I am writing a 250 words or less, answer the following questions:
- Why do you want and need this scholarship?
- Comment on university courses that have been most challenging and rewarding.
- Comment on character traits, which have been your best assets.
- Describe your post-college ambition.
This is what I wrote and I will be very glad if you let me know my mistakes, and tell me what to delete or add. ( also let me know if I answered all of the question asked correctly) PLEASE HELP AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.
My name is Merveille , a student at University of North Texas. Growing up in the poor Country Congo, Africa made me realized how important education is and why we have to pursue our dreams. As my family and I moved to united state in 2007, I saw my parents effort and hard work to provide the necessary living conditions available for my sibling and I to grow up in. Seeing strangers getting their degrees motivated me to pursue a higher earning education to eliminate any struggles to what we experienced. As coming from a poor background, I have no external relations to help me with the expenses for college. This scholarship will allow me to move toward my goal one-step in advance by providing my housing and reducing the cost of attending college.
Throughout my first semester of college, I chose a difficult subject History with a hard professor to test my conceptual knowledge and to see if I am ready for college as a second language student. The course was hard for me because it required reading every day, taking test with short answers and taking your own notes. Like I know I am a hard working person, I never asked a professor to repeat something when I did not understand a topic out of the fear and stubbornness of appearing ignorant but gave myself a double job to listen to people talking and writing everything down to test my mental capabilities but trying harder in the class and practicing during my spare time improved my comprehensibility, earring and writing habit. Thus, the experience gained from the courses will contribute to my strength and commitment to my education in college.
Further more, this scholarship will provide me aid to help me get closer to my post-college ambition. My ambition is to become an accountant to help my communities manage their money, help them set a budget and take care of their taxes yearly.
