I deserve to be selected for the KSU Foundation scholarship because I am dedicated to serving others and know how important it is to persevere. Having won an Air Force Junior ROTC national community service award in the 9th grade and having voluntarily completed over five hundred community service hours during my junior and senior years of high school, I want to continue on serving others in any capacity possible. Receiving this scholarship would allow me to continue on the path to becoming a surgeon for Doctors Without Borders by assisting me financially, allowing me to have more time to serve my community when I otherwise would have been working to be able to afford to stay in college and complete my degree program. Finally, my work and volunteer…

I don’t know if I feel that saying that I deserve this scholarship is the right thing to say, but going to Japan has been a goal of mine ever since I can remember. My grandfather was the one who really got me interested in Japan. He would always tell me stories about the culture, people, the little bits of language that he picked up, and the time that he spent there. My grandfather would have loved me going to Japan and would have supported me whole heartedly. I want to go to Japan not only to see what he saw, but also to improve the little that I know and improve myself.…
I firmly believe the "Courage to Grow" scholarship should be awarded to me because since I was very young, I have always had a strong love of learning. I did well throughout elementary, middle, and high school. I have always been motivated to do my best in school. Now that I am a second semester college sophomore, my love for school has only grown. During high school, I maintained a 3.3 GPA, and now that I am in college, I have managed a 3.4 GPA. This semester, I am working even harder for a higher GPA. In the spring of 2017, I plan to transfer as a junior to East Texas Baptist University. I have dreamed of attending this college since I was a freshman in high school. Since this is a private university, this dream will only come true based…

My educational goals can be said to be broken down into three parts that are really the means to my ends which is the fourth and most important goal. First, Im working on getting good grades in every class, I want to work on having and maintaining a high competitive GPA. My second goal is to get my Bachelors in Political Science in an ideal time frame of two more years. My third goal and one that is out of my hands, one may say, is getting a scholarship. I know there is a large amount of competitive students in the school, who are well deserving of scholarships but I need this scholarship to alleviate my parents from their stress and hard work to keep up with my payments. The last and really my main goal, where my eyes are set and where I,…

How would you feel if a murderer escaped custody because he wasn't properly handcuffed and killed your family? Handcuffs are the most common form of restraint device used by law enforcement officers. Handcuffs can be made of metal or plastic. They have two hinged circles that open, then close to encircle the wrists, holding the restrained person's hands close together. The two wrist-cuffs are most commonly attached with a short length of chain, but might also be attached with a hinge or with a rigid bar. Law enforcement officers carry handcuffs on their utility belts, usually within a protective leather case (Hill). Here are some steps on how to properly arrest someone.…
Since, I played four sports, it was hard to just focus on one. Sometimes I would have to come in early for one sport and stay after school for another. I really had to manage my time wisely. I am proud to say that I have been on the A honor role every year since freshman year. This was a goal I had since I was a child. I always wanted to be a straight A student and when I would do bad on something, I would study it until it was perfect. I think I should be considered for this scholarship because I have great leadership skills in everything that I do. I show leadership in sports by giving 110% in practice off and on the court or field. I lead by example and have a very strong worth ethic. No matter where I am put in any sport, I give it my all.…

I not only have put forth a recommendable effort in my academic career, staying on the all A Honor roll and maintaining a 4.0 GPA all four years of high school.

This past year, I was bestowed the honor of being named a 2010 Governors Scholar, along with being named a UCA All-American Cheerleader. Along with many other honors and awards, these are two that I am most proud of because they show that I am well-rounded and a very driven…

Attending post-secondary will help me gain the knowledge and skills to become a successful computer software engineer. After entering the workforce, I wish to invent or innovate something that will benefit those less fortunate than myself. We live in a world shaped by engineering and with advancing technology, engineers will help people live better lives and I want to be…
I believe I should be awarded this scholarship because I have a strive to learn and push myself. Being dyslexic and suffering from Reflex Neurovascular Dystrophy school is a challenge. I was in a serious car accident in April of 2016, my doctor told me I did not have to attend school the rest of the year. I convince my parents and doctor to come to an agreement so I could attend for two hours a day. I missed one full nine weeks of my education that I can never make up. I had to pass up a great summer job opportunity to help me pay for my college education. This scholarship would take a lot of stress off of me and I would feel like I accomplished something this summer with a severe concussion.…
