Why I Deserve To Be Awarded A Scholarship

Decent Essays
Surely plenty of other students might have much better reason as to why they deserve to be awarded this scholarship. Either being in many sports, taking many honors or AP classes or just being a phenomenal student overall. I didn't do any of those things, I never played a sport or took very challenging classes. I never believed I could pass an honors or AP class and I was always to afraid to take the risk. Even though I didn't take the risks I am very proud that I am passing all my current classes with A’s and B’s. I haven't always done well in school which always kept me from trying to take harder classes. Even though I never challenged myself these past four years I do believe it has taught me that a little challenge should be good for me.

    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. My goal throughout my whole childhood was to receive a full ride scholarship to the college of my dreams; however, as time has gone on and I have matured I have come to the realization that, that dream is not as achievable as I once believed it to be. 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.…

    Life is a cryptic phenomenon in my point of view. This is because life is unpredictable and usually it is not going according what you have planned at all. That is why life is truly mysterious and lucidly ambiguous because sometimes we delineate for something based on our wills. That is simply because in life, we do not get what we want sometimes, but we will get what we actually need in future. For me, the only thing we can do with our life is learning our impuissance in the past ,live up to the fullest for today and hope for the best in the future.…
