I would pay my mom back for each semester of books she has covered so far and for any other expense that she has made sacrifices to help me with. I would go back to my home country, Bulgaria, to celebrate my first Christmas with my relatives in what’s been 12 years. I would pay for my grandpa’s ticket to come live with us in the United States and for medical costs/procedures that would improve his quality of life and health. I would successfully complete medical school without having to take out as many large loans and worry about the burden that I’m creating for myself and for my mom! Receiving this money would be a blessing, to say the least!

If I won it for my school money I wouldn’t have to work a million times harder in life trying to pay off my debt to government. I would be able to continue my college studies for experience in the business world before I open up my own beauty salon. I would donate a thousand dollars every year, when I start up my own salon, to the make a wish foundation. Because everyone desires a good charitable gift in life.

It would be a blessing to win a $50,000 scholarship, even more so with the ever present global economic crisis. Not only would this alleviate some of the financial necessity which my family is going through, it would also go to my siblings education. I come from a working class family that receives minimum -if any- financial help. My parents have strived to maintain us afloat and provide the best education possible. I am currently attending a university in Puerto Rico. Nursing is my chosen profession because I believe that we should preserve and instill the value of health. As people grow and live their lives some do not appreciate their physical capacities. As the body starts to age they start accepting their limits and taking better care of themselves. Health -in my perception- is a physical state which defines how we live. With financial help I hope to pay my college expenses and be able to provide a future for my siblings as well.
July 26th, 2010 | #
Any scholarship money awarded to me, will go directly to my tuition dept. After I achieve my personal and professional goal, I would like to start my own scholarship program. Iv decided to add up any and all scholarship and grant money I was fortunate enough to receive and give back on a yearly basis double the amount. This is something I have always wanted to do. I was the first in my family to ever graduate high school. I then went on to graduate with a business degree, currently I am going back to get a Technology degree. I am dedicated to making sure that all of my family from this point on graduate both high school and college.
July 26th, 2010 | #

July 26th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, after jumping up and down as screaming for joy and crying for a few minutes, I would apply a portion to college education each semester until I graduate. The remaining money would be added to the college debt I have gained so far. Whatever I have remaining will be put towards either my master degree or towards education for my younger siblings.

Wow where to begin… Ever since I can remember it has always been my dream to become a judge but it seems as of late the system just keeps shooting that ambition down. Between the lost of my mother and my fatgher’s fixed income it has been so very hard to pay for college. He can’t really afford to send meand I’m not in the best health standings to work. Somehow we managed to get a cousin of mine to cosign for private student loans which will leave me so greatly in debt before I even get my two feet upon the ground. My mother was very sick and as a young girl my sister and I assumed all of the responsiblities of becoming her nurses though the burden was mainly on me with cooking and cleaning as well. In high school I had taken honors courses and had been in many extrra curricular activites trying to build a resume for college. There were night I didn’t get home until 12 am the next day doing events and such. Then I’d have to come home, cook , and go straight to my homework typically getting up for school at five and not finishing until around four o’clock. When she died everythign seemed to get harder dealing with the burden of her lost and all the responsiblities doubled because my sister went off to college. Recently I could no longer apply for my private loans with my cosinger and currently so incredibly stressed about where I am going to get my fiances fore school to finish out my ungraduate degree much less my graduate course work. Fifty thousand dollars would mean that all of my hard work , those nights I stayed up with no sleep pushing myself beyond a human’s limit… (let alone a child’s limit) the endless tears , sweat, and pain would not be in vain. It will have finally paid off to have done it all if I could have this shcolarship of fifty thousand dollars and no longer have to worry about where I am going to get the finacial aid for school or how am I going to pay what I’ve already borrowed back. If I won a $50,000 dollar scholarship I’d deposite it into my bank of dreams and never stop pushing to my goals of being what it is I’ve always wanted to be. With that fiancial burden off my back there’d be no stopping me. I’ve always heard it said that you canot have a testimony without a test. This scholarship would be the testimony to my test I’m facing right now. I know there are so many people out there wanting this but if I were chosen I can honestly say that this oppostunity would be such a life changing experience for me that I don’t think words could honestly describe it. It’d be surreal.
July 26th, 2010 | #

I’d want to pursue a career in Dentistry as well as Psychology, just depending on what I really think is right for me!!! I have about two and a half years before receiving my Bachelor’s of Science degree in Psychology but after that I would really love to become an Orthodontal assistant!! This money would be a great help when it comes to paying for my college tuition.

Good Evening,
This monetary award will be used as a ‘down payment’ towards my promise to my Mother before she passed of finishing college. I started college a little over ten years ago, and due to personal challenges I was unable to return. It would be an honor to be the recipient of this award.
I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you and God Bless!

I would be able to pay my loans, AND pay daycare while I go to school. I have been in school for 3 weeks, with 15 months to go and am still trying to figure out how to pay daycare to finish school. It is very hard to be a single mom trying to better herself with an education!
July 22nd, 2010 | #
I would pay for my tuition for the next two years of school because finishing would help me jump start my career and life.
July 22nd, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship for college, it would be miracle. My father and I could relax about loans and I’d be able to go through college not having to worry about finances. It would take so much stress off of me. As an incoming freshman, there are chances that tuition would go up, but I will be settled and might have some to pay for other things and be able to join groups or go on trips with my friends.
July 22nd, 2010 | #
If I could win a $50,000 dollar scholarship. My heart would drop as if its on a scale, and the other side of the scale is empty from college dept. My stress would float away like the tension massaging my shoulders. My life, a lot more relaxed.
School is all I have right now. when I go on vacation. I just can’t wait until the next quarter begins. My dream, my passion, my career is based on becoming a successful person. Support from living hard and struggling through life. The only thing I want out of it all, is to come out from nothing and turn into somebody. A lot of people today see the American dream as a target that cannot be hit. A star that cannot be reached. Or an ocean that cannot be walked on. The American dream is to reach up as high as you can. Work as hard as you can, to get to that life time goal. But life isn’t all about being the first or richest. Life is about testing yourself and how far you can go to get. Life is about DOING SOMETHING. And looking back in life and saying “I actually did something with my life. I didn’t win, I didn’t get first place, I didn’t come last. But I did it. I never quit. I kept going and it feels good to accomplish a goal.” AFTER ALL, SHORT TERM GOALS, ARE JUST STEPS CLOSER TO A LONG TERM GOAL.

If I ever win a $50,000 scholarship, I would definitely use the grant towards my future education in college with hopes of wanting and becoming a doctor. I’m graduating high school in 2011, and I acknowledge that I still have a long journey ahead before reaching that dream/goal. And with the scholarship it would definitely alleviate my family, and myself the troubles of affording colleges with its expenses. After all, now with the recession it would be intricate to attend college. Thus with the scholarship, it would provide a better opportunity and less stress for the future; my future.
July 22nd, 2010 | #
if i won a 50,000 scholarship, i would fund the remainder of my education at Berklee College. It’s on of the cheaper schools in the Boston area, but it’s still pricey like many other colleges and universities nowadays. Having that covered, I would be able to afford a better apartment because the school only has one dorm building, being centered in the busy Back Bay area.
July 22nd, 2010 | #
If I received a scholarship for 50,000 dollars, first I would be taken aback; that is definitely a large sum. With the initial shock aside, I would still have mixed feelings. If asked to think on-the-spot of where the financing should go, I would then have to choose between many outlets where it could be potentially useful. Would I use it as a stepping stone to reach my goal of attaining a doctorate in Physiological Psychology? Would I use it to further my efforts in psychological research in my academic career? I believe that I would use the opportunity as a multi-faceted scholarship; I would use it to advance the world of physiological research, while at the same striving for my own personal goal of top-level education. In doing so, I would be not only creating a personal story that would be incredible; I would also be able to eventually further a vast field that is growing rapidly.
July 22nd, 2010 | #
If I won that much, I would use it up wisely in my college nursing studies
July 22nd, 2010 | #

July 22nd, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000.00 scholarship, I would first pay off the loans that I currently have after two years of studying as an undergraduate. I would then set a majority of the money aside for much later on in my life and choose the other portion for current housing, books, etc.
July 22nd, 2010 | #

July 21st, 2010 | #

If I were to win a scholarship of that amount it would help me signifcanfly to pay all college related bills. The funds would go to many education related bills and take a huge hardship off my back.

Tuition at private universities is high. I could pay off my $35,000 tuition and buy all the books I need for the whole year. Maybe there would be enough money left over to buy a lab coat and other little expenses that come along the way. As a bio major I need all the help I can get so this money would be heaven sent for me.
July 21st, 2010 | #
If I were able to win the $50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay for most of the fees that come with an education from University of California, Irvine. This money would really help my pay for college because a few months ago my mother threw me out of her house and is now refusing to provide anything for college. Although I had no where to live for a few days I was finally able to move in with my father in his room rented at a strangers house along with my sister who had been kicked out as well. The main point I want to make is that I know that everyone has a hard time finding money when it comes to college but I believe that it would be most appreciated by me. I am tired of people telling me how far I can go in life just because I lack the finances. I want the best for myself and my intended major in environmental science will prove to help others as well.
July 21st, 2010 | #
Obviously, if I won a scholarship it would go towards going back to school. I did the whole going to college right after high school and unfortunately I wasn’t smart enough to take advantage of it then. Now, it’s 10 years later and i’m a little older and wiser and finally decided to do what I was meant to do then. And that’s get my college degree in the field of my choice Healthcare Administration!
July 20th, 2010 | #

Oh man, how this would be a dream come true, a truly God-sent blessing. My parents have never had money for a fund and I am more than determined to go to college. We don’t qualify for government aid and every single day I’m begging on the phone for extensions. Despite the hassle, I’m going to college, whatever it takes. I guess I’ll be in a lot of debt, but I’m going!
July 20th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will use it to pay for my college education. My dad had it all set to pay for it but he died without a will and my “step-mother” took everything and ran….. Now I have no way to pay for college because my mother expected my college to be paid for and I don’t qualify for help. I worked really hard in High School, got excellent grades, and graduated with Honors, but that’s still not enough. This scholarship would go a long way to help me reach my goal of graduating from college.
July 20th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship it would be a great help in paying off my tuition and fees for college. It would take a huge burden off my shoulders.

July 20th, 2010 | #

With the money, i would be able recieve a degree and find a job in which i love. I love learning and cannot wait for college, I just need extra money to get me by. Nothing means more to me then going to college to live my life I have always wanted to live. Thank you!

I have saved for ten years, and still I do not have enough to cover four years overseas (plus travel costs, books, and lodging!), so this scholarship would mean the world to me.

If I won the $50,000 scholarship, this would allow me to pay off the current tuition I owe. This would also alleviate stress on my family due to wondering how we are going to pay for my tuition. I love my family and will do anything for them, that’s why I made the choice to go college to earn a degree for a successful career. This would mean so much to me and my family if I won the scholarship and being you will be doing me a favor, I would have to pay it forward by helping someone else in need.

July 17th, 2010 | #
If I win I will use the money to pay for my education. This will be my first year in college and I am trying to get all the scholarships I can.
July 17th, 2010 | #
$50k would allow me to pay off some bills as well as the student loans outstanding on my undergraduate degree. Also, if I had a little more cash in the bank, my husband could quit his 2nd job and begin his pursuit of an online degree; that way we could both be closer to our combined goal of both having jobs as physician assistants as soon as possible!
July 17th, 2010 | #
$50k would allow me to pay off the current bills and student loans that I have, allowing my husband to not have to work a second job while I’m still in school, giving us more time to spend doing the things we enjoy, as well as allowing him to begin his online degree as well. I might also buy some new shoes.
July 17th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 scholarship I would continue my 4-year Bachelor’s program at Ohio State and get my degree in zoology then use any remaining money to pay for vet school and donate to the peace corps. which I plan on joining after I receive my undergraduate degree. I might not be so far in debt in the end, which would be fantastic!
July 17th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50000 I would be worry frre about books meal plans tutition and tutors.
July 17th, 2010 | #
If I win the $50,000 in cash, I would use half of it to help pay for my parent’s house since this is where I live. Then I would use it to pay off the loans I have. The last of it, I would use to pay for books and future tuition.
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I was able to get the scholarship it would mean the world to me. It is already hard enough for me to make enough since I am a single mother only 19 yrs old. I had to drop out of college because I have to take care of my little girl. If I won a scholarship I would be able to at least go to online school and get started on starting my future. I plan to be a Pharmacy Tech and I don’t plan on stopping for that dream. I want to reach it if thats the last thing I do.
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000, I would use it to pay off my school loans that are so high and feel better about finishing school within the next two year without having the stress of what I owe already! that would be such a blessing, we all deserve a break for trying to make something out of ourselves and for our children!
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I was lucky enough to be a receiver of such a generous scholarship, I would pay off my student loans, pay my dad back what he has helped me pay so far, and pay for the rest of my tuition and supplies. After that, there would be some left over to save for my 6 week externship that is required after I graduate. I will more than likely have to pay for my travel, room and board, and food expenses for the entire 6 weeks, so it would be a great relief to have that worry taken care of before the externship is right in front of me.
July 16th, 2010 | #
I WILL PAY ALL MY SCHOOL FEES AND PAY ALL THE LOANS I BORROW FROM BANK. USE THE REST FOR HOUSING
July 16th, 2010 | #
I AM A SINGLE MOTHER. I LOST MY JOB DUE A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SITUATION AND DECIDED TO FURTHER MY EDUATION. A SCHOLARSHIP WOULD HELP IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY!
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I won this schlarship, not only will it help me to continue through college life with less worry on the money side, but it will also help my parents. Both my parents are unemployed and I’m trying all I can to help on my part. Double majoring in forensic research and medical and minor in chemistry will cost lots of money.
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I got that scholarship, I would definetly need it for the next two years to pay for school. I am entering the Nursing program for a BSN and it is full time. My student loans are going to skyrocket and I would need the help paying for it. I also would need it for expenses for school such as supplies, books, housing, etc. It will be a struggle for me to be able to afford to get through clinicals on a low income status.
July 16th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to pay off my tuition, room and board, and book fees for the next 2 years. If I still have money left over I would use that to pay for graduate school. Winning this scholarship would mean so much to me and would keep everyone in the family from not worrying about how to pay for my education. I would cry if I won because it would lift a giant weight off my shoulder.
July 16th, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay off the majority of the school loans that I already have so that I won’t have as much to oay when I am done with graduate school.
July 16th, 2010 | #
Winning this scholarship will allow me to pay for part of my 2 year pre-pharm program at east carolina university and finish up with my 4 yr program at the university of north carolina. I have complete confidence in my plan, but money happens to be my flat tire. If I fix that flat tire I won’t regret it, but if I leave it like it is and drive on it anyways I’ll regret it (paying on loans).
July 15th, 2010 | #
i will pay for my student loana and i’ll get a master as soon as i finish my bachelor.
July 15th, 2010 | #
I WILL PAY ALL MY STUDENT LOANS THAT ARE GIVING ME A HEADACHE
July 15th, 2010 | #
I would pay off the loans that I had to borrow from the state and then I would try to support a the Department of Neurology in UCSF.
July 15th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would be able to use it to help continue paying for my tuition & other fees. I would also be able to save a little bit to help me out when I begin Grad school for my master’s & doctorates in psychology. And there was a little bit left I would definitely use it to start paying for my loans.
July 15th, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay for master’s degree in school psychology. It is much needed.
July 15th, 2010 | #

July 15th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, that would be a true blessing to me. I would fulfill a goal of completing a bachelor’s degree in social work. I would definitely be able to attend college full time without worries of paying for it. With the left over money, I would pay off loans and make a better life for my children.
July 15th, 2010 | #
I would pay off the $10,000 school loan I owe and I would use the rest of it to pay for my community college, but then I would still have enough money to get a decent car so I can actually get to school!
July 14th, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 would be such a stress reliever for paying for my education. I would definitely cancel my loans! and with extra that would left over, I would take on classes that would enhance my educational endeavors even more. A $50,000 scholarship would knock that financial monkey right off my back!! This way I can enjoy my education without any worries about how I am going to pay for it.
July 14th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would use the money to fund the rest of my nursing degree and pursue my masters as Nurse Practitioner. As a 25 year old independent with rent, bills, groceries and such, it is difficult for me to be a full time student because I work 40 hours a week to make ends meet. Some extra money would allow me to be fully invested into my education to be able to fill the shortage void of care providers in the health care industry right now. Another disadvantage to being a part-time student as well leaves me with barely any opportunities to enter scholarships which are mostly catered to full time high school graduates. As I am NOT a single mother, and proudly work for a decent salary to support myself, I am also not eligible for state or federal aid either. Winning $50,000 would reinforce my hard earned lifestyle and grant me my dream come true as well.
July 14th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship I would be able to complete my classes and go on to nursing school. I have always dreamed of becomeing a nurse but schooling is so expensive. Winning a scholarship would help me out so much.

