I am truly interested in being one of the scholars of XXXX. I need a scholarship to help my parents pay for my costly tuition fees. Even though my father has a stable job, it is not enough for my parents to simultaneously support their three children in college.

The value of education is something that I have understood since a very young age. Neither of my parents had an opportunity to attend college, and faced many struggles in their personal and professional lives because of this. They made a commitment early in my life to do everything within their power to instill in me a love of learning and an understanding of the importance of hard work and dedication.
Because of their love and sacrifice over the years, I have been able to devote the time and energy necessary to academic accomplishment even though
money has always been tight. In my senior year at XYZ High School, I have a 3.9 grade-point average. In addition to focusing on my own studies, I also worked as a math and science tutor throughout my years in high school as a way of contributing to my family’s budget.
Additionally, I have also been active in my school and community outside of the classroom, serving on the student council as _____________________ for two years and volunteering at a local Boys & Girls Clubs of _________ chapter during school breaks.
My family has made many sacrifices to allow me to focus on education throughout primary and secondary school. I now have an opportunity to become the first person in my family to attend college, though I’m in need of financial assistance to realize what has been a long-term goal for me and a dream for my parents.
If selected for this scholarship, I will continue to apply the same diligence to my collegiate studies as I have to this point, making education and service to others my top priority. I will represent your organization well during my years in college and beyond. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
