Dear Fort Morgan United Methodist Church Endowment Scholarship Committee,

I am writing today in regards to the Permanent Endowment Scholarship offered through our church. I was very fortunate to have received this scholarship for the past two years; it has helped relieve the out-of-state financial burden and it felt comforting entering the next chapter of my life knowing I had my church family from home supporting me. I am asking you today to please consider me for this scholarship as a reapplying college student.

For the past two years, I have continued my college education at Kansas State University in Manhattan, KS. My major is Wildlife and Outdoor Enterprise Management; it is a unique degree that is teaching me about the business side of wildlife management and recreation.

Through both organizations, I have met many like-minded individuals that have helped me grow in my relationship with God. I do not attend both services each week and some weeks I do not make it to either. However, I attend when I can and I bring friends whenever it is

While attending Mother McAuley, not only have realized my strong and weak points in my character, I have been able to improve my reading and writing abilities. Throughout my entire life, I’ve had the stigma that I had no other choice but to participate in sports due to my height.…

    Growing up, I always envisioned college to be a terrifying experience; I would be away from home for what I thought would be forever, surrounded by unfriendly strangers, and struggling to keep up with my professors as they discuss subjects meant for only experts in a field. Now that I have one semester of college under my belt, I wish I could tell my past self to stop expecting the worst. Christopher Newport University has become a home away from home for me, and only the opposite of my expectations has come true. Coming into CNU, I knew I needed to have at least a 3.7 GPA to maintain a scholarship, and I was so scared that I would not be able to do so. Words from my core advisor alleviated my fears, and I found myself maintaining an A average…
