Why This Scholarship Award Is Important To Family

Decent Essays
One reason this scholarship award is important to my family and I is because of the price. To some people $1,500 may not seem like that much money, but I look at it is $1,500 less that I will have to pay. I am a triplet, which means that all three of us will be going to college next fall. Although my parents do not seem too concerned about the upcoming price tag of college, I know that I want to do as much as possible to lower the price. Whether it is working or filling out scholarships, I want to earn as much as I can now instead of procrastinating. Another reason this scholarship is important to me is because of the opportunity. I want to become more involved in the health career and by looking at my volunteer time I can tell that I need

    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.…
