“First, I would like to say thank you. I am sincerely honored to be selected to receive this scholarship. This scholarship will help me to continue my education, purchasing textbooks and nursing school supplies. I do not have the financial support of any family, nor do I have a lot of resources to support me in attending college. So, this will greatly relieve any financial burden I may incur as I work toward completing my program.
I have always worked hard in school, and I have done well. By receiving this scholarship shows me that my hard work is paying off. I decided to attend Glendale Community College and the Maricopa Nursing CEP program because of its programs accreditation and the stringent application and admission requirements. The faculty who teaches this program are working professionals and provide valuable and relevant information. I take my education very seriously and intend to push through any obstacles I may face. I’ve gone farther than I ever imagined I could. This journey into becoming a nurse started for me because of the crisis our world faced during COVID-19.
As a professional nurse, I hope to fulfill my purpose of helping others by encouraging and advocating for others. I am committed to my education and want to be a role model to my peers by being dependable and hardworking and encouraging to them as well. I will end this by saying how extremely thankful I am for this opportunity and to continue my education.“