July 14th, 2010 | #

July 14th, 2010 | #
I am starting my second year in college. I transferred to the University of Colorado and am excited to pursue my major in business. However CU is very expensive and a scholarship would really help me & my parents out.
July 13th, 2010 | #
With $50,000, I would finish school by not putting my parents in debt since my family still has two other college attendees. I want to be able to go through college and retrieve my own materials without continuously burdening my parents shoulders with the weight of unpaid debts. If I can finish school without going into debt, I can gain a career that can earn a good income so that I can provide my parents with a better home and be able to support them when they get to the age where they cannot.
July 13th, 2010 | #
I use the 50,000$ to pay for school and other living costs.
July 13th, 2010 | #

It’s really quite a struggle considering I still have to focus on school. I’m majoring in pre-medicine determined to become an E.R. specialist. I have a long way to go and a scholarship like this would truely help give me the boost I need to transfer to a better school and pursue my dreams.
July 13th, 2010 | #
tithe. tuition. bills.
July 13th, 2010 | #
How wonderful if I win this scholarship. My country is quite poor and need the talent. I wanted my presence on the life takes on a special significance, not only just with family, with parents but also my conutry. If I have been honored with this scholarship, I will try to pursue to develop a comprehensive human to me and come back my conutry. National development, not poverty, illiteracy and establish social justice is what I want. Every man was born with both deserve happiness and equality.
July 13th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship I wouldn’t have to worry about how I was going to pay for my tuition and room and board fees and things of that nature for my university this fall. I could actually enjoy the education and be at peace. And should there be anything left over, it would go straight to my bank account, where I would let it save up for soemthing important. I would also give some of the money to my family members who are in dire need of assistance. It would be put to good use, that’s for sure!
July 12th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship, I wouldn’t have to worry about how I am going to pay for my university classes and room and board this fall. I’d be able to relax and actually enjoy life at school instead of constantly fretting. And if there was to be any money left over, I’d surely place in the bank and save it up to at least get an apartment or steady transportation. I’d even give some of it to my family members who are in dire need of assistance. It could put to good use, that’s for sure!
July 12th, 2010 | #
If I were able to win a scholarship I could actually go to school. I am 21 years old and only have 12 college credits at our Community College. It has always been my dream to go to school to get my masters in Nursing but needless to say I support myself; have since I was 12. My parents refuse to pay for me to further my education and my dad is very sexist and thinks that women do not need an education and their place belongs in the kitchen. I beg to differ. I’m very determined to prove him wrong and get my education so that I will not have to depend upon a man later on in my life like my mother has to now.
July 12th, 2010 | #
with that i can finish my last 2 years of college and have money help pay off the loans i have used for my 1st 2 years. its hard to stay in school without taking out loans on top of applying for scholarships. with a 50,000 dollar scholarship, it could make school much easier.
July 12th, 2010 | #
If i was able to receive the $50,000 scholarship, I would know i would be able to go to SCAD. SCAD is a very expensive art school and I would really like to go to it. It is the best art school in the US. With a $50,000 scholarship I would be able to go to SCAD for one full year. It would help cover everything; tuition, books, a room, a food plan and supplies. I would be very grateful if I received this $50,000 scholarship.
July 12th, 2010 | #
If I could win a $50,000 scholarship, I would know I would be able to go to SCAD. It is a very expensive art school and even if I win a $50,000 scholarship it will basically just cover 1 full year. SCAD is my number one college and I’m trying my best to get as many scholarships as I can so i can go.
July 12th, 2010 | #
If I were fortunate enough to win I would be able to go to school full time without having the pressure of holding down a full time job. Circumstances dictate I change careers late in life so with a $50000 schlorship it will pay the tuition and my bills until I complete my LPN Training.
July 12th, 2010 | #
If i were to win 50,000 dollars i would not only be the happiest person on the plant but, it would drastically improve my current health status. I get sick and lose rediculous amounts of weight when i stress out about school and this would eliminate that.WOW liked 50,000 is my education

July 11th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship I would use that to pay for my school and use my money to buy a house in a small town in tornado country. Then I’d try to make that house tornado proof just to see if I can do it. I hope to make it safe to live then rent out the home for thrill seekers or tornado chasers.
July 11th, 2010 | #
How amazing would it be to win a scolarship? Extremely amazing! College today is not cheap and I’m sure everyone will agree. Any scholarship is very helpful. With it, I would pay off all my remaining tuition! What a blessing that would be!
July 11th, 2010 | #
If I win the 50,000 scholarship, I would pay my school debt of 10,000. off. Then I would use the rest to finish my B.A. degree so I could find a better income job. I work in the school cafeteria making only 18,000 a year.
July 10th, 2010 | #
I have 5 children to support while at the same time borrowing money from the private banks here in the Marshall Islands to cover for my online program. So, when I win I will be able to continue my online doctorate degree from Walden University, Minnesota.
July 10th, 2010 | #
I need a scholarship more than words can even describe! ANY amount of money would help me out tremendously, but the $50,000 scholarship would be such a huge blessing to me right now. If I were to win, I would cry a river! I want/need to return to school, and it has been such a challenging task. It always comes down to money! ALWAYS! Yes, it’s so unfair, but that’s just how life is, I suppose. I want to attend art school and have a wonderful life AND a degree! Everyone deserves to be happy and I would love to finally know what that is like. All I can do is continue to pray.
July 10th, 2010 | #
I could use $50,000 to pay off my current school loans. This would also allow me to continue my education by paying for any future school expenses. I would then use anything leftover to pay down my mortgage and put some aside for my daughter.
July 10th, 2010 | #
If I won the 50,000 dollar scholarship, I would use the money to pay my school loans. Also i would use the money to transfer to UofL. The school is located in the heart of my hometown and i would be able to afford to go to the school of my dreams and be close to my family.
July 10th, 2010 | #
I’m currently a year from completing my PsyD in clinical psychology. However, due to financial difficulties, I’m unable to remain in the program. This amount of money would definitely assist me in completing my education and in obtaining licensure so I can work independently in the field.
July 10th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship I would use the money for tuition and to study abroad!
July 10th, 2010 | #
With $50,0000 I would set aside $10,000 in my savings account for a rainy day. The remaining $40,000 would be invested in starting a business based on my pHd thesis that would help eliminate the worlds dependency on oil. I would then use the proceeds of my business to pay off all my school debt that has been accumulated over the years.
July 10th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would use it to pay for law school since I’m almost done with my undergrad degree. It would also release the burden on me and my mother who is a single parent paying for me and my brothers college education. My father has been out of my life for the past decade since, 2000. I think of it as a blessing for me. If the the law school accepted me, and gave me a good amount of grants and scholarships. Then I would give some of the $50,000 to my brother who recently started college this past year.
July 10th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, I certainly pay off my school loan and finish my college years without worry about the school loan.
July 9th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would use it for college and get my degree in graphic design. It would help me pay for college.

July 9th, 2010 | #
I currently have over $14,000 in college loans and still have to finish my RN program. If I won the $50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay off my loans, finish my RN program, and go on to earn a Bachelor’s degree in nursing. My goal is to serve my community as a nurse and eventually become an instructor of nursing.
July 9th, 2010 | #

July 8th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship it would take a lot of stress off of my mother’s back. I would not only want the money for me and my education but also my mother and her well being. I do not want her to feel overwhelmed.
July 8th, 2010 | #
I will put it in the bank and save it for my college education
July 8th, 2010 | #
I dont know what I will do with $50,000…….maybe I will put it in the bank and use it for school
July 8th, 2010 | #
Winning this scholarship would make all my dreams come true. The stress of not having these huge student loans would help me to be a much better student then ever. I would be able to go to school full time and devote all of my time to progressing further in my field, which is Network Administration and Internet security.
July 8th, 2010 | #
hmmmmm…I read this long ago and used the 50kcash code to get points – it is not a new code and i did not get 25 points……because I have already used the code.
July 8th, 2010 | #
Obviously I would use the money to help finance my college education at Montana State. I would then use the remaining balance to fund a series of informational PSA videos about environmental responsibility and conservatism. I would like to use film as a tool to educate people and to change their views about widely used products. For example I would like to open the world to the fact that plastics are forever, and are not ideal for single-use applications such as food wrappers.
July 8th, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 dollar scholarship, I would be most grateful. Being a single mother of 4, finances are always a challenge. I would first thank God for blessing me with the means to finish college. Afterwhich I would pay for and finish college. I would then apply to Law School, pay for Law School, and afterwhich become a lawyer upon passing the bar exam. Overall the scholarship will help me achieve all of my dreams.
July 8th, 2010 | #
This is an opportunity for me to start a career that I will be happy with for the rest of my life.
July 8th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship I would be able to go to school and earn a degree in biology and continue on to medical school, as well as accomplish my dream to help others in need who may not have the money to go elsewhere and receive a good amount of medical attention. Also with this scholarship I will be able to take a huge burden off of my parents who are currently going through a rough time figuring out how they are going to pay for my education especially seeing that my mom just got out of the hospital with blood clots. I would really appreciate a scholarship like this.
July 8th, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 scholarship would be the most life changing event that could happen to me. I am pursuing a masters degree in environmental science and truly believe I can use my education to help the world, even to some small degree. However, the student loans that I will have to take to finance this dream may be debilitating upon graduation, forcing me into a job that may pay well, but not foster my dreams. As someone who has worked extremely hard to finance all of their own education, working jobs while taking a more than full course load, I would truly appreciate the award and create a better future for myself and others with it. I can not think of anything more liberating or motivating than graduating with my master’s degree debt free.
July 8th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000, I would pay the bills for the upcoming semester and pay my parents for the money they put down for the past semesters. The scholarship would alleviate some stress on both parties, and enable me to start saving to put my parents and a family friend through school. I had made a promise that if and when I become published, I would help my parents and friend through school and help them fulfill the dreams they had put on hold.
July 8th, 2010 | #
I am 25, married and have two children. I am furthering my education to better my life and the lives of my kids. If I were awarded a scholarship I would use it to pay for my tuition and go as far as I could.
July 8th, 2010 | #
I would be the first in my family to earn a Doctor of Education and to do it with out any momey from my pocket would be a blessing. I have two kids and money in our house doesn’t grow on trees.
July 8th, 2010 | #
Upon receiving the $50,000 reward, I would first jump up and down screaming and maybe cry, then quickly deposit it into my savings account. I would then pay off my next semester of college and all the books I will need. Next would be to buy my boyfriend a car that will not break down on him so he can finally make it to school and work with no worries. With the money that I have left, I would keep it in savings and work towards completing my education and pursuing my modeling career by traveling to bigger cities and meeting with well-known modeling agencies. The $50,000 would help cover a lot of gas for travelling. Thank you for this awesome opportunity. It feels good to know that people actually care about college students and our opinions.
July 8th, 2010 | #
50K would pay for a year and a half or so of college for me. It would be great to not need to spend every cent on furthering my education allowing me to save up for the final years of acquiring my masters degree.
July 8th, 2010 | #
I would go to pre-med
July 7th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000, I would continue my education through college and a master’s to be the BEST special-ed, elementary teacher I could be. I would take the time to complete my master’s fulltime, to begin with the best education I can get, WITHOUT the worry of having to immediately make as much $ as possible to pay back student loans. It would be a huge blessing, and a help to both me AND my future students!
July 7th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship worth 50,000 dollars, my parents wouldn’t have to worry about how they could help me pay for college. I would also be that much closer to realizing my dream of becoming a nurse.
July 7th, 2010 | #
If I earned $50,000 I would be able to finish my undergraduate without debt. I could also start applying to the medical schools I want to attend. No longer would my dreams of earning a PhD as a medical doctor seem impossible to girl from an average family with an average income. I would finally be able to buy myself a car, to transport myself to college. And pay for housing and books. It would relieve much of the stress that I feel financially, and the doubts and insecurity I feel about ever reaching my education goals.

I have worked very hard to raise a family. Now I am in school and working hard to become a MA then into nursing while I work in the field. However I just took in three grandchildren and could very much use a 50,000 scholarship. I could pay off my very expensive tuition and have some left to help my grandchildren start college.

If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I would use it to pay for college. With this I would be able to help my parents by not having to take out a loan. It would make things so much easier for them which will make them more proud of me. If I had this scholarship I will be able to not only get my degree in Elementary Education, but also be able to continue at school to get my Special Education Certification. With this I can help change the future of other children and their families.

50,000 Dollars would be absolutely wonderful, my family doesn’t get any help with loans. It’s not like we have a ton of money but we don’t qualify for any financial aid so that would be great

OMG.I am an international student who will attend Texas A&M University-Commerce as an undergraduate and my problem right now is plan how to pay for my school. receiving a $50,000 scholarship will be the most exciting and the best thing that will ever happen to me.

I will not have to worry anymore about paying the debts or anything after school but moving forward to another bigger step in life and that is finding a job to support my family.

Recently, I’ve fallen into financial hardship. I work very hard in school, and without scholarships, I won’t be able to finish my pharmacy program. I’m already half way through with my program, and truly want to become a clinical pharmacist. Pharmacy isn’t about the money to me, it’s about the patients. I want to work closely with physicians and offer the best possible therapeutic options for patients with chronic disease. I’m trying to get everything I can out of school so that I can truly serve patients and make their life better.

I would use this scholarship to help me eventually be a strong and sucessfull business woman. I have done sports my whole life and would never give up my talent. I’ve been a gymnastics coach all through high-school to the present. I worked at YMCA’s and personal trained some friends. I dream to some day open my own gym where I can train people how to become physically and educated in physical therapy as well. I am a hard-worker and I never give up. I know I am going to be very successful woman with my own business but, currently I am on my own with college and need help with getting money to continue my success at Penn State Behrend. This scholarship would be very much appreciated. Thanks for your time.
July 6th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000, I would use it for my last two years of college, then I would pay whatever I owed left from books and use the rest to help me through medical schooling. I am going to be a plastic surgeon for sure.
July 6th, 2010 | #
If i were to win this scholarship, I would be ultimately grateful. I would be able to further my education without the cost of tution being a major factor. I would be the happiest person alive, knowing that giving back to those who helped me is about to pay off.

July 6th, 2010 | #
I am in my first year of college and I love it. I am a mother of a 14 year old son. I do not get any help so this would take a great weight off my shoulders. I am trying to teach him if he works hard and pays attention in school he can have a good life. But it will take hard work and college. It took me over 20 years to know that I had to go to school, I hope he goes right out of high school.Thank you for this chance and I look forward to hearing from you.
July 6th, 2010 | #

$50,00.00 is definitely a lot of money. I am going to Brigham Young University July 22, 2010 and with this money,I would be able to pay for my schooling. I would have extra left over obviously after paying for all my tuition. With this extra money, I would think it a blessing to pay my tithing and to give the rest to my family of 15. My dad is an amazing elementary school teacher who works so hard for our family. My mother stays at home aannd cares for all of us children. I dont know any better people out there. We adopted 3 of these children from Ethiopia, Africa, and this money would greatly bless our lives.
July 4th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship I would move to Atlanta and go to my dream school, The Art Institute of Atlanta, instead of living at home with my parents and going to my local community college. Therefore, have of the money would go to my dream school and the other half would be invested in stock or put into a savings account so I can open my own business later on down the road after which I finish my education. I work in retail and I do not have the money to send myself to school and with my parents recent accident I am worried they will not be able to pay for my education either. To win this scholarship would be a safe guard for me to becoming one step closer to becoming a fashion designer and starting my own business.
July 4th, 2010 | #
I’m one of a set of triplets, the last to be born in a family of six kids. Raising us all was hard on my parents and they were never able to save money for any of us to go to college. $50,000 would help both my sisters and I go to college and reach for our dreams, not having to worry about money so much. And that way we wouldn’t have a $50,000 debt after college like my older sister, who eill be paying it off for the next 25 years.
July 4th, 2010 | #
with $50,000 i would pay all my tuition without having to take out student loans.
July 4th, 2010 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship, I’d pay off my trade school fees first and cover my trasportation. With the extra money I’d put it to good use by paying for extra college courses in psychology or writing. I wouldnt want my education to just end with trade school and with a $50,000 scholarship it I would have the chance to further my education sooner than expected and give me sound starting grounds to begin with.
July 4th, 2010 | #
if i won the 50,000 dollar sweepstakes i would get the best education in the medical field i could afford and also move me and my daughter into our own place.

If I won the $50,000 prize, I would finally finish my degree to become a pediatric registered nurse. I currently work full-time so the money would help me to stretch my personal money. The money would also benefit the five close family members with children, that are struggling with finding work.
July 3rd, 2010 | #
If I win scholarship, I can use the money to pay for my college tuition, which i could not afford. I came to the United State three years ago to study computer science. I just transferred to a new college, and I needed money to pay the tuition, otherwise I have to go back to my country without getting a degree.
July 3rd, 2010 | #
if i win a scholarship for 50,000 i would pay of all my debt from college and venture out to get my bachelors degree.

Use it all for school and pay for medical bills

I’ll Make sure the money is spent only on my education until I’ve graduate with bachelors. I have faith that I will be also have enough money to start my children a college fund.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
I would definitly pay all of my college fees. Even if I would be aloud to i would also help my brothers that need college help. After all of that i would definitly pay my parents back for all that they have payed for schooling!
July 2nd, 2010 | #
$50,000. i would used it to complete my Dr. degree. not i am now only starting my associates.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
I would use the scholarship money to finish my masters degree,go on to my doctorate, which enables me to start a business and support my family.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would use half of it for my student loans and finish paying off the rest of my tuition expenses. With the other half I would save about $10,000 for my children to start college in the future. With the last $15,000 I would put a down payment on a house to raise my two daughters in a suburban area away from all the crime.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 dollars, I would use it to pay off all current loans that I have (about 8,000 dollars so far not including the additional 8,000 I’m trying to take out) and I would use it to avoid taking out future loans. I would use it towards finishing school at Rider University, including paying for textbooks and any tutoring I may need. I only have 46 credits left to go before I obtain my bachelor’s degree from this university. My school’s tuition is 28,000 plus dollars a year, and to save money I commute to school. I also went to community college for two years and obtained my associate’s degree that way in an effort to save money. The time has come; however, for me to start taking out major loans and I am already having trouble getting approved for what I need. I do not have parents to help me, nor do I have a reliable co-signer. I have received some scholarship money from the university itself, but the amount is very little. So I need all the help that I can get. Anyway, the 50,000 dollar win that I would receive would go to obtaining a bachelor’s degree from Rider and a master’s degree from Rowan University. If there is anything left over after setting aside funds for education, I would use the remaining amount to purchase a used car to help me better commute to school instead of using the very much un-reliable public transportation system. If there is still any left, I’d either give it to my mom to help her pay for her own education since she is currently attending Rutgers University, or I’d use it to take a summer class or two at NYU in New York. I just know that I would spend it as wisely as possible and it would all go to benefiting my education. People don’t really go to college in my family and we are all struggling tremendously to make ends meet, so my winning this award, or any amount of award for that matter, would be a huge deal! Avoiding future loans and paying off my current loans would allow me to live a much less stressful life and it would allow me to have excellent credit. It would give me a much needed and appreciated excellent head start to a successful life. It would put me on track to being able to purchase a new car and a home without worrying about a bad credit report blocking my chances. It would allow me to focus on work and bills of basic necessity. It would basically benefit my life in more ways than one, because without the woes of college debt, my future is made brighter and my education is appreciated and enjoyed so much more. Winning would make me an all around happier and less stressed out person and would give my future the much needed positive head start I’ve been yearning for!
July 2nd, 2010 | #
I would use a 50,000 dollar scholarship to pay for every expense that is owed for loans and to my family for my degree. After everything is paid back I would use the rest to get through my junior and senior years and ideally graduate with no debt. Working year around and saving as much money as possible has always had to be my top priority. It would be such a blessing to be able to focus more on school with out the stress of trying to save every penny.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will pay off all my loans and finish school.

