Scholarship Thank You in Advance for Your

Scholarship

Thank you in advance for your consideration of my request for a scholarship. My career change means I will be entering nurse training this year, enrolled at St. John's.

I am worthy of a scholarship because I understand commitment, obligations, responsibilities -- and the importance of rolling up one's sleeves to get important tasks completed competently and professionally.

Indeed, I have been engaged in the hard work of farming -- I farm 420 acres of corn and soybeans -- and I have planned on going into the healthcare field for years.

I am motivated by the passion I have to be trained to help others. That passion drives me to achieve academic excellence. In fact, since my return to the educational field, I have maintained a 4.0. -- a reflection of the work ethic I have always embraced.

Also, I am greatly motivated by my desire to see my children succeed in whatever chosen field they decide to go into.

To wit, a scholarship will be enormously beneficial because I am a single mother with two bright children (ages 3 and 6), and I want them to have opportunities (including college), happiness, and security. My children show clear signs that they are emotionally healthy and alert to the world around them, and I want them to see that the world is wide open for those who have dreams, ideals, and are willing to work hard to achieve those goals.

My vision for a bountiful future is one in which I can provide the technical and compassionate care for ill and injured people -- as a nurse practitioner. Beyond that, I hope to be accepted into a pre-med program and work towards becoming a caring, loving, helpful physician in ER or ICU.
