I Have not Received ANY Scholarships! 60+ applications!
I have applied to many merit and need-based scholarships. I am from a middle class family and have a 5.4 unweighted GPA, as well as a 1520 on my SAT. I am half Asian and half white. Both my parents are first-generation college students. We have low income and high assets, and I really want to reduce the financial burden of paying for college on my parents, especially since we aren't getting any grants from the government or university. I am attending Texas A&M University for Engineering this fall and am getting very frustrated, since I started applying since the beginning of the year. I filled my FAFSA correctly, and have already received loan options from A&M only. I have received two scholarship rejections and nothing else. I have spent countless hours on dozens of pages of essays, grammar checking, proofreading, rewriting, and I have not received anything. I admit I am not very good at writing in general, but I am really trying my best here! I've written about my success stories, my failures, my personal stances on controversial topics, my ethnic background, my interest in engineering, analysis of technological breakthroughs and applications of engineering, my dream to contribute to space exploration, environmental issues, and many other topics! I have applied to every local scholarship that I could find, and have also applied to nearly every scholarship I was fit for in three main scholarship-search websites. These are Scholarships.com , CollegeGreenlight.com , and ScholarshipOwl.com (Mostly CollegeGreenlight) I have mailed(physically), emailed, filled out Google Forms, done online applications, submitted multiple letters of recommendations from my teachers and counselor, sent my transcript, SAT scores, and just about anything else I was asked for every time. I have applied to scholarships related to my specific interest in Engineering, as well as more general groups, such as PSAs and quick-and -dirty 1 minute applications(only a couple). I also submitted scholarships relating to my passions as a competitive swimmer and high level musician. I have applied for scholarships ranging from $500 to $10,000. I even have a spreadsheet keeping track of each scholarship I have applied to. I always read the requirements and qualifications of each application, and made sure I live in the right area, have the right interests/experiences, and meet any other criteria. I have given all the above information about myself to these applications whenever possible. What am I doing wrong? To date, I have applied to over 60 scholarships since January. Thank you for taking your time to read this. #scholarship #college #financial-aid #help #engineering #rejections #essay
What is a good introduction to say when talking about your career?
If you are telling others about your career, and also want to look professional, what would be a good way to go about it? This would be for introducing it to them. It would be great if you also told me how to talk about my career for the whole explanation. P.S, my career would be marine biologist for reference. #career #interview #essay
