope to get a job position as a Dental Hygenist. By going on this path I know there would be a lot of challenges I would have to overcome and stress levels would rise from the work loads of work. I need to work very hard to accomplish this goal by doing the courses the colleges offer and to set high marks on them. I have to review my notes everyday and be prepared for next lessons. In order to be in the college I need to get the courses that is related to dental hygiene in high school and other mandatory admission requirements such as additional activities and many others.

As I have grown and worked extensively throughout my years in school, I have refused to allow financial struggles hold back my education. Being raised by a hardworking single mother, I was encouraged from childhood to believe that monetary adversities should not be given the power to mask a person's dreams. Rather, these adversities should challenge them to excel. Therefore, by constantly keeping my goals in the back of my mind, I have been able to maintain a 3.9 GPA. I know that with discipline and a drive to learn, my intent to become a successful dentist will not be bound by a dollar sign.

After I finished high school, I started to search for community college with dental classes. That’s when I heard of Tarrant County College (TCC) .I immediately ran to the school and applied as soon as possible. After a month or so I got a letter allowing me to start college, as I read the words hope raised up in my body. I asked my older sister Iftah, to help me get strategies for college because I was new to the idea. During August, me and my sister Iftah created a strategy list. For me to be a dentist I first need to complete a bachelor’s degree. Getting a bachelor’s required hard work and commitment. Saying hard work did not mean just slacking off it meant I had to have good grades and a perfect attendance.