July 2nd, 2010 | #
With $50,000, I’d pay for my college expenses primarily. With any remaining out of the $50,000, I would take care of future (once I move out) housing expenses, such as furnature. In short, the $50,000 would help me to get my live started on the right track.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If i were to win this scholarship i would be able to go back to school and be the first one in my family to go to college. I would really like to be a nurse and take care and give back to others. I would like a better job.

If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to continue my education as a sophomore musical theatre major at Howard University. It would cover the expenses for the upcoming school year. It would help me to persue my dreams, but my main goal is to be the perfect role model for my sibilings. I want them to know that they too can reach for the sky and touch it; this scholarship would surely help.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
WOW!!! If I had the opportunity to win 50,000 dollars; I first would pay my tithes, and offerings, pay back student loans, tuition for college, books I would need for classes, blessing others who did not have the opportunity to receive the scholarship. Example: Helping students, teachers, and children, etc…
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would use it to help pay for college. I am a sophomore in college now so it would help me pay for a little more than 3 semesters, which would also mean that I would be able to take out a fewer amount of loans, which would strengthen my future financial situation. As I have already taken out 2 loans and getting ready for 2 more, this would help me get through college more than anything else.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I win $50000 I’ll use it for MBA programm. I’ve been admitted to the MBA programm but I haven’t got enough finanacial resource to pay for this education. Any way I think that helping people to make career and assisting them in making the dream to be true is really something good. In future I hope to make some kind of educational fund which will help talented people to pay for education.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won a $5,000.00 scholarship I would apply it towards my books and tuition for Penn State University- Hazleton. Being that I will be attending this university in the fall of 2010 it would be a big help and berden off my shoulders. Every little bit of money helps and this amount of money can do so much for me when it comes down to paying my bill off.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
I never thout in a after i graduated from HS that i would go to college. As a matter a fact I was so sure! I stuggled alot in school, and didnt believe I had it in me to do college. 8 years later I have to beautiful little girls who I want to give the world to. I discovered talents that I have over the years and believe I can make a difference in our youths life! I work overtime and still stuggle. If I won the money I would open a college fund account and work part time to focus more on my studying during the day rather than at night so that i could spend quality time with my girls
I need and want this scholarship sooooo bad! Thank you for the oppurtunity.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If i win a scholarship of 50,0000 dollars I would pay off all my loans. I would pay for my housing because my school messed up my paperwork; so I’m on my own due to being the product of a sinlge parent low-income upbringing. I would be able to quit both of my jobs and take spring term to catch back up on credits due to paying bills for my mother. It would automatically go toward funding my expenses next year. Finally I would pay off my previous school expenses to get my records released and finally be caught up on my credits;allowing me to graduate on time and continue into my masters in Physical Therapy. But if at all possible if any of that money were left over I would finish my youth golf program at my old job for at risk youth in my community.
July 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 dollars I would invest a portion of it in the Photography equipment that I will need for my career. I have my eye on the Nikon D700. I am excited that I will be starting my photography program soon and would love to develop my skills with a camera that would transfer well into my professional life. A substantial portion of it would cover the cost of tuition naturally. I would, however, put a portion of it aside to fund a trip to take coast to coast photographs of life in the United States. I like the idea of it for a subject matter for a gallery show; which would help me secure a place in graduate school. Thank you for your consideration. -Laura

If I could win $50,000 I would put that money aside to study veterinarian medicine in Canada. I would use that money to learn how to cure and help both domestic and exotic animals. I would also use it to get a business degree so that I could start my own business and eventually open my own practice. I think that it would be fascinating to learn how to cure diseases, diagnose ailments, and mend bones. I also think it would be wonderful to learn more about exotic animal’s ailments and how they are cured.
Getting into veterinarian school is tough all around but paying for it, if you get accepted, is even harder. I think, overall, it would be a wonderful life experience to have. I also think that if I could establish myself as a successful veterinarian, I could fulfill my potential as being a worthy and helpful doctor that helps our animal friends
July 1st, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 dollars, I wouldn’t have to worry about scrounging around to be able to pay for college. I’d be able to afford it and graduate without debt. I’d probably even be able to fulfill my dream of studying abroad!

Winning 50,000 dollars would mean my future being forever changed. I am currently working towards my helicopters private pilots licence. Flying helicopters has always been my dream. And now that I have took a step forward and started the pilot program, I am afraid I will not be able to find the rest of the funding needed to complete the program. The 50,000 dollars would be enough to pay for me recieve my commercial licence. Once I do, I hope to become a Life Flight pilot.
July 1st, 2010 | #

If I were fortunate enough to be the winner of this incredible scholarship, it would go toward my long-awaited teaching degree. I really just want to help kids for the rest of my life. I feel as though I would be a great teacher for young children, and I long to help them learn as much as they can. It’s so important to have someone who believes in you when you’re young, and as a teacher, I would be sure to support each student in his/her endeavors. I would no longer be a financial burden on others, and I would be able to get out of debt, which would be a miracle! Thank you for considering this application.
July 1st, 2010 | #
My older sister and I are both enrolled in college. If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship, we could both significantly lessen our financial burdens with paying for school. I would be able to study abroad in Spain, which is one of my biggest dreams. A scholarship of this amount would really decrease my stress, which means I would be able to enjoy the college educational experience even more.
July 1st, 2010 | #

If I was to win a scholarship, I would not only be able to get a fresh start in life. But also transfer from my current school to a local campus. This would not only benefit me, but also my family. I currently work full time and I am very unhappy with my job. If I could afford to go to college I could give myself a Life that I would not be able to have other wise. I really want to make my mom proud. After all she has gave up so much for me!
July 1st, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 i would pay for my school. My dad is disabled and my mom brings home $300 a week, and that’s it for 4 people.

All my life I have been taught, mostly by my mother, the importance of getting a higher education. By her example of getting a college degree, I can see the difference it makes to be well educated and the advantages it gives when the unexpected happens. My mom is a very smart woman and enjoys learning. She has always been able to find good jobs, when needed, that pay well and helped where my dad’s paycheck may have lacked. She had landed a great job five years ago. A little over three years later, the unexpected happened. My dad passed away. We then had to live off my mom’s paycheck alone. Had she not gotten a college education that landed her a great job, I know my family would have lost our house and would have been poor, probably living on the streets. With my dad gone and most of my mom’s paycheck going to bills and taking care of my three younger siblings, I’m struggling to pay for college. I have seen what a college education has done for my family and what it can do for my future family. If I were to win $50,000 that would mean so much to me. I wouldn’t have to worry about how to pay for college and I’ll be able to get a degree to start my career to help take care of my future family if something unexpected were to happen.

June 29th, 2010 | #

If I were to win a scholarship, I would first pay off all of my loans and pay off my current tuition cost. I have one more semester before I receive my Bachelor’s, and then I would use the rest of the money to fund my Masters degree.
June 29th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would be that much closer to stepping over a mountain that keeps so many people from achieving their dreams. The faith I have in achieving all things would soar for every dollar that puts me closer to shortening the debt I could be in. If I had a $50,000 scholarship, I’d be greatful.
June 29th, 2010 | #
I would easily fund my MBA program without worrying about source of funds. That would be a real blessing!
June 29th, 2010 | #
I would complete my AS degree and start a BA program in business.
June 29th, 2010 | #
I’m the most happiest person and so much grateful for a wonderful blessings. I will used the scholarship for my masters which i will enroll on September 2010. Also pay for my credit in my previous tuition fee. And if their remaining amount i will share it to my handled students to buy books and projects at school. Since these students are living in a remote areas.
June 29th, 2010 | #
I will be blessed if I am honored with a $50,000 scholarship. It would mean so much for my family and I. Being the only child in my family who’s attending fall semester of 2010 it may seem that I can pay off my tuition but it’s not that easy. I barely have enough to pay for my tuition and books. Having the scholarship would help a humongous amount. Not only with school but with my family, bills, and a lot of other stuff. Sadly my family’s planning on moving out of state so living by myself would be really hard because of all the bills. So this scholarship is more than I could ask for. Thanks for giving this chance for students to have a wonderful opportunity with their education.
June 29th, 2010 | #
If i would get this scholarship i would pay every penny for school. I am 20 years old and graduating in October with my PN license, but.. my tuition for school is, $28,000.00 which i am currently paying out of my pocket. It is hard going through nursing school as a full time student and worrying about that! I am also planning on furthering my education by getting my RN online as soon as I graduate!
(it would be a miracle!!)
June 28th, 2010 | #
This would be a very big blessing for my mother and I, because i don’t work and my mother tries very hard to provide me with everything i need in life. Also, with my brother in jail and her having to pay all the bills on her own leaves us with little to no money to spare. If I win a scholarship it would mean the world to me so that i can further my education.
June 28th, 2010 | #
If i won the scholarship… i would pay the rest of my undergrad tuition…
June 28th, 2010 | #
my younger brother and i are both currently enrolled in college. 50k would enable me to pay off a huge portion of both our student loans and put us in a more reasonable financial circumstance for the future.
June 28th, 2010 | #
50K would be a blessing! I never had the chance to go to college because my parents could not afford it and now as an adult I am currently pursuing my dream college degree. I am a mother and a wife and work full time so money is very tight!
It would be a relief knowing I could finish my degree and find a better job and not having to worry about paying loans. I would be very grateful!
June 28th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 it would be so good for me. That money would allow me to return to the school and pay the studies of my son. Being a single mother is not easy.
June 28th, 2010 | #
IF I WERE TO WIN THIS SCHOLARSHIP. I WILL NOT WORRY ABOUT PAYING MY TUITION FEE ANYMORE. I HAVE A DREAM TO REACH!
June 28th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I would go to college and be the first in my family to ever attend college. I would try my hardest to get my family and I somewhere in life. Winning this scholarship would mean alot for me.
June 28th, 2010 | #
If i won $50 K in scholarship I would be the happiest girl on this planet. My family has had some many hardships this year that it would totally help us all to secure funds for my education and put them in a much better financial place.
June 28th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to actually go to college. Right now I am currently a single student living in their own apartment. I have to pay for things like rent, electricity, insurances, and many other things. With my current financial situation, I will not be able to attend college this year and get the degree I would love to have. Winning this scholarship would help me in so many ways that I can’t even begin to describe. I will be able to attend the University of Akron and become a musical therapist with this scholarship.
June 28th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I would continue to pursue my degree and then look to help others that need help. The scholarship would help my parents and take some of the pressure off.
June 27th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship it would truly be a blessing because it would mean i can finish school and releave my paarents of the burden of struggling to put me in school so they can start enjoying life.I will finally be able to go to school without worrying about where an going to get the money to cover a semester
June 27th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would first cry. Tears of joy of course! It would help me become one step closer to becoming a physical therapist. I would be able to do more volunteering and observations at clinics instead of working two jobs and still not making nowhere near enough money to put myself through school.
June 27th, 2010 | #
There are so many wonderful things that I could do with 50,000 dollars. But, the bills will have to come first. I would pay off my loans from the college that I am enrolled in and use the rest for my household bills.
June 27th, 2010 | #
If I win that $50k in scholarships I would be so happy because we have a big family with like 6 children and I’m the oldest. I would use half the money for school and the rest on the bills and college for my little siblings, who will be in college soon.
June 26th, 2010 | #
After many attempts to fund my education and being let down in that department despite having the grades and community envolvement; I would use all of the money to finally fund my education so that I can actually graduate. I want to teach English on the college level and I can only do this with money for school tuition.
June 26th, 2010 | #
$50,000 would help me pay for a good year or two of school, which would really help since the track I’m on requires atleast 6 years.
June 26th, 2010 | #
If I win, I would be able to go to school and not leave for a year just to work and gain money to go back to school. The chances of me going back to school once i leave will be very low since I’ll have to work harder to have a place to stay and I will be very far behind in my studies. If I won I’d have the chance to make something of myself.
June 26th, 2010 | #
If i were to get this scholarship it would not only help me but it will keep my parents from digging them selves in a hole of debt trying to take out loans for me to go to the University of Colorado Denver. It would help me also so because of course I’d be in school but i would also be able to focus a lot better because i would have the thought that my parents are probably back at home suffering trying to pay back loans, and feed my sisters and my nephew. If i were to get this scholarship i would never let my family nor the people who gave it to me down. I would live my life letting them know that the scholar ship is the best thing they have done for me.

June 26th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship or $50,000 I would continue going to school and and graduate with my degree then go on to Chiropractic school
June 25th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I could allow my pillow to dry since I’m always crying wondering about my families finance situation. Sometime I just want to put my education on halt so that I could commit fully to a job so that my family doesn’t have to worry about where the next meal is coming from or if we’ll be able to afford a roof over out head. I won’t give up because I know my education will bring much more blessings and having a $50,000 scholarship will make things a lot less stressful so that I can maintain good grades.
June 25th, 2010 | #
go to japan studying abroad if i had 50k
June 25th, 2010 | #
If i had 50k i would use it to fund my trip to japan for study abroad pay off my student loans and graduate on time
June 25th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, I would be so grateful. I am no longer thinking where to get money to pay for my tuition. My father did not really want me to go to college because he cannot afford my education with my sister, who is also going to college.But I still enrolled and got admitted to a 4-year institution to take up nursing in the fall. So if I win, I would be glad and I am not going to waste this money because I will really study hard to graduate from college and help my family as well.
June 25th, 2010 | #
If i won a $50,000 scholarship i would pay for my whole college tuition. $50,000 is more than enough for me to get my bachelors degree in criminal justice. If there were to be extra money, I would pay my student loans that i got. I never once in my life earned or won $1,000 dollars, now that im in college, i am already $10,000 in debt. so a $50,000 scholarship would be the greatest.
June 25th, 2010 | #
If I was to win the scholarship I would use it to pay my tuition and continue my education. I would also help pay my bills and try to find a home for my family. I would like to go back to school to get a better job so that I can help my daughter further her life.
June 25th, 2010 | #
I have one parent working in my home. $50,000 is hardly more than what my household makes in a year. All through my life I have seen struggles with money and not enough jobs to go around. The field that I want to go into will have job security and high demands in a couple years. I have a motto that I continuously tell myself, “forget what you want and remember what you deserve.” My yearbook this year asked seniors for a quote and right next to my name are those exact words. This last summer I moved to Minnesota. I was so scared to start my senior year at a new school. Most people say that senior year is the best year of your life and I have to agree. After only two weeks of classes being back in session I was crowned homecoming queen 2009. My goal wasn’t to become a representative of my brand new school it was to make friends and show my teachers respect. Through that I wasn’t the “new girl.” I became hope for people who did not think anything like that could ever happen. I desire not only my senior year to be the best year of my life but many years to come. I will strive towards my career goals of having a financially stable life and a job that I will love because I get to show patients that there is always a bright side. I know that I deserve to be exactly what I want to be. I deserve to be happy with all opportunities that are given to me. I feel that I deserve this scholarship. My future would be even brighter!
June 25th, 2010 | #
Follow my dream..go for the full psychology course of master degree
June 25th, 2010 | #
if i won 50K i would pay the balance not covered in grants and scholarships to avoid taking out loans
June 25th, 2010 | #
If I am lucky enough to have $50,000 in scholarship I will be able to go to school full time and finish by 2013. My dad works more than 40 hours a week to support me and my family and is saving up to retire. The faster I graduate the better it will be on all of my family. But at this pace being part-time since I cannot afford to be full time , it breaks my heart. To make matters worse I am unemployed and can not find a job and so is my mom. I really hope I can get even $10,000 just to get me started, so I can get my B.A. in Business Management and give myself a better life, and take a load of stress off my parents.
June 25th, 2010 | #
Pay for first 4 years of college and allow me to continue MA education and beyond.
June 24th, 2010 | #
If I could receive a $50,000 scholarship I would complete four years of college. This would relieve a lot of stress and pressusre from me during the four years. I would then only have to worry about paying for the following 3 years.
June 24th, 2010 | #
If I win a $50k scholarship I would pay off my undergraduate tuition and pay back undergrad loans. I would help out my mother who is a single mother because she is strugglin a little bit with bills. Also I would get my somemore clothes and personal items and save the resr for medical school tuition.
June 24th, 2010 | #

June 24th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 dollars, I could finally pay off my credit cards that have been suffocating due to my tuitions at school. I would be able to tuck some money aside, so I wouldn’t have to rely on credit cards as much. I would also be enabled to continue my education without feeling like I am suffocating.
June 24th, 2010 | #
$50K would mean so much for me. I could go to college and be the first to finish. My family isn’t the most supportive and despite that i would still want to go to school and prove everything and one wrong. It would mean my life.
June 24th, 2010 | #
If I got 50k i would use it on tuition and rent, I wouldnt have to work full time as a student as well as holding a job. I would have some time to breathe!
June 24th, 2010 | #
If I had $50k, I would use that to pay off my current student loan, and get a master degree for career advancement.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
pay for my MBA tuitions
June 23rd, 2010 | #

