Something in my life that I find to be significant is receiving over a million dollars in scholarships from various schools, being accepted to every school I applied to, as well as graduating from high school to be able to go to college and further my education. See in my family it is not too often that a male graduates from high school and goes to college especially with the accomplishments that I have done. Not only was I the first male in my family to graduate in the top 10% of my class, I was also the first to receive more than just a athletic or band scholarship in my family. Along with my plethora of band scholarships that I received I also received academic scholarships to go various schools and one in particular from Princeton University really caught my eye. Doing these things started to pave a bright future for myself and the doors that opened for me. The scholarships I received as far as bands were from: Alabama State university, Alabama A&M University, Alcorn State University, Jackson State University, Tennessee State University, Mississippi Valley State University, Southern University, Texas Southern university, Winston-Salem State University, Grambling State University, Florida A&M, Bethune Cookman, South Carolina State, Howard, Hampton, Albany State, and University of Arkansas Pine Bluff. I received around $1,000,000 in band scholarships alone. I received academic scholarships that I received were from: Jackson State University, Princeton University, University of Kentucky, Savannah State University, Albany State University, and Florida A&M. I received around $500,000 from my academic scholarships. This is significant to me because I was told I was the first student at my high school to receive that much money in scholarships in 10 years. Doing this was not easy for me though. I faced a lot of trials and tribulations throughout my high school especially my senior in high school. Dealing
