UNF Scholarship Essay

The foreclosure crisis is the second major financial dilemma of the twenty-first century. To solve this, the roots of the problem need to be dug up and exposed followed by replanting with an appropriately improved regulatory system to help build stronger roots for the future. It seems that the free market system can't be free anymore given its intertwining roots extend way beyond domestic to international financial systems. There are two fundamental causes to the latest credit crisis: 1) poor quality securitized mortgages and 2) insufficient underwriting for credit poor borrowers. Secondary (downstream) problems making the financial crisis more complex include underemployment and business failures. Many banks,

As a goal oriented young adult, I aim to express my motivation to apply for the Valencia College foundation scholarship. As a college student, I thrive on the challenges and obstacles that I encounter which allow me to continue become a successful scholar. My family for one, are the main source of motivation, which allows me to continue to excel in school. My past work experiences, also allow me to push through to my full potential in continuing my education.

I am interested in the profession of athletic training because this profession would allow me to work with athletes and help them recover from injuries so they could continue their passion in sports. Encourage my disabled father to walk by executing some exercises that I learned including my knowledge of anatomy and physiology inspired me to seek a career that involves physical activity. I felt working with active individuals suited my personality. What motivated me the most to pursue a career in athletic training is the opportunity to help people in need, and working in a setting that I enjoy and that is sports. The athletic trainer is essential for the team success because without them most players would end their career after an injury.

Like most young boys I grew up idolizing sport heroes, racing kids on the playground, and playing sports outside. My teams were the Cowboys, the Astros, and later on in life the Aggies. Consequentially, if you didn’t love Jeff Bagwell and Craig Biggio than I didn’t really like you. Although most of these decisions were made based upon my brother’s sport interest, I learned to love them in my own way. After all, my brother was the one who I played basketball with, threw the football and baseball with, and eventually the one who inspired my love for A&M and the Aggies. For all my life I can remember wanting to play sports and wanting to watch sports, but around 7th grade when my brother moved off to A&M is when I really started getting the sports bug. Visiting for home games, standing in the

Furthering my education at Fairmont State University is the best decision I have made. I started college at West Virginia University and it was a disaster for me. So, I say this with sincerity, being a member of Fairmont State University is an honor.

Continuing with my graduate studies at UNO would be vital to my continual growth and developmental, in both the academic and professional realms. Having done my Undergraduate studies at UNO was an eye opening and extremely beneficial opportunity which I will be eternally grateful for having and something that I would love to continue with my Graduate studies within the university. Completing my Bachelors of Arts at UNO granted me the opportunity to work with amazing professors who helped shape me into who I am today and granted me the opportunity to expand my knowledge further than the classroom with helping me to conduct my own research. I was able to conduct two research projects focusing on the issues the Hispanic population face, both of which have been presented at the Midwest Sociological Society’s Annual Meetings. My hope is

In college, I plan on taking the courses needed to qualify for admission into medical school. My number one goal is to continue making all As in my college courses. I also plan on being an active member in many clubs and taking advantage of community service opportunities. After finishing my bachelor degree, I plan on attending medical school, and from there I hope to become a psychiatrist. Hopefully, I will be able to obtain a job working for the VA where I can help provide care for veterans. My main goal from then on out would be to provide the best care possible for my patients.

During the year of 2014 there were an estimated 112,600 architects employed and approximately 20% were self-employed. Architects have a high competition for jobs and job positions are estimated to increase seven percent each year (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).

Kansas State is a great college that is full of opportunities for scholarships and has a wide variety of clubs and degrees.

If you were to slowly pour a handful of table salt into an entirely full glass of water, it would not overflow. Actually, the water level would decrease. The world of Chemistry is full of amazing science like this, which is why I am pursuing a degree in Chemistry at Fresno State. I plan on continuing my education after I graduate and earn a masters followed by working in the chemical engineering field. This goal could definitely be hindered by the fact that there are few chemistry scholarships at Fresno State. Scholarships like this will help my parents pay for my education, ultimately allowing me to reach my career goals while remaining debt free. I was awarded this grant last year and it contributed a large portion of my tuition and also allowed me to join one of Fresno State’s “Discovere” program. Discovere courses are general education classes in which tablets are used to collaborate with other students as we work together on class projects.

First, I would like to thank the organizations responsible for funding this research work, including Michigan State University for travel funding supports, and National Institute of Health (NIH) for research funding. I greatly appreciate the investments made by the organizations in my development as a scientist.

In my navigation through life, I have narrowed down my career paths to two choices. The first choice being becoming a physical therapist, and the second choice being becoming a veterinarian. I would like to be a physical therapist because I am familiar with the type of work they do and enjoy helping people get back on the feet achieve their goal of recovery. I would like to specialize in helping athletes to recover as I myself know how important it is for athletes to recover quickly, and, more importantly, to receive the correct treatment to prevent a single injury that can be rehabilitated from becoming a life long issue. My overall goal would be to one day own my own practice. I also can see myself becoming a veterinarian to study and learn

Due to a back injury, I was often forced to sit out of sports and fun activities that I loved. Although I felt like this was the worst thing to ever happen to me, I learned from the experience. I have decided to become an athletic trainer so I can do my part in helping people that don't want to sit out of their favorite activity. My goal is to help as many injured athletes get back to their favorite sport as I can. I do not want to let another athlete suffer from sitting out. I plan to attend the University of Toledo in the fall of 2016. I will get my bachelor's degree in athletic training, then furthering my education with a Master of Science in Exercise

I want to major in exercise physiology in order to later become a physical therapist. I’ve been asked so many times why I want to work in that field, and after a lot of considering I can’t give just one answer. I interned at Physical Therapy and Hand Specialists for a semester and I loved interacting with people everyday. I love learning about the human body and being able to help people. Everyday was a learning experience, but it never felt like work. I’m eager to major in exercise physiology, because it’s the first step in becoming a physical