June 23rd, 2010 | #
I will save the money for opening my personal business in the future.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay for undergrad and grad school and also help my brother pay for school as well.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
It would be a blessing if I won $50,000 because my husband and I are curently in Grad school. We both work and are trying to balance it all. We also have a one year old child, whom I try to pour myself into. It would help me feel at ease knowing that we would be ok. I would also be the first person in my family to recieve my masters.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship i can return to school. i only was there for quarter because after that i couldn’t afford it any more so i have been at home trying to win scholarships since last year and has still not won one yet. Winning this scholarship would mean the world to me.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 dollar scholarship I would get to stay in school for I am having troubles with payments at this moment. I would get pursue my career as a physical or occupational therapist. I would get a chance to help children with special needs like my brother; who has Cerebral Palsy. I would get the opportunity to make miracles happen like so many of the therapists that have had the great opportunity to help my brother; take his first steps and to see him talk etc. (on account the doctors said he would never eat talk or walk on his own, which today he can do all of these.)
hopefully I will be blessed like my brother and hopefully receive help with my tuition.
thank-you so much for your time
June 23rd, 2010 | #
If I got $50,000 then I would give most of it away, honestly. A percentage I would donate to this website for helping me because I been praying forever for an opportunity such as this and that is how I would show my gratitude. I would save some, pay off bills, donate to charities and form a financial plan so I will never lack again. I would be smart with my money and use to benefit not only myself but the well-being of others as well.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay for my four or more years of collage. From there I would use it to help me out on everything that i would need to fulfill my dream of becoming a nurse to help out those who need it and being 18 and on my own with a minimum wage job this would help out a lot. This would cause me less worry about school and i would not have to work as hard with balancing school and work and focus more on my education.
June 23rd, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship I would finish school and not have to struggle so hard to provide for my kids.
June 23rd, 2010 | #

If I get a scholarship I am going to go to college for diesel mechanics
June 22nd, 2010 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship I would finish paying my senior year of college for my B.A. in Criminology. I would also be able to pay for my master’s degree in Public Administration. I would also put some money into an account to start a college tuition fund for my son. I would be able to pay off my student loan and get an apartment and pay a couple of months rent in advance so that I won’t have to worry about having a place for me and my 9 month old son to live. Winning the $50,000 would really help me, a young single mother and a student who has a very strong drive to advance her education.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
I would invest it into graduate school considering I’m paying for all 7 years of my schooling to become a Doctor of Physical Therapist. I’m a firm believer in hard work and getting yourself to where you want to go. I would try to buy a duplex and create more of an income besides the summer job I have now. Which is all I have to pay for my education currently. 50,000 would be a big step forward to start my life and get me to where I want to be.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 dollar scholarship, I would start crying because of the overwhelming amount of happiness and relief. This scholarship would be paying for my 4 years Southern Utah University, and it would be giving me the opportunity to have a wonderful college experience without always having to worry about how to pay for school- because that is the biggest speed-bump to get over right now.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
If i were to win a $50,000 scholarship i would use it to help pay school tuition, rent/food. i would also continue to go to school and take specialty classes. I would open up a solid business to serve the community and give customers deals that they can afford
June 22nd, 2010 | #
i would be able to attend the college that i want and not settle and also better support my family financially
June 22nd, 2010 | #

I would help them out also with the money that would be left over after I finish paying for my college. Life would be a little more easier and less stressful
June 22nd, 2010 | #
In this economy you have to have a college degree to get a good job but college is getting more and more expensive. If I win a scholarship, I will be very grateful. It will me to be able to go to school and fulfill my dream. I am 19 years old and I have been putting off going to school for financial reasons. My lifetime goal is to become a pastry chef and have my own bakery. I want to go to Johnson & Wales University, but the only thing holding me back is the money to go. I have two younger siblings, a brother who just graduated high school and a sister who graduates next year. If I am able to go to college, I will be the first person to have a college degree in my family. This scholarship would also help me to be able to go to school without having to take out alot of student loans which could cause me to go into debt. This scholarship will be a great blessing to me. I would like to thank you in advance for the opportunity of even considering me and allowing me to apply. May God continue to bless and keep you.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
i will pay my tuition and continue my education and pay my student loan too
June 22nd, 2010 | #
If i would win any kind of scholarship, it would greatly help me finish my bachelor’s degree in math. Also, it would help me achieve my goal of eventually attending law school.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship i will invest it on my studies in abroad. Here in Philippines, its very hard to support our own education due to poverty. To have a degree is like climbing the Mt. Everest in Nepal. I want to become a physician someday for me to be able to help my fellow countrymen in terms of medical needs.
June 22nd, 2010 | #
I would be happy and delighted to get free money to support my future expencises with college. Its hard to work and be in school especially when im helping my mother and brother(which is in college also). It would take some pressure from my shoulders to have a little help.
June 21st, 2010 | #
If i won a scholarship I wouldpay for my schooling it is the most important thing to me right now in my life besides my son. I Am a single parent and this wind a scholarship takes care of alot of extra things like book and supplies that i have to pay for out of my own money.It would also take alot of strress out of being a full time student and working full time. i would have room to relax a little and narrow my focus to what matters to me the most……
June 21st, 2010 | #
it would solve all the problems lol
June 21st, 2010 | #
If I were to win the $50000 scholarship, I would use it to continue my education in Humanities, obtain my degree and continue with a Master’s in Socialogy.
It would be a welcome relief to be able to study without having to worry about funding.
June 21st, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 or the $50,000 scholarship I would definitely pay for my college tuition for the next 3 years and buy myself a car and laptop so I could find a job and actually support myself and pay to put my nephew in daycare for my sister.
June 21st, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay off my college tuition. What ever is left I would help my parents with bills.
June 21st, 2010 | #
That would be enough to go to MIT to get a computer science Phd. Then everyone would have to refer to me as doctor, including my brothers. But seriously the only thing stopping me from going to MIT to get a Phd is the money.
June 21st, 2010 | #
Lord willing, if I was able to win this amount of money. I will go to school full time and praise God for it. This is my chance to better myself. I do not want to be a failure. There is endless nights were I just can not sleep,because when i was younger they put me in the program called R.S.P. And it just mess up my education. Plus i use to travel alot with U.S.A. boxing team all over the world. But now look where I am,a nobody, but willing to be a some body. I am just thinking about my future, and I would love to have a better job. So I can take care of my parents that work so hard in taking care of six kids. My parent never had a good education and they have no retirement plan because they just do not have the money to get one. There already in there 50’s. And out of my whole family I believe I will be the only one to take care of them and hopefully one day i will get marry and take care of my family as well.
June 21st, 2010 | #

June 21st, 2010 | #

June 19th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would mean a lot to me because I live in a country which is not in a good economical condition, and our school system is not accredited nor respected around the world. If i earn that scholarship I will be able to apply for Harvard University and gain a world wide recognised certificate which will allow me to work in America.
June 19th, 2010 | #
If I was the recipient of winning the scholarship I woulld pay for my college tuition. It would also be encouraging for other peers like myself to believe that they can recieve and apply for scholarships to recieve a degree of their choice. I would like to be able to pay for college as well go off to law school. I would want to help those who have any legal problems. Just like Gandhi said ” You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
June 19th, 2010 | #
If I Won The Scholarship It Would Help Me Pay For The Rest Of My Schoolin And I Wouldnt Have To Do Any More Financial Aid. It Would Also Help Me Pay Off The Loans I Borrow For School.
June 19th, 2010 | #
I have one and a half years of college left, and a scholarship like this would allow me to pay off my costs that have accrued over the years. Also I am planning on getting married within 2 years to my girlfriend, and it would allow me to be debt free when I start my life with her.
June 19th, 2010 | #
I would pay my school tution so that i wouldnt have to worry about cost of school. i would then be able to focus more on school
June 18th, 2010 | #
I would follow my passion of becoming a concept artist. Going back to school is a long awaited dream.
June 18th, 2010 | #
If i had 50K I’d go to BYU
June 18th, 2010 | #
I would pay for my private school which I will be attending this fall. Instead of taking out a $50,000 loan that would cover my school tution competely, a scholarship like this would make life a lot less stressful so I would not have to have a financial hardships down the road.
June 18th, 2010 | #
I would invest it into my film:
A story that takes field of dreams to San Francisco and the Colter family. Ron Colter is a freshman in college knows his family moved from the east coast to the west for one thing, Baseball. He knows that he could have been in the Major Leagues, he also knows he doesn’t want to be. When the family patriarch, Ron’s Grandpa (Roger) dies from prostate cancer, the family is thrown together again for the first time since Ron went to college. Some of his relatives, rather ridiculously blame him for his grandpa’s death, but they don’t know that he also blames himself.
June 18th, 2010 | #
I would pay for grad school tuition and books or use it to pay off my undergrad loans…they are killing me
June 18th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will be able to take some financial burden off of my family of 6. My parents are still in the process of helping our relatives move back to New Orleans after hurricane Katrina ruined many of their homes. A scholarship to attend college would be a huge help and relieve some stress in our home.
June 17th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship I would have a chance to go to college. I want to further my education to help change the world in a small way. If I go to college I will hopefuly earn a degree in elementary education. I have a dream of maybe going to a third world county one summer to help teach poor children. If and when I teach in the usa I will help make a difference in the childrens lives here. I want to create a better world one child at a time.
June 17th, 2010 | #
if i had that money, i would totally pay off my student loans, get a better running car, and finish up my current education!!!
June 17th, 2010 | #
SInce I don’t want my parents to have to pay for my college education I would be able to pay for tuition, pay off my car and have plenty to spend on necessary school related items such as textbooks.
June 17th, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay my tuition and supplies to get my RN. $50,ooo could help me not to have to work while I go to school and free me up to get the most of my education and do well. Not that I cant do well anyway, but it would take allot of stress away.
June 17th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would use it entirely for school. No longer having parents to depend on, my educational experiences have been a roller coaster. Because I am not able to go straight into a University, $50,000 would help me get through my first 4years at the community college and then at least get me started into a University. I am not sure what profession to jump into, but I do know that I wont be able to make it with out my education.

If I were to win this $50,000 scholarship, I could take the next steps in my life to be successful. Since I am attending a university at the same time that my sister is, money is a constant struggle for my dad. This money would be used to pay for my tuition, and housing at my university to ease the stress on him in this economy. I am a cheerleader at a D1 Univeristy that receives no financial help towards being an athlete and full time student. Having this scholarship would improve my chances of being able to pay for the expenses of being a non-funded athlete, and the possibility of continuing to represent my school. Thank You.

I would definitely pay for college.
June 17th, 2010 | #
I would pay the late taxes on my house so I don’t lose it then I would use the remainder for my graduate education.
June 17th, 2010 | #
The money will pay for my tuition. It would be a great help, considering the difficulties I go through in paying for my education, being raised by a single parent.
June 17th, 2010 | #
The money I get will definitely go into paying for my tuition.
Raised by a single parent, I have had some difficulties paying for my education, however my determination to get the best of education has brought me this far and this money will definitely contribute to me achieving that dream!
June 17th, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 scholarship paying for school would not be a hassle for me, well for the first two years at least.
June 17th, 2010 | #
I would pay my tuition, and be able to pay daycare while I attend college!
June 17th, 2010 | #
If I had the scholarship, I would be able to more easily afford the tuition costs when I graduate from community college and head to CSU Chico. The money would go towards not only the tuition costs but the costs for a dorm as well.
June 17th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, it would mean a lot to me and my mother. She does really work hard and care about my education. Sometimes I am wondering if I should not go to a good university because it requires a lot of money, and it would obviously be a big pressure for my mother and me. But, on the other side, good universities give you good diplomas, so it gives you more opportunities to find a job. I understand and consider both aspects. However, I can’t really ignore all that tension and concern about me enrolling or be in a good university. So, if I get to win this scholarship, it would be an exit to all that concern and problem. I do care about my education, and I am willing to learn as much as I can, but sometimes I think that is not enough if I lack of essential resources such as money. I do really need money, if I want to get a better education and future. Although, I do wish and hope that one day, money could stop being more than a priority.

If I would win 50,000 dollars, i would put it towards my college studies. It would pay for me to attend my dream college and major in Actuarial Science. I would put this money towards my education, my housing, my books and some of my loans so when i complete college i could have a happy life and enjoy my job without putting all of my money towards my expensive loans
June 16th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship worth 50,000 I would be one happy camper due to the distance from my collage and the scholarships I do have I would have 2 years of schooling paid off and would most likly be working on more scholarships so I could finsh my last two.
June 16th, 2010 | #
I would love to win a $50,000 scholarship because I cannot afford college on my own and keep a roof over my head. I’m on the road to disability at the moment at 20 years old with a progressive back problem, as well as having many other medical conditions. I would use the $50,000 to get myself through college in order to “pay it forward” to someone else in need later on in life. I’m going to school for Genetic Research or Gastroenterology because I want to help people. I grew up in and out of hospitals and I understand the personal aspect of it.
June 16th, 2010 | #
HI, If I were to receive $50,000 there is no doubt it would be extremely helpful. My goal is to attend Nursing school and with that money it would help me pay off a large portion of tuition. We are living hard times and unfortunately not everyone will be able to afford it with out help. I thank you for the opportunity.
June 16th, 2010 | #
If i would win $50,000,I would be so blessed and so happy. My parents wouldn’t be so stressed about finding ways to pay for college since my grades have flattered and I cant even get the only scholarship I’m allowed to get. It would be able to finish my college education stress free and not worry where the rest of the money is coming from and not have my parents pay. I would like to accomplish this all on my own. Thank and please considering me in your evaluation.
June 16th, 2010 | #
With a fifty thousand dollars, I would start paying off my loans and ease the burden of my family by paying the rest of my tuition.
June 16th, 2010 | #
IF I won the $50,000 scholarship I would go to a school I really wanted to go to like FIT or Berkely college in NY. Ever scince I first started high school it been my dream to be the small town girl making it to big city NY working in fashion and getting to work fashion week. With this scholarship I would be able to afford to study my major in NY for fashion advertsing and marketing, and not have to worry about all the massive amounts of debt I’m throwing myself into that keeps me from really going all the way to my big dream.
June 16th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would go to a school I really wanted to go to that has the major I’m really interested in, Fashion advertising and marketing. Insted of going to a school the has just marketing. Ever scince I started high school it has always been my dream to work in NY for fashion week. With this scholarship I could go to a school of my choice, study my specific feild, and not have to worry how much its going to cost in loans. Getting one step closer to my dream.
June 16th, 2010 | #
With the 50,000 scholarship i would pay for as much for my college education that this amount allows me to do so. This would really help my situation because my parents are having a hard time with the whole college payments and being able to receive this scholarship would help both of us specially to ease the stress off of them
June 16th, 2010 | #
With this scholarship I could pay for at least my first year of law school. I am a graduate from the University of Central Florida with a BS in Criminal Justice and a BS in Legal Studies. I worked full time my entire under grad in order to pay for school and now I am finding it extremely hard to stay on track for graduate school. You arent suppose to work during law school so I am exremely stressed and worried that I wont find the money to attend.
June 16th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would use the money towards my college tuition so that I would have less loans to borrow.
June 16th, 2010 | #
$50,000, I would use it to get through college, pay off my loans, and then use the education to join the Navy as an officer
June 16th, 2010 | #
If I were to win this scholarship I would be able to pay off my current debt and finish my 4 year B.A.Marketing degree in 3 years! and I would be able to get my masters as well. This would also alleviate my parents financial burden, since they have paid for all my education. I am very grateful of all that my parents have done for me and I would like to present to them a B.A. and a Masters degree in appreciation for all their help.
June 16th, 2010 | #
if I was to win this tremendous amount of money it would help me pay for the rest of my loans and also help my sister as she starts her first year in college, this will help me get into nursing school also and help me further my education. Not many of my family memebrs went to college so i would like to be one of the few that does and also i would use the rest of the money to help my father pay for his extreme amount of medical bills from treatments of his cancer!! This would be a great blessing from only god above if i had $50,000
June 16th, 2010 | #
If I were blessed to win the scholarship, this would give me an opportunity to complete my PHD in Nursing Education. I have returned to school after 30 years and my son and I are both going to school. Unfortunately I am still working fulltime and trying to complete my Masters in Nursing education with the hopes of completing my PHD if I win the scholarship.
June 15th, 2010 | #
I would pay for school and also go to grad school
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I was to win $50 thousand dollars, I would use it toward my college loans so I can have them payed off with no worries. It would help me out so much because I would be able to be on my own and sho my parents that I can do it.
June 15th, 2010 | #
I would give 10% to my church first as a tithe, give my parents money they need to pay off debt, and then use rest towards college.
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I have the opportunity to have $50,000 I would do many things with it. First, I would immediately buy a car since I lost my car in a car accident and it has been difficult for me to move from place to place without a transportation. Secondly, I would help my mom financially to pay all debts so my siblings and I can just focus in studying instead of working and going to school. We are a family of six and I am the oldest my parents are divorced and we receive a minimum support from my dad therefore I would really like to help them financially somehow. Finally, I would also like to share some of the money to the needing people and some other money for the material or supplies for school like lab top, camera, etc since I am going for Graphic Designer and all of these are necessary for the career. I would really like for my mom to be proud of me and my siblings even though all the problems we all have passed since we decided to get a better life moving from Mexico to the United States.
June 15th, 2010 | #
There are many things in life that could benefit from $50,000.00. However, if I received the scholarship, I would apply it towards my educational loans that I currently have so my payments would be less than anticipated. I thank you in advance for the scholarship consideration.
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship to college. I would continue going to college until I received my Ph.D in criminology. I am limited to the number of classes I can take because I cannot receive financial aid or any other form of assistance for unknown reasons!!!:(
June 15th, 2010 | #
Simple, I would pay off my existing student loans.
June 15th, 2010 | #
The scholarship money would help me extremely. I have been attending my university for three years and my parents have not been able to pay a dollar. My classes are all pre-med and I have not been able to take a summer off to work and save a little tuition money. I was living around campus thid year and had to move back home and commute because my loans were exceeded. The money would help me greatly because I need to pay off my many debts and be able to live on campus to study with other students in pre-med. I also broke my left arm four weeks ago and lost my only chance to make some money for school.
June 15th, 2010 | #
I would use the money to pay for college because my financial aid is running out. I quit working so tha I could finish school and my funds or low for me to finish school. Every year I have to appeal my financial eligibility so this will really help!
June 15th, 2010 | #
On the news the other day, a man, due primarily to the hardships of money tried to kill his entire family that also included his three-year-old son and his wife. In the American economy of today the stress created by financial problems is growing and my family and I also are suffering. Thus the opportunity to earn scholarships is a blessing. I am a full time student who is dependent on her parents who own a private enterprise, which is about to be forced into closing. We are planning to find another job opportunity in the coming months as well as moving to more affordable lodgings. Thinking about paying for college independently is hard enough, but by winning scholarships that stress would alleviate said stress exponentially. This is America, the land of dreams, my parents are trying to keep theirs of living off the land afloat, while I am trying to fulfill my dreams through the completion of my education at college.
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would of course pay for school. After I graduated high school, my family moved so my dad could have more work. I had to move out of the house. I’ve gone to the community college for 2 years and decided I want to become a teacher. I dont have money to afford that much school and my family can’t help me. I want to be a health teacher so I can help students become health conscience and make a difference in the community. $50,000 would allow me to pay for school since I only work part time and cant afford school.
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I were to win this scholarship I would be amazed and would greatly appreciate it. I am 19 years old and married with two kids. I was going to college then had to drop out because my second child was born prematurely and then we found out my husband has cancer. So I put my education on hold. Now I am a stay at mom and wife and is going back to school online. This year has been the hardest for my family but education is important to me because I am the only in my family to go to college and is planning to graduate. I am keeping my head held high to show everyone and my children that even when when times are tough whatever you put your mind to, you can accomplish it.
June 15th, 2010 | #
I woould have alot less money problems
June 15th, 2010 | #
If I were to win 50,000 bucks in school money I would pay off my student loans. Coming out of college I wouldn’t be in debt and would be able to focus on getting a house and/or paying off a car. As a result I would have substantially less debt then if I had student loans. Because I’d be able to look at buying a house the probability of getting married out of college (something I want to do) would be greatly increased. The relationship with my future wife would be smoother in the financial sense, making for an easier to start to the married life. Because I have less debt I wouldn’t have to work a job just for the sake of money, and I’d be able to focus on a job that lines up more with my dream of being a musician. Winning $50,000 towards my education would be a huge step towards following my dreams later in life.
June 15th, 2010 | #
With the $50.000 as a scholarship. I would use it to pay for to study master in the exterior.It would be a huge blessing, this is the oportunity that always waits. And I need to found a veterinary hospital for poor people and my father has sixty years old, he doesn’t need more work.
June 14th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my 10,000 dollars to my past student loans and use the rest to continue to go to school to be a dentist. I have always wanted to be a Dentist, but right now that dream is on hold until I can afford school again.
June 14th, 2010 | #
Easily said..I could pay for graduate without having to take out loans. Plus possibly work less so I have more time for my family and school. Now that would be heaven!
June 14th, 2010 | #
I wouldn’t have to spend any time stressing over how im going to pay for college, or how many sholarships i can fill out in a month I would have so much more time to really focus on my goals and my studies. This scholarship would be a life saver.
June 14th, 2010 | #
I am a senior returning to college for a new career that cannot be outsourced! My son & family are losing their home due to wife who is terminally ill (medical bills) and he has to decide between his wife/kids and a job. I would pay down his mortgage and save his home so my grandchildren are safe. When I graduate, I will get a job and help him build an addition to the house and take care of the kids. The money would allow me to relax and focus on my studies instead of the threat of my family being homeless!
June 14th, 2010 | #
I would pay for my college expenses, as I have no financial help from parents and am struggling to try to attend college due to the cost!
June 14th, 2010 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to afford to live on my university’s campus, the costs of which would otherwise be crippling. With the time I save by living on-campus, versus commuting, I would have nearly sixteen extra hours a week, to spend on coursework and studying, as well as academic and athletic opportunities that aren’t viable given my current schedule. Living off-campus has also prevented me from making use of the remarkable facilities the campus has to offer, which I am paying for use of in my tuition costs. Not to mention all the good I could accomplish as a student representative(!).
June 14th, 2010 | #
A $50,000 scholarship would allow me to go into my senior year with confidence. I would be able to focus my efforts on school and my design projects rather than trying to balance my education with a job. In addition, I would be able to pay off the student loans I have already incurred.
June 14th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will definitely be able to stay in school past community college. Due to the combined income my parents make I am not able to get enough financial aid to pay and they are not planning on helping. It would be a relief to know I actually have the money to make it through college.
June 14th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship it would mean the world!I would first pay off majority of my loans from college the past year and then I would give back to the community. By giving back to the community I mean work towards giving more underprivileged children the opportunity for higher success. I would make sure their everyday needs were met along with textbooks and school supplies. I am currently pursuing my elementary teaching degree and it has been my dream to work in low poverty areas where I am able to pour out everything I have to offer into the lives of these children. This scholarship would help me make my dreams come true!
June 13th, 2010 | #
If I receive a $50,000 scholarship, I will use the money to follow my dreams and to reach goals that I have set for myself. I will never give up and I will follow through and use the money in a positive way!
June 13th, 2010 | #

