    I think I should be considered for the Whitten Scholarship because I work hard, I’m a leader, and I’m self motivated. Juggling between being in three sports, being social, and being on the Honor Roll every year was not an easy task. I always put my school work first, but finding a balance between everything else was a task not everyone could handle as successfully as I did. In addition to my busy in school schedule, during the summer I stayed busy too. When I did have football practice or workouts, I was working at the local cable company D & P Communications.…

This, I believe, would be the ideal opportunity to further my passion for Arabic studies in the Ivy League. My recent experience studying Arabic on a David L. Boren Scholarship in Amman, Jordan, has allowed me to obtain an intense level of Arabic language proficiency, with experience integrating the language into both research and professional development.…

    I believe that academics will be a positive addition to my recovery, allowing me to expand my mind and giving me the opportunity to be successful through my education, ultimately enhancing my recovery by teaching me life skills to help maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle. One factor that remains constant in both recovery and academics is the commitment, and I feel that incorporating my recovery skills into my academics will eventually allow me to finish my academic career. Before I was introduced to recovery, I had no sense of urgency or priority in my life whatsoever. I believe that this is a strong reason why I failed at my first college attempt. I let academics fall back on the list of importance in my life, and eventually, I was not able to make up for this…
