Scholarships

research of how to pay for college, I know that to differ some of the cost of college I need to apply for scholarships, maintain an on-campus job, and family support. Applying for scholarships is one of the key elements to paying for my college expenses. Both of my parents are nurses; therefore I will not have much aid from the FAFSA form. This means that I must work harder than others for scholarships in order to be debt free when I graduate college with a master's degree in Occupational…

This fall, I will be attending Salisbury University. Along with my admission, I was granted The Presidential Scholarship Award. This is an academic scholarship that will help me support my career dream to study dentistry. I have always known that I wanted to be involved in the medical field but, I recently discovered my strong passion for dental work. I have always been so fascinated by what each tool does, what happens during each procedure, and everything there is to know about the oral area.…

Essay I am grateful for this opportunity to apply for the Viola B. Wilson Endowed Scholarship and the John S. Staley Memorial Fund scholarships. Scholarship opportunities have been of particular importance to me; I paid for my undergraduate education primarily on my own and will be paying for my graduate schooling on my own as well. While I am asking for financial help, my work ethic and commitment to education are a strong part of who I am. Growing up, it was my responsibility to pay for things…

use any help we can get when it comes to scholarships. Even though I do plan on attending a fairly cheap (compared to other colleges) community college. This college is NICC because I heard that it has a nice engineering program and that is what I plan on doing when I am older. I think that a nice and cheap community college would still produce problems in my families income which is why I think that any scholarships would benefit greatly. Any scholarships that I can get would allow me to get…

“Stay in sports because I know you’re good enough to get a scholarship”. This is what my dad told me every day of my life. I was always contemplating on whether to staying in sports was a good choice or not. As a b kid sports was my life; It revolved around the sport that I was in during that particular season. I was in basketball, base ball and shot put. The sport I was the best at was shot-put. 5 time national champ and has won 4 years IN a row. During baseball season the best accomplishments…

interaction with such inspirational models (made more plausible through the Forty Acres Scholars) would further my drive and confidence to expand the future of space exploration. Maybe one day, my generation will have to specify which world our scholarship applicants wish to…

Temple Foundation Scholarship Committee: My education value was instilled in me at a very early age. My father did not have an opportunity to attend college, and my mother did not attend High School. Now that I look back, I watched how my heroes struggled to raise Six of us. Though my father has passed away years ago, I like to think he sees I am following his and mom’s instructions about education. Now I am a blind and legally death parent who has strived to better myself and show my…

In my opinion, leadership, scholarship, and service all have one thing in common. They aren’t meant for everyone and they definitely don’t come easy. I believe that each and every day I exhibit these three qualities in my work, my personality, and my studies. First and foremost, I have taken many roles in college that exude how much of a leader I am and can be. In the Texas Tech Lions club, there has not been a semester that has passed by that I haven’t served as an officer. In my first two…

lasting change, is the same as my own. I am confident that I will embody the mission of the Schwartzman Scholars. I will live it. I will continue to understand the word after completing the Schwartzman program. And I aim to do so through Rhodes Scholarship to study the rise of Africa and the rise of the Internet in society. In the long term, I will use the knowledge that I have gathered, and the skills that I have gained to create a legacy. I will change the world for the better. I…

To promote the Gilman Scholarship and international education, I would like to visit my old high school and give a presentation to inform students interested in learning a foreign language on what it’s like to study abroad. In order to do so, during my time in China, I will take many pictures and recollect memories that could inspire students to ignore the challenges of learning a new language from scratches and motivating them to adventure the world and the many opportunities given to the ones…