My name is Mary and I will be a freshman in college. I’m excited for my college experience because I am certain that it will mold me into a successful young adult, but college has made me apprehensive about money. With a $50,000 scholarship, I can eliminate the nerves pertaining to my financial situation and focus on my studies along with sports. I will achieve good grades and practice hard at field hockey. My only concern is getting to college and being able to pay for it. Both parents have been on unemployment for a while and are stressed about sending me to college, though they are of course quite proud. With this scholarship, I know their stress would dissappear and appreciation would take its place. I have many goals and ambition which includes being the best student I can be at college, working hard as an athlete, taking care of my family when I am out of college and making a difference. With the $50,000 scholarship, nothing can stop me from accomplishing my goals.
June 13th, 2010 | #
If I were to be granted a $50,000 scholarship I would pay for my tuition and books for the amount of school I have remaining. Whatever remaining money I would use to start paying off my current school loans.
June 13th, 2010 | #
If i were to win a $50,000 i would spend it on my college and the books i have to buy. It would be a great blessing to recieve this kind of money, it would help me so much and my parents would be so proud. Both of my parents are currently unemployed at the moment and paying for my college is one of the hardest things to do because it’s so expensive, so i would spend that money on my whole college career.
June 13th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to pay off the loans I lent, relieve the economic burden of my family, realize my dream of being educated in the United States,and to pave the road for my successful career.
June 13th, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000 scholarship, I will be able to go into medical school. This past year I have had two major surgeries. Back surgery for scheurmanns kyphosis and had two rods and twenty eight screws placed and then Jaw surgery for an underbite, Even though I missed two months of school, I still remained at a 4.0 GPA. They were mandatory procedures and were both very costly. If I was to win this scholarship I can pursue my dream and can do more schooling!
June 12th, 2010 | #
If I had the opportunity to win a 50,000 dollar scholarship I would take full advantage of this most gracious blessing. I would eliminate the debt I have accumulated while in college and continue to pay for the rest of my education. I would also be sure to give back some of what was given to me through a personal endowment fund to my institution of higher learning.
June 12th, 2010 | #
if i won this $50,000 scholarship, i would give back money to my parents for helping me throughout my college career and supporting me. they also have struggled to pay for my college tuition as well as room & board. they are not only paying for just one college student, but for my brother and sister as well and money is tight. i would also give back to my community and charity. and of course, i would pay off my student loans and continue schooling.
June 12th, 2010 | #
I am currently studying at a community college, and will be transferring to a four-year college next year. This scholarship would allow me pay for American University and get a BA degree!
June 12th, 2010 | #
Like anyone here, $50K is a grand sum of money that’d simply help with loans, being successful, and making the right steps to becoming independent and finding the right jobs. I want to continue my education so that I can be what I aspire to be.
June 12th, 2010 | #
I would pay for my nursing school expenses. It would take a huge burden off my shoulders. Having 3 kids, full time job, and going to nursing school full time is very overwhelming. It would as help in my living expenses, and I would go part time at my job, and focus on my schooling. How I dream and wish for 50,000. It would be very appreciated.
June 12th, 2010 | #
it would be a blessing and i will go for thanksgiving in my church. i will remain ever grateful to God and to scholarship points because i am an orphan seeking for financial aid to further my education to university level. age is no longer by my side and i am worried about it.
June 12th, 2010 | #
I if i were to win 50,000 bucks i would pay for my first year of college. It would be a big help since my parents started working again, and that’s mostly being used for bills and food. I wouldn’t have to stress so much either. I would be so happy to be able to study in animation, also be the first in my family to go to college.
June 11th, 2010 | #
Carnegie Mellon University is $55,000 a year and ill be there for 5 years so this money would go towards my architecture degree with out having to suffer with crushing loans for the rest of my life just because I worked hard enough to get into a good school
June 11th, 2010 | #
Im a 21 year old who wants something more out of life then working in fast food for the rest of my life. With my parents out of work, I’m paying the bills and taking care of everything and I want to make them proud. If I won $50,000, I would go to college, get that degree and make something out of myself and be successful. Thats my main goal and im going to achieve it.
June 11th, 2010 | #
I think that this is a great way to share our opinions. Everyone has a different one.
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will spend all for my education to the highest level as I can. I am currently a freshman in college and I want to pursue a PhD in molecular biology, and a master in mathematics. I will try to keep my GPA as perfect as I did in high school. Thank you so much!
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I were to receive $50,000, I would be able to pay for college without a sweat. I would be able to put more energy into school work than into worrying about money. It would be absolutely amazing.
June 11th, 2010 | #
I would love to win a $50,000 scholarship! I would finish my degree and then possibly go to grad school with all the money I saved!
June 11th, 2010 | #
my parents refuse to help me out with school and i dnt have a job. i toke a leave of absent to try find a job any try manage my finacial account.i desperately want to finish school and 50,ooo would definitely come in handy i would use it to continue my degree.
June 11th, 2010 | #
With that much money I would pay off my student loans and the rest of my tuition plus pay for the next few years worth of tuition and loan debt.
June 11th, 2010 | #
I would not have to take out such huge loans….
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000 scholarship I would not be overwhelmed with the constant fear of how am I going to pay off my student loan while still attending college. With the $50,000, I could stay way from being in debt and be able to exprience everything my college university has to offer without the worry if I am able to afford it. I want to continue my education more than anything.
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I’m going to pay off my student loans and finish my degree. I’m the first person in my family to go to college and I want to start a tradition for my children to follow.
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I won money from these places I would defiently pay for my college expenses.
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000, I would ensure my education is paid first. If there was money left over, I would pay back my student loans and the loans my parents have taken out to help pay for my education.
June 11th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would help me pay my tuition in the Graduate school. In my country I can’t earn such amount of money.
June 11th, 2010 | #
$50,000 is tuition for one year at Columbia University, the only place I got accepted for studying journalism. This is what I would spend it on.
June 11th, 2010 | #
If I were to win the scholarship I would be able to continue with my education. I only have three semesters left until I complete my bachelors degree at High Point University, but I worry every semester about being able to continue. I worry that my family won’t be able to get another loan to pay for each semester. I also worry about my parents going into debt for my education, when they still have another child to send to college within the next two years. If things keep going the way they are, and my tuition keeps rising, my brother will most likely not get to go to college once he graduates from high school. If I were to win the scholarship, I would be able to worry a little bit less about my all of this and know that my younger brother would have a chance to go to college as well. I would be able to continue on and earn my master’s degree as well.
June 10th, 2010 | #
I would pay for my tuition and books. Payoff medical bills amd help my mother. I would also like decent transportion to get to work.
June 10th, 2010 | #
I’d pay for my entire education at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific with a degree that would help me start two international organizations. The first which is already two years in the making that would bring American College students to Japan to run A English language camp for students that can’t afford other expensive language and exchange programs. The second is a relief organization that would target a dying tribal group in the Philippines called the “Og-ta” the are a people living in the jungles of the Philippines with no access to Medical care, education and other things we take for granted in America and much of the rest of the world.
June 10th, 2010 | #
if i won 50,000 i would pay off my schooling and pay for a lawyer to get custody of my cousins because after my aunt died thier dad took them to florida and i just want them back with our family and i would do anything to see or talk to them again ):
June 10th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 as a scholarship I would go to UC Santa Barbara. I would become an English teacher in a public high school teaching World Literature. I want to inspire students to want to travel and be better than who they are.
June 10th, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 scholarship I would continue my education now that I’m out of high school and I wouldn’t have to worry about the my parent having to pay for me to go to college.
June 10th, 2010 | #
If I would win $50,000 I would be the happiest person on Earth. With that money I would not only get my dream education but I also could make the difference in my sociaty. I’m foreign to this country and it’s really hard for me to find any scholarships. I applied for hundreds of them but I never heard back from them :/ If I could get this $50,000 it would make my live easier and also my family. Whenever I came here with no knowledge of English I didn’t find that fact as the stopping point of achieving I just gave more of me to learn the new language and thanks to my determination and sacrifice from my parents side I graduated 11 from 922 students. I know that if I would this money I would not waste it but use it in the right way.
June 10th, 2010 | #
It goes without saying that obtaining any degree is really expensive. 50,000 would go a long way in helping me pay for the rest college career.

If I wont the scholarship I would invest ALL the money into my current film project.
Set in San Francisco, some people didn’t travel west for gold or riches, some came out here for the game of Baseball. When the Giants moved from New York to San Francisco so did Ron’s family. Following the dream and the constant that is baseball Ron steps up to the plate with his family’s hopes banking on him to go to the Major Leagues. But Ron doesn’t want to play baseball, when he quits, his grandpa dies of prostate cancer. A healing tale of family drama and resurrecting through change in not only life, but the game of baseball.

I would invest it into my current film project which depicts the impoverished side of the midwest in a desperate tale of survival in an contemporary age. The journey joins Tom, an ethical and smart kid, who also has to sell drugs to support his entire family. When things spiral out of control and the FBI puts a magnifying glass on Toms brother as a suspect in murder, tom not only has to clear his brother, but steer clear of the law himself.

If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to pay for the rest of my education, so I would not have to accumilate any loans. I would also use it in furthering my education with a master’s degree in edcuation.

I have a 4 year old that was born with Congenital Heart Disease and just had his 3rd open heart surgery. I would most definitely buy a very dependable car for my sons long trip appointments then pay the balance towards my large college loan awaiting me at the end of my degree.
June 10th, 2010 | #
If I own that scholarship money I would of course, put it towards my college tuition and also for housing. I would put it towards all my four years of college so that way everything is paid for and I won’t have a worry in the world! Without the money to pay for college, I won’t get the true experience of life, I won’t be able to say “I LOVE COLLEGE!”

If I win a scholarship, I will be able to go the school that I was just accepted into.
June 9th, 2010 | #
If I am awarded a scholarship of $50,000 I would be able to pay for my last year of college plus pay off all other student loans. I wish to attend graduate school so this would help a great deal. This would take me on my way of pursuing my dream career in International Business.
June 9th, 2010 | #
I have been working hard my whole life. I went to school, ran out of money (I paid for most of it myself) and had to work full time. Now that I’ve gone back to school, I could use any assistance I can get. I want so badly to finish my degree, obtaining a bachelors and hopefully a masters. I want to make my parents proud of me. I want to be able to support my wife and the family we’re going to start. Finally I want to realize that sense of accomplishment that has been evading me for some time now. This is the way to do it.
June 9th, 2010 | #
I am an 18 yr old high school graduate form 2010. If I were to get the chance to receive this scholarship it would mean a lot to me not only because i need but also for the satisfaction of knowing your getting an opportunity to further my education.

If I win 50,000 scholarship I would finish my Masters of Divinity, get my doctorate and pay off some school loans from my undergraduate school.
June 9th, 2010 | #
The money would go to school. I love school and I want to continue my career in Radiology.
June 9th, 2010 | #
If I win the scholarship I woud definitely use it to pay for my freshman year of college. My parents are divorced and my mom is refusing to pay my collelge tuition and therefore placing the burden on my dad and stepmom. I feel so horrible because he is struggling to find the money on time and I hate being the source of his stress.
June 9th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my many student loans
June 9th, 2010 | #
I would be a lot less stressed if I won 50,000 to help pay for my college expenses
June 9th, 2010 | #

I am currently trying to come up with the money to complete my final year at Wake Forest University. I just returned from studying abroad, an opportunity I would not have had without financial help from WFU but they are unable to give me any more money for my senior year. I could really use this scholarship to finish my undergraduate career and continue my education in law school.
June 9th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 I would pay for my educational expenses and perhaps buy a car to get back and forth to school.
June 9th, 2010 | #
If I were to win this scholarship I could afford to get my degree in elementary education and not have all of the debt that is sure to follow with out this. It would be so nice to know that I am free from struggle.
June 9th, 2010 | #
I would repay my undergraduate student loans, and get a master’s in public administration with a focus on non profit organizations. If I had any cash left over, I would send my parents on a vacation to say ‘thank you’ for helping me through college.
June 8th, 2010 | #
Well if I do win, which I am a pretty optimistic person, all of it will be used for any college costs. The way my University handles scholarships and or loans, is that they will split it across the two terms, Fall and or Spring, and then whatever money is left over will be returned in a refund to the the student.
June 8th, 2010 | #

Also I could make more money so I cna help with thier college tuition.

