Why I Deserve A Scholarship

Decent Essays
I feel that i would be a good candidate for this scholarship for an higher education. The scholarships will help me pay for college or assist me with the essentials. I would like to go college for culinary and/or music recording. I see myself doing this career in the long run and I always wanted to be a cook and/or be a musician. This $500-$1,000 would help me pay for books, meals, or equipment to help me go far in my education.

I would be the first person from my family to go to college. People have always looked at me as a bad kid but I want to change my life around. I want to do something that will make my mother proud of me. I’m doing things now to further my music career, but if I don’t make it, want to have a backup plan to do something

    I feel like I am a good candidate for this scholarship because, as a senior, any and all money earned and received will help me ease the burden of attending college.

I have worked hard, inside and outside of the classroom, making the grades and creating the resume that colleges are looking for, and in response I have been offered tuition waivers. Which ultimately means I am still responsible for paying for my books, room and board, part of the tuition cost, and mandatory fees.…

    If I was awarded this scholarship it would greatly help me offset some of the costs of college. In order to pay for school I rely on student loans, and my dad takes money out of his retirement fund to pay for the remaining amount that I owe. It is difficult to ask my parents for money for tuition because I know my dad will be retiring soon, so every dollar he gives me results in him having to work longer before he can retire. If I was awarded this scholarship it would put a lot less stress on my family because they wouldn’t have come up with the money each semester. It would also result in me being able to pay my dad back much sooner so that he can retire.…