“Knowledge is power” this phrase has been repeated to me ever since I was a child. The more you know the farther you are going to get in life. Knowing this, as soon as I graduated back in 2008 I enrolled in college. At first I was not sure what I wanted to do, whether I went into nursing, communications, or business, it was all a big scary blur to me, a big scary blur that I was excited to experience. Soon I moved out of my mother’s house that supported me in my decision to go to school, but could not afford to pay for much. I quickly learned that no one was going to help me, know what is best for me, or make the best decisions for me, besides myself. I had to grow up and quickly, being only 19 now this was an extremely scary situation, my first step was to decide what career I was going to achieve in school. After much deliberation, I decided that I was going to strive for bachelors in communications with an associate in business. There are so many opportunities available in these areas the possibilities seem endless. So what would I do with $50,000? Besides what most people would do, by paying off my school loans I would continue to go to college and get a degree in communications to better my life. With this money I would be able to transfer to a different college, one that specializes in communications or business and not have to worry about putting myself in debt. On top of that I would no longer need to depend on my mother or father when I need help. They have helped me to the best of their abilities and with this money I could be able to feel like an independent adult, instead of a mooching child. I would be able to help my family out one day, instead of them helping me out. That would be an incredible feeling, one I hope I can experience one day. With school expenses being what they are, I would also be able to buy my school books on time. This has been a huge problem, I do not have the money to spend $200 plus on a book that I am only going to use for one semester. For the past two semesters I have been unable to buy a lot of my books. I sacrifice the books I do not think I am going to need as much for the books I know are going to be required. This is a problem because I am afraid I am going to be unable one day to purchase a book that is required. In addition to these four reasons, I would also be able to buy my own reliable car. For the past two years I have been attending college, 50% of my college experience I have been worrying about how I am going to make it to school, some of this time I actually was unable to make it to school. By buying my own reliable car, I would no longer have the amount of stress or worry in my life and I could also consider the opportunity of expanding my schooling to another school possibly in Pennsylvania or farther away in Ohio at a better school for my major. These are just five of the many possibilities that I could accomplish with this scholarship. It would open up worlds to me that I thought were impossible. Thank you.
June 8th, 2010 | #
if i were to win this big money;my education at Jones international University will be assured.meaning in the the next year i will get my masters degree in education and become the principal of a high school in the USAZ and teach secondary mathematics.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to pay for my own school and books. My mother just graduated from college with her masters in socialogical research. This isn’t a highly paid area. My father on the other hand is still looking for a job. We just moved out of state and all of my funds for school have been depleated because we moved out of state. If I had this scholarship, I would be able to fund my own school and not worry semester to semester about working my way through college. This would change the way that I go through college. I wouldn’t be super stressed about college and paying it off, that I would be able to spend more time on my studies and such. Thank you for this opportunity and God bless your search.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will be able to pay for my own books and tuition. Being the only girl and the oldest out of five children was really difficult for my single mother to obtain money to support the family. Now that I am in college so far from home it is hard for my mother to maintain the family stable. She works morning shift in order to spend quality time with my four younger brothers during the evening since now I am not longer there to be their “second mother.” If I were to be selected to win a scholarship I will indeed take advantage of it. I know that my mother has gone through so much and she could not afford everything I need for school. My motivation is my little brother who was detected with asthma since he was three months. I have gone through so much and I know that if I am given the opportunity with this scholarship I will make the best out of it. Thanks.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win the scholarship it would be a huge blessing because it would allow me to finish school. My financial aid is beginning to run out and this would help me finish the lasttwo years of school without the stress!
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship it would be a blessing! Because my financial aid is running out at school and I reaaly need the money to finish school and pay off some of my student loans to help when i finish college.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win any scholarships, I would so use it in my first year of my new college. It’s hard for me to do a loan especially when my mom or dad won’t co-sign for me. It’s tough and now I’m panicing about how to pay for my college. I just got summited in to it too. I really want to get my dream degree but with the economy on guard about giving out money, it feels like an imposible dream for me.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I won I would pay all of my loans and schooling.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I would pay off the interest on m student loans and use the rest for fall’s tuition. I wouldn’t have to work as much also.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, then I am going to pay all my school debt and also buy myself new study text for my accounting. ALSO I am going to help my parent who are very poor to pay the school fees of my younger ones
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000 I would be able to go to the school I have always wanted to go to and learn to be a chef. My mom wanted me to go to school for something I loved she even went as far as getting a second job to pay tuition but it was still too much so I was not able to go I know that if I got a scholarship like this one I would be able to go and live out my dream and in the future have my own restaurant.
June 8th, 2010 | #
While many say you should use the money to pay off current student loans the idea of not using the money for more advancement to me would be a waste. I would use the money to get my advanced degree and with that become a professor of art.
June 8th, 2010 | #
If i win 50k i will surely used it for my education, i want to finish my college and i want to be seafarer someday…
June 8th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship I would be able to attend college and major in communications with an emphasis on broadcast production without worrying. With the worry off my shoulder it would be easier to focus on my schoolwork and remind myself why I want to a career in broadcast production. Growing up as a child without television, I found other ways to entertain myself and as a result of that I ended up with quite an imagination. Then, when I was an adolescent I was introduced into the world of television and I became fascinated. I could not comprehend how many different people it took in order for me to watch old reruns of Full House. Thus, I came to the conclusion that I wanted to find out. Through that process I found that I want to be a part of a television show, so I would be a factor in bringing together family and friends while they discuss character’s or episode’s plots. Now that I have grown and moved past my love of Full House all of my favorite television programs are on the History Channel. Every program I watch holds my attention and leaves me wanting to see more after the hour is up. My goal is to work for the History Channel and be a member of a company that puts forth great entertainment that not only entertains individuals, but makes them curious about the world around them. As of today I do not know the exact position I would like to have, but I have been trying to explore all the possibilities. I have taken various communication classes that explain all the positions involved with creating a television program. This past year I was involved with Cable 8 productions at my school where I was a host for the show Wazzu Cribs along with being a crew member where I worked with cameras, sound, and lighting. In my next couple of years I plan to know the exact position I would like to pursue and until that point I know I will continue to engage myself in activities where I can further learn about the different roles of broadcast production. I have truly been inspired by the History Channel and television in general and will keep pushing forward in my goal to make myself a qualified employee of the History Channel or any other television program.

If I won the scholarship I would use it to pay off my student loans. Being a single parent is hard, and without an education makes it even harder, expecially in the economy now. I would use whatever was left for bills, to help provide for son and I. It is amazing that there are programs and opprotunities out there for people who cannot afford to further their education. It depends on how much you actually get out there and research and apply.
June 7th, 2010 | #
If I had a scholarship of $50,000. I would definately use that money to finish my studies, without worrying about taking out loans and paying them back. But most importantly I would use some of the money to help out my family with their financial needs, so they can have less of a stressful life.
June 7th, 2010 | #
if i won i would actually go to the college i want to.

If I were to win this scholarship it would go towards mine and my sister’s college education. We have two years left of college in the hopes of becoming missionaries, but do not have the funds to get us all the way through. I have a strong desire to finish school within the next two years so that I can begin my mission work without debt and be able to begin changing lives!
June 7th, 2010 | #
If i would win $50,000 i would save some and use the rest for college expenses so my mother wouldn’t have to worry about paying my school bill. With the money i would save would be things i would want and need for school. For college i would pay my semester off and pay for books and notebooks, etc.
June 7th, 2010 | #

I would love to receive 50,000 . That will help my family and me also . I already have loans to pay back , so it will definitely help a lot . I know a lot of students are in the same situation i am in , but it helps to know that someone out there is willing to help in our situations .
June 7th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000 I would finish school and any extra money I would use it to help out me and my mom’s financial needs that we are in.
June 7th, 2010 | #
I would finish paying for my education at my current university and pay off my student loans.
June 7th, 2010 | #
IF I WIN A $50,000 SCHOLARSHIP, I WOULD USE IT TO PAY FOR MY LIVING EXPENSES WHILE ATTENDING LAW SCHOOL SO THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE TO BURDEN MY PARENTS. ALSO, I WOULD USE IT TO PAY OFF SOME OF MY AND MY HUSBAND’S BILLS!
June 6th, 2010 | #
According to this situation, I would do several things if I were to win a $50,000 scholarship. Firstly, I would definitely use it to pay a large amount of my college tuition. Therefore, I would be able to not worry about getting into tremendous debt at the conclusion of college. In addition, I would use what was left of the money to purchase things that I need for school such as books. Lastly, at the conclusion of college, I would deposit the majority of the money in my bank after everything for college is paid off.
June 6th, 2010 | #
If I were to receive a 50,000 dollar scholarship, I would not be terrified of transferring to the University of California, Davis this fall due to its cost. This opportunity would make me able to cut some slack off my parents. I would also not have to worry about those awful student loans. Receiving this scholarship would motivate me to reach for my masters (due to affordability) and concentrate solely in school and not have to work while in school to keep myself focused in my studies.

Just getting off the pohone with my step dad he informed that he had no intention of helpng me financially toward my future education. He did feel it was necessary to give me a long twenty minute speech about how I should not depend on my grandparents for support. My question to him that was burning to be said “If not you, then who, if not them why even try” My grandparents stand by my side knowing that in this day and age a college education will take me far. They don’t make much but the money they do make they put toward my education. I only wish that I was able to support myself, but that is why I am in college. To get a better job so I can one day repay their unbound kindness. If I got the 50,000 scholarship it would be toward my education so that my grandparents no longer have to worry about a bigger expense.
June 5th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will use it to pay for college and save a lot of it until I get an apartment in NYC or the boroughs. I am a dancer and an actress, and I aspire to be a self sufficient performing artist-a very daunting task- with an education. I have two brothers, one of which is already in college and finding it hard to get a job, and my parents are divorced, and I want to be on my own as soon as I can, so they don’t have to support me.
June 5th, 2010 | #
If i win a $50,000 scholarship or $50,000 cash, i would continue my education and go for my MD/PhD at the college of my choice. I would also pay off my loan balance from when i graduate from undergrad this dec 2010. Also with whatever money i have left over i would give to my parents. For all the years they have been there for me and supported me, i would like to be there for them. Move them in a new house and have them living better, with them knowing there son will always be there for them.
June 5th, 2010 | #
Well…with the risk of sounding like the majority of everyone else…I would pay all my loans first then put the rest in the bank…and when I had more loans to pay I would…Honestly though I would also go to Payless to get a pair of victory pumps.
June 5th, 2010 | #
50 grand would almost entirely go for education, but 20% or so would be what I’d definitely invest in stocks or some other financial instruments. So it would be two different investments, actually
June 5th, 2010 | #
Wow, if I won a $50,000 scholarship I honestly wouldnt know where to begin. For one, I will take care of my school exspense. Then I’d invest in a car because I definetly need a way to get around. It would open great opportunities for me to get on my feet while I’m still in college trying to get my degree. It would be a great motivation
June 5th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would finish my education and go for a Doctorate. I would love to teach. I think not only my experience but personal background would be an asset to any students that I taught or encountered. I would also pay off a few loans that I have already incurred trying to pursue my education.
June 4th, 2010 | #
if I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay for 2 full years of college. This would help me from financial stress tremendously, I love school and every time we have a break I always get scared that I won’t be able to return to school due to money. I want to succeed and pursue a career and any scholarship would be a step towards me finishing school like I should.
June 4th, 2010 | #
I was so happy when I graduated, but now I am so scare that I don’t have money to go college. So If I have a $50000 scholarship, I will go to in college with my major that I will not make my parents to have a hard time with thier job. One more thing I wish I can use $10000 of scholarship to go mission. I know that It’s hard to design but I hope it would be true.
June 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000, I can’t be a burden on my brother anymore.
June 4th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my loans and take my husband and three girls on a needed vacation. Most likely to my mom’s house, in Hawaii.
June 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship i can finally continue my education and pursue the career i’ve been dreaming of. I also will be able to be a fine role model for my daughter and be able to keep her motivated in her education.
June 4th, 2010 | #
If I win, I would use what I can of it to pay for the rest of my school career, then use the rest to pay off loans I already have to help my mother. She helps me as much as she can with loans, but I can tell its getting harder to find loans we are eligible for. I definitely want to help out my parents the most because they’ve done a lot for me already. Also, maybe I wouldn’t have to worry about my rent, my books, and commuting as much. It would be a great help not just for me, but my parents. Thank you!
June 4th, 2010 | #
$50,000 in scholarship money would be life-changing. I’d no longer struggle month-to-month to put food on the table, and I could comfortably afford my rent. My family has struggled financially since my father died of cancer, and it is now my goal to enter health care and help other families avoid our fate.
June 4th, 2010 | #
Receiving any kind or amount of grant or scholarship for college means I wouldn’t have to borrow that money. I am paying for school myself and am facing a huge debt load when I graduate. How long it will take to repay all those loans depresses me. So winning a scholarship offers financial relief from overwhelming debt and worry.
June 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I would of course pay my way through college. It would be truly beneficial for myself and my parents. I think being able to pay for college with a scholarship would encourage my younger and even older family members that just because I did decide to further my education, I did not have to be in debt. Some people don’t go to school because they are scared of the student debts, but spending valuable time searching for scholarships, no matter large are small, will help. The small ones add up, and the large amounts really help to encourage furter education.
June 4th, 2010 | #
Pay for my last year and a half of college and give the rest to my parents who have helped me out tremendously.
June 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I would use it to further my education. I am one semester away from graduating and I would love to go to graduate school without going further in debt.
June 4th, 2010 | #
I would invest into my education, which in the long-run would give its fruits and will benefit not only me but also people, community and my country as well. I hope one day I will receive a scholarship.

After helping my parents pay their loans for my last year of my college undergraduate degree in Microbiology, they will need considerable financial help to provide for the high cost of medical school for me to become a PA. I’m considering helping those in rural areas that don’t have access to quick medical help and can’t afford to pay much for it either. Without this help, it may be too difficult to sustain financial payments for escalating loans, which will put my career plans on a very slow, stagnated path to completion.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
If I was to win $50,000 I would be able to provide for myself through my duration of school. Even if I were to ask my parents for financial help they would not be able to provide it, so why bother. I managed my first year of college, but it would be so much easier if I had help.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
I am currently enrolled as a student at a private, Christian university in Alabama. I desperately need financial aid in order to continue my education there in hopes of finding a better job. If i win a scholarship, i would be able to do so, as well as take a huge burden off my family, who has struggled with finding the necessary means to support my college funds. The only thing I am living for right now is finding scholarship money. I need it!!
June 3rd, 2010 | #
I’ve already attempted furthering my education twice. Third time’s the charm, so they say. Now that the kids are grown and I recently was laid off my job, why not make my dream of a college degree come true. The only problem is financing. With this scholarship, I can follow-through on my dream and not have to worry about staying in a dead end job with no chance for retirement.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
I would pay off my current student loans, then finance my continuing of college.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
If I was awarded a $50,000 scholarship I would use it to pay for my school expenses and pay off my loans from the first two years of college. Since I am about to graduate from college I would use the excess money from the scholarship to help pay for graduate school.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship, I would finish college and get my degree in Psychology. I want to finish school for my kids. I will be the first one in my family to graduate from college and I want them to follow in my foot steps. I have been having trouble paying for school so I could only attend when I have the money. Winning this scholarship would mean the world to me.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
If i were to win 50K i would finish my college career majoring in Business marketing and also a minor in culinary arts. it would be a dream come true to win this money because it would take the burdon of having to pay for it all by my self,
June 3rd, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I would use it towards my current student loans. I would like to get may schooling paid down so when I graduate I can return back to school to further my education further. Winning scholarships would also allow me to help my children more with their education as I have one graduating high school in a couple years.
June 3rd, 2010 | #
study for graduate and doctorate degrees in secondary curriculum
June 3rd, 2010 | #
Since I got married (not long ago)paying for school has become difficult because now I have more responsabilities. If I won 50,000 I will use it for my tuition, books, and other college expenses only. Keep studying is my priority, and all do anything to get my diploma.

If I won the $50,000 scholarship I would never ever again for get those in need, Because I see people standing with signs and asking for money and I want to donate to everyone but I can’t. So I donate to Cancer and MS, a $1 here or a $5 there. Maybe someday I will be able to give more, so That is what drives me through school to be able to provide and support my family with my income and to be able to lend a hand to those in need when I have that chance in the future. $50,000 Would provide for me and my baby until I finish my degree.
June 3rd, 2010 | #

June 3rd, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 in cash i would split it with my baby. We both in school and i would want to help her out too. We not the richest so all these loans are gonna be there after we graduate.So 25,000 each would knock out a big part of our tuition we would have to pay back. Helping us in the long run by letting us get on our feet and not worry bout paying back so much money back! So as tempting as it would be to spend it someone where else our education and future is more important to me!

At the University of Kansas I will pursue a doctorate in Speech-Language Pathology. I am studying the relationship between early language learning differences in preschoolers and later emergent literacy. This scholarship will ensure my ability to finish this degree, learn to translate experimental research into practical application to help children become better readers, be a college professor and eliminate my concern of providing an adequate income for my family while I meet my goals. This money will not only change my life and lives of my children, it will improve the lives of countless children who will benefit from my research.

If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would use the money to pay for my next two years of school at LeTourneau University. The money would go a long way to help my family’s as well as my own financial situation. LeTourneau is an expensive school and they do not hand out large scholarships to students. The money would help my attaining a bachelors in psychology become much more of a possibility.

I would be the first in my hispanic family to go to college and oh it would feel great. 50,000 dollars doesn’t even seem like a tangable amount of money to me.

June 2nd, 2010 | #

I just started college in January 2010. I am a 35-year-old mother of two and wife, and currently hold the title of Administrative Assistant full-time. Things are very rough right now financially, but that is my motivation for going back to school. I am pursuing a Bachelor’s in Business Administration and plan on continuing into a Master’s immediately after. Since I chose to attend a private university, the cost is very high. $50,000 would take a huge burden off of my family’s shoulders.

With my student loans all paid off I will be more likely to get loans for my son when he enters college in 2012. This money would take such a heavy weight off our family’s shoulders.

With a $50,000 scholarship, I would be ale to pay off 90% of my student loan debt. That would be a miracle because I’m dreading not being able to stay afloat once repayment is in effect. Wining would take a great deal of strain off my mind which would make me all the better at being a great student.
May 31st, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I could finish up my schooling by next summer where I will graduate with my B.A. in journalism. My parents have supported me thus far with my schooling but money is about to run out. Winning this not only helps me out, but no longer will i stress about money nor will my parents have to worry about what I’m going to do. Having extra money left over also helps me out for I’m still living at home and working part time.

My mom has always supported my playing drums and I would like to be able to pay for my education without it being difficult for her.

I would feel very blessed and appreciate any scholarship of any amount. It would help me out emensly. I have found that everything happens for a reason so I know that if the winnings were not to go to me there was someone out there that needed it more. I think it is an amazing gift that there are companies out there to offer such a precious gift to someone in such straights. It is very pleasing to see.

A scholarship could be the differences between getting that needed further schooling that you need and just dreaming about it. I think it’s a necessary incentive for educational financing.

In farming, sometimes money is hard to come by for things other than those needed for the farm. I would greatly appreciate any amount awarded to me and would definetly use it in a way to make the giver proud!
May 28th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a sholarship, I would lose my voice screaming and jump up and down until I lost my breath! My brother and sister (twins) just graduated high school and are going to college, and I’ve still got a couple years to go, and a scholarship would help out so much. I am pursuing a B.A degree in theatre performance, having fun learning everything and anything about theatre and working on perfecting my talents, and I plan to take some acting classes in London next spring to broaden my learning pool. But my bank account and I would be eternally greatful for any financial help towards my college education.

If I won a 50,000 dollar schorlarship I would be so overlly happy and excited to just go back to school. It would pay off my tuition for two years, I could get and pay off all my books and fees and also help me pay for my housing. Also it would make all my childhood dreams come true, Ive always wanted to help animals and so I decided to become a veterinarian technician and help animals. My parents are in too much debt to help me pay so I need to pay it off myself but im looking around for scholarships.I graduated last year and was waiting and working to get enough money to go to college, if I choose to keep working it would take me five years to get the tuition. Im barley paying off the shots I need to get in order to even go to the Bel-Rea Vet Tech Institute. I can’t wait to further my education, and be able to work in the job I’ve always wanted.

My parents never went to college. I have alot of debt to catch up on also. However my college education always comes first. I want my mother to be proud of me to accomplish something I have always wanted. I would give some to her and my friend and her family for opening their arms out to me when I needed them for support.

I would of course finish my Master’s degree and put the rest on my home which I am about to lose. If I don’t get help soon, I will become another older homeless veteran sleeping in car. And since I have used up VA benefits on BA degree, I have NO money coming in at this time. Now as an older woman, I had to go back to school to up my chances to get a job, which I tried for 2 years to do. I’ll be 60 soon and am way to big (and health problems)to sleep in car. I use to help the homeless and don’t want to be one!

That would be my ultimate dream.

If I get the scolarship, I will thank my God first. It would be a great blessing and honor to receive a scholarship to attend college. I am a 31YR young female who has finally decided to further my education, so that my children don’t get discouraged in their own studies. If I were lucky enough to recieve a $50,000 scholarship I would IMMEDIATELY pay for any tuition costs, laptop for school, books and any other additional supplies that I may need for my classes. Finding money to cover all of the nesecary cost for school is very difficult while both my husband and I are recieving unemployment benefits. I am a stay at home mother of 3, who has been lucky enough to get hired by H&R Block (during tax season only) and have never had any kind of additional worth while employment in my life. I want to further my education so that I may be able to also further my employment history. Being a stay at home mother of 3 with limited finances and with every cent we have right now, it just barely covers our monthly bill expenses, which does not include any “extras” that may or may not be a NEED for the month. Please concider me for this opportunity so that I can further my education and encourage my children never to give up on a dream or goal that they have.
May 26th, 2010 | #

May 26th, 2010 | #

Whatever I had left, would go to helping my mom with her business and do what I could to help get it started. I would also try and start my little sister a college fund and try and help my brother go back to school. Fifty thousand dollars would not only change my life and garrentee that I would be able to continue with my education, but it would also change my intire familys life and i could finally pay them back for everything they’ve done for me.
May 25th, 2010 | #

The obvious answer “have money for college, pay off debts” etc…
I have a amazing talent, smug or conceded my art site says plenty of my talent and how far I can go with the right funds. Money is everything and I’m not even going to one of the most expensive school and being strapped for cash, I am poor, one step from a card board box, and one cliche from a starving artist. I may not need this money as much as other people do, I’m certain there are bases for bias if a artist should get money or a future politician or life saving lawyer. I am a artist with the over flooded imagination for any one wanting a peak in my noggin, I want to show people whats in there, and im sure most on a sunny side would like it.
May 25th, 2010 | #
If I had 50,000. I would pay off things that I owe, I will give to my church and also to the community since I’m involved with the community. My family will have some share of the money as well. After I feel all have had a share of it. I would save the rest for good reasons.
May 25th, 2010 | #
If I win the 50,000 I would pay for my tution up front and be finacially ok and worry free LOL:)
May 24th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000, I would first take care of my financial and educational needs. Being in the final stages of my undergraduate year, I have come to understand that before you can take care of another individual, you must be able to care of yourself. I think that with $50,000 I would be able to not only finish school, and go on to graduate school.
After securing my school expenses, I would take care of my parents and immediate family. Considering my alocation to a new address, I have obtained new parents. I couldn’t have been more blessed. They have provided for me as if I were one of their own. Everyday I am thankful them, and every night pray for them. I believe that as children, we should take care of our parents considering all that they have done for us. I am very grateful to say that I have new parents that constantly are a beacon of inspiration and determination.
The final task I would tackle would be to help out my dear friend Patrick. He is such a wonderful person and truly a good friend. There are so many individuals that walk this earth, not having a friend or someone they can confde in. I am forever grateful for him and his family. With $50,000, I would help him in his educational endeavors and show him how grateful I am for a firend like him.
May 24th, 2010 | #

If I won a $50,000 scholarship or just $50,000 in cash, I wouldn’t worry about paying for college, atleast for a few more years. I would pay a majority of my tution, and I would save some of it for personal uses.
May 24th, 2010 | #
I am going to be a Senior in College, and struggling to get the funds to finish. My mom has Multiple Sclerosis and is disabled. My father recently had a heart attack and will be out of work for a few months. I have been working to help pay the bills, and taken alot from my savings. I have taken out loans for my education without a cosigner, but can not get another loan with out one. This money would allow me to finish school, and pay off my outstanding loans,

This scholarship would allow me to fulfill my childhood dream of becoming a historic preservationist, debt free. Upon earning my degree, I would be able to focus my effort on preserving our nation’s architectural past, creating environmentally-friendly restoration projects, and improve our economy through neighborhood revitalization efforts. Knowing what it is like to be plagued by debt from my bachelor’s degree, this award would be a huge gift!!
May 23rd, 2010 | #
If I were to win a 50,000 scholarship I would use 20,000 to pay for my tuition, books, housing, and car insurance. With the rest I would give some to my sister who is trying to finish her teaching certification for elementary education and Masters in accounting, my boyfriend of two years who has student loans from attending an unaccredited college and is now attending an accredited university, and my cousins who attend the same university as me and need help financially.
May 23rd, 2010 | #
I would be able to attend school, now a days school is so expensive and each year its going up. It would let me attend school without stressing my parents about more bills. Would be great to finally go to college and further my education.

I wish to attend graduate school for pastoral counseling, to serve those affected by trauma. Specifically, those affected by human trafficking or sexual assault. Because it’s a field without much money to offer for compensation, it’s important that I find alternate sources! Please help!

May 22nd, 2010 | #
I WOULD FINISH MY LAST FOUR CLASSES AND START PAYING SOME OF MY COLLEGE MONEY BACK.
May 22nd, 2010 | #
It would truly be a blessing for me and my family if I get a scholarship to pay for college. We have trouble now with finding ways to pay. I’m trying really hard to stay focused in school but it’s hard when I know the things my parents have to go through to pay for my education. It would simply be a dream come true.
May 22nd, 2010 | #
With $50,000 scholarship,I will make sure that,I spend it on my education and nothing else,since I want to get to the highest level in education.

The remaining money,will be saved in a bank.I will only redraw money when there is any payment to be made in school.This can be when a class must contribute for a project,pay for a trip,make a donation as a group or any other thing.

I recently got accepted to Northeastern University, this has been my dream all my life to enroll in the school that will make me happy and provide me with a good education. I currently reside in NYC where i was born and raised, soon i will be moving on and start a new chapter of my life, i have high hopes for myself as i progress with my education. If i were to win a scholarship this would be a blessing, i would use the scholarship to help pay my tuition and it will also be a good help for books and supplies.
May 21st, 2010 | #
If i win that money i will finish college
May 21st, 2010 | #
with 50k would i coud pay for college and open a saveing with many money that is lefted over.
May 21st, 2010 | #
If I had 50,000 dollars,to me that would be a true blessing because gwtting that kind of money doesn’t come easily. I would spend it soley on my schooling because that would be my only priority at that particular time. Seeing that I am about to go off to college, i need as much money as i can get to help pay for my schooling as much as i can seeing that it’s only my mom working in the household and trying to support me and two other children. All and all that money would be a true blessing.
May 21st, 2010 | #
With an amazing $50,000 I could pay for my masters degree using cold hard cash and pay off my debt from my bachelors degree. That would be the best gift of all and I would be eternally grateful. I would be sure to make a nice church and/or charitable donation too!
May 21st, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship, I would of course use it to pay my tuition($24,000 per year). I almost got shunned from my family for choosing to attend such an expensive, private, and Catholic University but they have a great highly accredited College of Business. I might also allocate some of that money to purchase a new laptop-it still works but the screws have disappeared and the plastic screen broke. Maybe next time I will choose a Mac
It is sad for me since I manage a scholarship and grant of more than $236,000 and award them to adults that are pursuing teaching and I can’t pay my tuition. It will be highly appreciated.
May 21st, 2010 | #
I would have no college debt. It would be great.
May 20th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would pay for college, and if any money were to be left over i would buy a new computer with it.

May 20th, 2010 | #
If I win a 50K schlarship, I would not have to repay as much upon graduating from an online school/getting BA in Psychology and freshman, I also have 1 son going to college in fall and with both of us in school the loans that go with the pell grants will be high. So far I have a 3.83 GPA, and my son is graduating high school with honors, but we ive on my social security/disability = under poverty level. We both hope to get high pay and rewarding careers unpon graduation from our colleges. Thank you for your time and consideration.
May 20th, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 scholarship would help me with my financial needs. This would help me with my college funds and that would be a blessing, because I need all the money that I can possibly get.
May 20th, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 scholarship would truly be an answered prayer. I would use the award to follow my dream of becoming a cardiac surgeon. My choice of college has been a dream of mine since I was a small boy, however, it is out of state. My mother lost her job in November and my dad lost his job about two weeks ago. It will be almost impossible for my parents to pay for my education, much less for me to go to the college of my dreams. This scholarship would be GREATLY appreciated in more ways than any words could express. Thanks for any consideration.
May 20th, 2010 | #
If i win a scholarship, i will use it towards my college education and also pay off the loan that i will borrow from the bank.. and also, buy some book with it, i love to read
May 19th, 2010 | #
if i would win this scholarship i would first give my tithe in church than i would help my mother out for all that she has done for me even though i know that i cant repay her for all she has done but what i am grateful for is for her taking in my daughter while i complete high school and further myself in college and i really do thank her for that. i would help the homeless and needy people but i will never forget my family and the people that prayed for me and stood by me screaming for me and letting me know that i can made it and nothing can and will defeat me.
May 19th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship, I would start university this year and earn my degree in food services.
May 19th, 2010 | #
With that money…I’d be able to pay my first 8 months of college. and only 8 months
May 19th, 2010 | #
If i won the money, I would definitely put it towards me going to college. Its kind or an expensive school, so it would absolutely be a blessing, cause otherwise I have no idea how i would go.
May 19th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would definitely use it to pay off my college. I would pay everything in full so my parents wouldn’t have to worry about coming up with money to pay for everything. Winning that money would take so much stress off both my parents and me. I wouldn’t worry about them worrying how they are going to pay for my college. If there was any left over money after I was done paying for college I would put it in a savings account and use it wisely so in case of an emergency, I would have money saved up.
May 19th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship for $50,0000, I would use it to pay for the remaining of my Bachelor’s degree, and then apply the remainder towards my Masters in Psychology that would not only benefit myself, but others as well.
May 19th, 2010 | #
IF I WON ANY MONEY AT ALL I WOULD BE EXTREMELY HAPPY I DONT CARE IF ITS 100 DOLLARS I NEED ANY HELP I CAN GET . MY MOTHER AND I LIVE BY OURSELVES AND SHE IS CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED. I JUST WISH I HAD MONEY TO GO TO SCHOOL BECAUSE I REALLY WANT TO GIVE MY MOTHER THE LIFE STYLE SHE DESERVES.
May 19th, 2010 | #
Pursuing continued education as an adult is intimidating. For someone like myself, I am still paying off loans from an Ivy League school I wasn’t able to complete my education at while simultaneously trying to maintain a successful life as an adult. That means managing the everyday adult finances which you typically don’t have to think about as a teenager. With $50,000 I would be able to cover the $11,000-$14,000 (incl. books) per year it would cost to finish my Bachelor’s Degree in Business, pay off existing loans from previous education and consider the option of beginning graduate school. If the prize was a cash prize vs. a scholarship prize, $5,000.00 each would be invested in both of my nieces future educations. My career thus far has been a successful one in the financial industry and with my knowledge I began small accounts for my nieces educations at a young age, to add to these in such a manner would be incredible. If any additional funds remained available, it would be an opportunity to pay off additional debt and invest in my retirement. Let me say, that sounds like a much better option than looking to liquidate my current retirement plans to pay off debt and pursue further schooling. They say that if you want a “said amount of money” that visualizing how you would earn, spend, invest, and donate it will help you achieve your dream. I believe they are right!
May 19th, 2010 | #
If I would win a 50K scholarship, I would pay off all of my loans that are outstanding! It would be great to start out my career debt-free!!!! Whatever is leftover, I would use for furthering my education and go for my doctorate degree!

If I won $50,000 I would use that money to pay towards my college tuition and also my books for school. I am currently a nursing student at Hawaii Pacific University, and I will be entering my junior year, its really difficult for me right now to find a stable job for Im going to school full time, so my parents help pay for tuition, however, we have been struggling just to pay, yeah sure I got a $1,000 scholarship, however, its not enough to pay for the $7,000 tuition fee. If I had the money yes i would use if for college expenses, and the remaining I will save it for future purposes such as help me pay for graduate school. It would be a great benefit if I won that money.
May 19th, 2010 | #
if i won 50,000 life would be great all my prayers would have been answered. i would be able to pay for college without my faily having to put themselves in debt by trying to get me an education. i would get a phd in nursing and continue futher my education. my family is low income but they do anything to get me to go to college. i currently attends virginia state university but im not sure if ill be attending back in aug due to my grandfather is sick with cancer and cant help me pay fo college anymore but me winning this would make him and everybody proud and this will help me dearly…..thanks for the opportunity

May 18th, 2010 | #
If I would win a scholarship this would elviate the stress of paying back the student loans I have received for my education. Although I will be greatful for receiving my college diploma, the scholarship would benefit me in the future especially trying to pay bills and a home mortgage being unemployed.
May 18th, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay for my education without worrying about having to pay it back later if I can’t find a job right away.
May 18th, 2010 | #
if I had a 50,000 scholarship? It would make my world. I will keep studying until I get a Phd in Nursing.After which I’d teach so as to give back to the society.

50,000 dollars would allow me to leave educational expenses behind me while allowing me to have the space to serve the community more effectively. As I write this post, I am on my last month of rent in the bank with no clear way to replenish my account. I have faith that a way will be made to take care of my needs.

If I win this awesome $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to make my dreams come true. I’m really fond of Computer Games and I love to join Computer games industry. But since I am a Asian (Sri Lankan) I never had the privilege to learn in such a stream due to lack of technology and lack of financial aids. Our family income is so low; I thought my dreams will never come true. But still I’m finding ways to pay for such a course. Thanks to Sri Lanka’s free education I Graduated from university of Colombo completing BSc in Information and Communication Technology (Bsc in ICT). Since the free education end up in the level of Bachelor’s I was unable to continue for a Master’s. So i was so frustrated because i want to learn more of what I like and what i will be able to do for world. Therefore If I win this scholarship I would straight away pay for such a course which would probably conduct by SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design), Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) or University of Staffordshire. Rest of the money I would save in a bank so that I could use it for my further education and well-being. Or probably I would give some of them to students who need financial aids. Since working in Games industry is a very rare chance, especially for 3rd world students like me. But I believe that i could do that If I get this great scholarship. I’m dearly looking, hoping, wishing and dreaming forward to hear these four words “You won $50,000 scholarship”.

If I was to win a $50,000 scholarship, my future would look very different. I go to the University of Detroit Mercy and I am currently majoring in Architecture and Community Development. I want to be a part of Detroit rebirth as a major urban center, there are many positive changes and amazing things happening in the city, this scholarship would allow me to become a part of this. The scholarship would also allow me to continue enrolling for the next five years,and also allow me to study abroad in Poland, something very important for aspiring architects. I come from a middle class suburban family, i get no assistance from them because they need it to take care of our family and home, the government claims they make to much, not allowing myself to get more funding. I do not want to put my parents in debt, for MY future, it is not fair. As of right now, i need $10,000 to start my second year at school, with the economy, i don’t think it will be possible to earn that much.
May 17th, 2010 | #
If I win $50,000 scholarship I would help my dad pay off the next two years of my college since he is stuggling to pay it by him self so he won’t have to worry about paying off that many loans.
May 17th, 2010 | #
If i won a $50,000 dollar scholarship, i could get back into college and continue my persuit of my lifes dream. i’d be able to finish paying it all for 4 years, and earn my BA of fine arts, and possibly have enough to continue my hunger for knowledge. The scholarship would cover my entire tuition fee’s and housing, as well as meal plan. This one scholarship could bring my dreams within my grasp once more.
I will continue my persuit of my dream. No matter what. I long to artistically, and intelligently relay my soul in hopes to help and encourage others to do the same. I hope to inspire others to discover themselves, and aspects that define them.
Music, and art are the things that shape tomorrow. to “feel” defines an individual in any situation. Business, economics, government, art, etc…
Albert Einstein once said;
-”Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The Latter cannot understand when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices, but honestly and courageously uses intelligence and fulfills the result of his thought in clear form.”

The last three years of my life have been rough! I work two jobs and have been homeless since I’ve left high school. My hope to keep paying out of pocket and finish school so that I can go on to teach has not changed! This scholarship would mean more than words can describe to a young student like me!
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I where to win this or any scholarship I will be applying them to the rest of my school tuition. These last three years of college has been incredibly challenging due to money issues I pay out of pocket for school and Im homeless working two jobs. It’s hard but there is plenty of faith that my dream will come!

I’m a working mother of three who was recently accepted to a Graduate Program to earn Montessori Certification and a Masters in Early Childhood Education. How great would it be to have $50,000 to fund the dream!
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would pay for my current one year tuition at my university. It would also allow me extra money to study abroad and learn another language, while learning about another culture/society first hand. My dream is to become an international business woman and travel the world. I have big dreams for myself and a scholarship would only help make those goals become real.
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I could win the scholarship, I would put it towards the rest of my school fees and eventually graduate and secure my goal in bettering my education. If I were to win the cash I would still put it towards finishing my courses and graduating. What is left I would put into a savings for my children in order for them to do the same when they eventually attend college.
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would pay off my current student loans and continue with my Masters Degree. I am a single mother of one child, I am currently unemployed for the second time in one year (due to the economy), and I am a full-time student. I study hard to keep my GPA up, which is a lot higher than my high school GPA of 2.0. Now that I am older, I know what it is like to work hard in school and to achieve my goals.
May 14th, 2010 | #
$50,000? Well, it’d be awesome to not have to bust my behind at a job where it doesn’t pay the bills, let alone cover tuition. I’ve tried for over 4 years to finish 2 associates’ degrees, and finances have not been favorable. So if I win, there’s one step closer to doing God’s will for my life.
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship for 50K I would move down to part-time so I can focus more on my education. Right now I am trying to go to school full-time and work full-time to pay for school. However, I am still going to be in debt from the loans I have to take out. A 50k scholarship would be a true blessing for me and if there is extra money I would help my older brother pay for his college education as well.
May 14th, 2010 | #
I would use it to fund my dream career goal.
May 14th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship life would be so much easier. I would not have to stress about how I will pay for the next month of school. I would be able to focus more on my studies to maintain my 3.9 GPA and attain my goal of becoming an accountant. Also I would join the study abroad program to experience life in another countries and learn more on the world stage.
May 14th, 2010 | #

What would I do with a $50,000 scholarship? Wow, that would greatly help me in paying off some tuition and getting me one step closer to paying off the multitude of loans I already have. The rest, if any were left over, I would definitely save for those “rainy days”. I have learned my lesson in spending everything and not saving enough. I don’t like repeating history, because then I have just proven to myself that I learned nothing from the past experience.
May 13th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my school and car loans. Its not a huge amount but going for my Bachelors degree takes a lot of money and with the economy, its hard to get. I would be very thankful to graduate college without any loans and start off on a good note and on my way to building my career.
May 13th, 2010 | #
A scholarship would mean the freedom to pursue the dream I have had since I was eight years old. I have always wanted to be a doctor. I have decided the major would be in Theology. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist so my goal is to combine therapy with spirituality. It brings a deeper level of freedom and healing to focus on a more holistic approach.

If I won the 50,000 dollar scholarship, I would use the money to further my future career as a nurse. I plan to get my BSN in nursing with a minor in Spanish. Upon completion of my Bachelors degree in nursing, I plan to move to the Phillipines and be a nurse there for two years. I absolutely love this country and would love to be a nurse here because I feel they need nurses who really care for them and who are not just interested in making money. After finsishing my time thre I would love to come back to Florida and earn my masters degree specializing in oncology.
May 13th, 2010 | #
If I win, I will finish my Master Degree in Business Administration and continue a Doctorate Degree in Business. So that I could teach. I love being a firefighter but I can not go into burning buildings forever.
May 13th, 2010 | #
Fifty thousand dollars would not only radically change my life, but also pave the way for my entire community to change. The education I plan on recieving when I start school this fall will give wisdom and insight into my future plans in Youth Ministry. My goals and visions are for a stonger, better community; free of drug abuse, alcoholism, and domestic violence.
May 13th, 2010 | #
If I received $50,000 in scholarship money I would use most of it to pay off the Stafford Loan, but the remainder of the money would be used to take the time off to work solely on my education, and getting my assosciates -> Bachelors in IT.
May 13th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would mean so much to me.
I’m preparing to leave home to go to the opposite side of the country for schooling.
I don’t know anyone there and I’ve never been there myself, so I’m going to be starting all over.
My family is taking out loans and so am I, just to cover everything.
I really wish I didn’t have to put everyone into debt.
I just want to pursue my dream without putting a financial strain on everyone.
May 13th, 2010 | #
Wow, to get a $50,000 scholarship would be amazing. I would first finalize my degree in Libral Arts since I only have one class to take before they hand me my degree. Then I would pay off my student loans. To have that amount of debt off my back would be awesome and such a relief. If there is anything else left I would put some away to fund my children’s education and I would use a portion to help fund a family vacation my family and I honestly deserve it.
May 13th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship, I would use the money to acheive a double Masters in Music Performance and Education so that I can one day work as a college level music professor and paid recording artist/performer. I have spent the last year putting myself through college, and I have worked very hard and made many sacrifices to further my education. It would be a great relief to know that I can afford my education without the constant fear of losing what little income I have.
May 13th, 2010 | #
I’ve already been accepted to Metro College of Denver and I would use the scholarship to finish. I am currently working 2 fulltime jobs and going back to school fulltime, while taking care of my fiance. He’s very ill and I have to take him to doctors appointments, cook, clean, and help remember even the simplest things (like what day it is). Taking care of him is a job in itself, and the two fulltime jobs are very difficult time consumers. I would be able to spend all my time going to school and taking care of him instead of working 80 hours a week, going to school, and taking care of him. I have fibromyalgia, which makes it even harder.
May 13th, 2010 | #
My ultimate goal after college is to live a debt free life and possibly pursue a higher education as a nurse practitioner of pediatric oncology. These goals will be more feasible with a scholarship that would wash out my student loans.
May 12th, 2010 | #
Winning that would help repay loans and allow me to not only continue my education, but also set up a college fund for my future children so they wouldn’t have to struggle the way I am to continue my education and get a degree.
May 12th, 2010 | #
It would give me the confidence that i need to really believe that i would be able to go to school and follow my dreams..It would mean more to me then anything, because going back to school is hard enough and to find the money for it is even harder..Without money like that i still pray that it would be possible to continue to follow my dreams.
May 12th, 2010 | #
I believe that every hard-working and determined student trying to fullfil their dreams and better the world deserves a 50,000 dollar scholarship. I cannot find work and my single mother is disabled so there are no funds, just like the many millions of future/current students. But being an American i already have all that i could ever need no matter how far in debt i will become because when there is a will there is a way. I know that with or without 50,000 dollars i will exceed all my goals in life. For this reason I believe this money should be donated to third world/low poverty countries in the world, to uneducated children. The whole point of getting a higher education is to better our society. If the money is given to those who never had a chance they could use their education to help better their communities.
May 12th, 2010 | #
If I recieved a $50,000 scholarship, I would be much less stressed over how I am going to pay for my upcoming 5 years of college. I have already worked hard to get my Associate’s Degree before I have even graduated high school. I graduate from high school next week, but I already have my college diploma. I am so thankful that there are wonderful opportunities like this to help people out with their worries regarding paying for college. Thank you for this great opportunity!

May 12th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 scholarship I would use some of it to pay off my private student loans. That way I could finish my bachelors and masters and stay at home with my future family. Then use some of it to pay for drivers training and car insurance. This would be helping me to become an awesome elementary school teacher.
May 12th, 2010 | #

May 12th, 2010 | #
Hi,

May 12th, 2010 | #
I am almost done with my degree, but have run out of money and also over my head in debt because of school tuition. I would use $50k to pay for the rest of school, pay off the credit cards and student loans, and work less so I could do some volunteer work in my field to gain more experience.
May 12th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will pursue my dreams of obtaining a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling. I work with at-risk youth and I am looking forward to giving back to the community.
May 11th, 2010 | #
If i win the scholarship I would have less worries about where money is going to come from, and do I have enough to go to summer school. All those thoughts would be a thing of the past and I could look to the future and see myself graduating and being successful… Not saying that I’m not now, I’m just saying it would be easier. Thanks
May 11th, 2010 | #
If I got this scholarship, the stress on my family would be diminished significantly and we could just take care of what needs to be taken care of. One less thing to worry about would be a blessing.
May 11th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, I will use to money towards some of my school loan debts as well as continued education
May 11th, 2010 | #
Winning a scholarship would mean that I can finally complete my degree in nursing. I would be able to actually take care of my daughter because I would be able to find a better paying job instead of living pay check to paycheck. I would also be able to pay off many outstanding student loans that I have. I want to show my daughter the benefits of finishing school before it is too late. I want to be able to do something that I am happy doing instead of something just to pay the bills.
May 11th, 2010 | #
i am attending college now this is my freshman year and i love the school that i attend and would very much like to graduate from there finacally i may not be able to return to my school for my sophmore year so if i won a schlorship i would be able to continue going to the school that i really want to graduate from.
May 11th, 2010 | #
if i had 50,000 dollars first and for most I would be real thankful and thank scholarship points and God. I would put that money towards my tuition for school becuase I am having a lot of trouble paying for school and can not take out anymore loans and low financial aid assistance I have been taking off semesters and working to get money as well if I had any money remaining I would put it towards my nephews college. If I do receive this scholarship it would open the doors to success and I would be the first person in my family to graduate out of five siblings which I am the youngest and including my parents. I believe if I win it will be the best pick and good luck to all the students hoping to win. God Bless everyone
May 11th, 2010 | #
If I had a scholarship, I would use the money for the rest of college and if there is any left, I would pay back people.
May 11th, 2010 | #
If I were to be ever so blessed to win a $50,000 scholarship, I would definately direct these funds strictly towards my college education and my dream of becoming a doctor. This would help my mother tremendously by alleviating the weight of funding my college education herself from her shoulders. I would be thankful beyond measure, and I’m sure my mother would be as well.
May 11th, 2010 | #
f I win a 50,000 scholarship, I will think of a high prestige school for my another track of grad study in medical science

Winning this amount of money would really change my future. I am trying to get through college with as little debt as possible. Unfortunately my family doesn’t make enough to pay out of pocket and they make too much to qualify for much assistance.
May 11th, 2010 | #
I was accepted to NYFA and they have zero government backing. The fee for their MFA in screenwriting is 50k on top of living expenses in LA. I’m not sure how to pay it other than scholarships like this.

May 11th, 2010 | #

If I was to win the $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to pay for college. I have always wanted to teach in inner city schools, predominantly art. I love art, and have seen how it touches lives. Truthfully, art has saved my life. After a suicide attempt in 2009, I was able to overcome my depression through simple, safe artistic expression. I have formed bonds and friendships through my high school art class that have also saves lives and taught great life lessons. If I hadn’t been taking the class this semester, one of my best friends wouldn’t be alive today. His mental state has never been very good, and after the death of his father he began a drastic downhill spiral. But between our art teacher and myself we were able to restore his faith in himself and his art and in humanity. If I won this scholarship, I would use it to follow the path to becoming an art teacher, so that I can show students that self expression is healthy and enjoyable, teach a new generation the respect and beauty of fine art, and someday touch and change lives.
May 9th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000, I would use the money to pay for my college costs so that I can become a Child/Teen Psycologist and help them live the best lives possible. Also, my mom would not have to help me with college expenses and would be able to save up enough money so that she can retire and finally get to rest.
May 9th, 2010 | #
If I won a 50,000 scholarship, I would make such I pay for my college tution, room and board,etc. It would be nice because it would be one less thing for my parents and I to worry.

May 9th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would get me out of the debt that private school has put me in. I relocated for a major that I have recently decided my heart is no longer in and dream of transferring to a school that offers the program in hospitality/tourism management that I dream of. Receiving any financial assistance will get me out of the financial hole and allow me to be closer to my dream of bigger and better things.
May 9th, 2010 | #

May 9th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would help me in many many ways. I would be able to pay the rest of my tuition as well as pay off all my loans, a difficult feat when your family has no money and you are perusing an artistic career. I could use this money to fund my art. I would be able to by the art supplies necessary to keep painting as well as cast and bronze the sculptures i have but can not afford to keep safe in their current state. I would be able to fund my aspirations to become a production designer and start making my own films. My future depends on having money, but unfortunately, getting into the business of my desire requires spending a lot and working for nothing at first.
May 9th, 2010 | #
I would pay my student loans and i would keep some for myself as i am getting married and i will have a baby too.

May 7th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 to use for school, I would continue to enhance my skills to further my education for my business. As a United States orphan, the world looks down on you…like you amount to nothing. I am not only determined to prove them wrong, but one day be able to help other United States orphans go to school and believe more in themselves. I believe that some of us need to stand up and be heard. Going back to college is not just important to me, but also to my children. It will make a difference to U.S. orphans everywhere. Together, I believe that we can make a difference.
May 7th, 2010 | #

May 5th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship, it would be a complete blessing in disguise. As a teacher, I don’t make a lot of money. I love what I do, but paying back my Bachelor’s degree and trying to go back to school for my Master’s is taxing and time-consuming. Not only is it expensive, but would allow me to not have to worry about how to pay back my student loans and instead, teach the students I love more!!

If I won the 50 thousand dollar scholarship I would apply it to my student loans that I already have and continue my education. Being a single mother I want to show my son how imporant it is to go to school to better yourself in life. Life is about learning and how better than to go to school and get an education. I dont want to have to be paying off my student loans when he is going to school too. I would like to be able to help him and make it a little easier on him. I know when it is hard financially it doesnt motivate you to want to continue your schooling.

A $50,000 Scholarship will bring alive the dream I have of helping my Community by being a Victim’s Advocate in domestic violence for adults and children; and, help those individuals who may have had their Civil Rights violated. In my community the percentage rate of abuse is high and most are either very low income or underpriviledged which makes them targets. I intend to use my Degree earned in Criminal Justice to be of assistance to the Local and State Law Enforcement Agencies. I am a non traditional student and my Community needs me!

With the $50,000 I would be able to pay off my $50,000 in loans from my bachelor’s degree and it would leave me with around $22,000 in loans for my Master’s degree and the $15,000 that I owe my grandmother for my car since I haven’t been able to find a job. I would probably pay my grandma first and then apply the rest to my college loans.

Scholarships are the only way I can go to college. I’d buy books, pay for tuition, and replace that old 92 plymouth voyager with that needs a transmission. I’ll work hard, get straight A’s, and really appreciate the opportunity! Best wishes to the one who receives the award.
May 5th, 2010 | #
If I won then finding more scholarships for tuition and books wouldn’t be so hard for my family and I

A $50,000 scholarship would greatly reduce my parents’ debt. I feel so guilty having to put the burden of my school on their shoulders. I go to the Georgia Institute of Technology and am studying public policy in hopes of becoming a patent lawyer. If I am successful, I know that I will be able to pay them back for all of their gracious payments toward my school. I just hate seeing my family go through financial turmoil and struggle to pay bills, all because they are spending copious amounts of money a month for my room and board, my books, and my tuition. This scholarship would allow me to be responsible for my own college education funding and pay back my parents for all of their generosity.
May 5th, 2010 | #
it will be greate idea i would be able to go to any college i wante to.
May 5th, 2010 | #
If we win this would pay for our daughter’s next two years plus books and would make it easier on all of us and greatly reduce the amount on loans she would have take out.

If I won a $ 50,000 scholarship I would use it to pay for tuition at the University of Miami.
May 5th, 2010 | #
Gosh, this would help pay all my fees.
May 5th, 2010 | #
I would put it toward the tuition, books, and other expenses to gain my AA in Musical Theatre. After I get my AA I plan to go to a University to get my BA in Music Education, so any money left over from a 50k scholarship would be put towards the costs of attending university courses.
May 5th, 2010 | #
If I were to win this $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to pay for my schooling with out any help from my parents, or my husband. I am currently a sophomore at a community college. I still have two years to go to obtain my AAS in Radiology Technology. Money has become extremely tight since my attending college. If I did win this scholarship, not only would I be able to pay for the rest of my college, I would be able to pay off my husbands student loans and have a little extra to put away for future expenses. Living on one income is very hard and there have been times that we have been unable to pay for groceries, with two kids there are times that my husband and I don’t eat! I hope you consider me for this scholarship.

I would not have to join the Navy to pay for college.
May 4th, 2010 | #
if i won 50,000 from a scholarship it would make me really happy becuase id be able to pay my expenses for college without having to take out a loan and use wat is left on things that i need. i would have to be less worried about how i would pay for school and start worrying about my school work because lately thats what has been happening and i have the fear of not being able to attend the college of my dream and continue my education.
May 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will use this money to get the education I need. Getting education is the first and for most thing for me. To get good education one needs enough funds.
May 4th, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 scholarship, I would definitely pay off all the schooling I could with it. Any little bit helps, and that with take a huge load off my shoulders. 4 years in college is a burden when you have to pay for it with only one parent helping you out. It’s hard especially when you have an older brother that’s in college as well. But there’s no doubt that I would use that money wisely and to every advantage that I could. If I can make life easier for my mother, I will. That’s less stress that my family has to go through!
May 4th, 2010 | #
If i had $50,000 it would bring me out of debt and allow me to focus on my studies instead of finances. I have one semester left before i receive my second degree in Geological sciences. I am planning on attending Graduate school and i want to work as a Hydrogeologist managing water resources, glaciers, snow pack equivalents, and other water related subjects. I currently work as much as i can, have the full amount of student loans awarded to me bringing me further into debt, and i own my own business which is currently in the beginning stages and turning no profit. My parents no longer support me so i am trying to do all of this on my own. If life were easy everyone would succeed but it is not. I have taken the challenge to achieve a higher degree which is starting to seem harder and further away from accomplishing because of the system and the expenses that they come with.
May 4th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I could pay for my degree in Elementary Education. I have a twin sister in college and two other siblings, so I know this money would help my parents out so much. It would be so great to able to help with cost!
May 4th, 2010 | #
With a $50,000 Scholarship, I could not only pay my schooling off, including nursing school, in which I will be entering here in the next year, but I would be able to taking out laons and prevent myself from going into debt. Winning this $50,000 scholarship we considerably change my life.
May 4th, 2010 | #
I will spend this money on my college tuition so i dont have to take out a huge loan
May 4th, 2010 | #
i will pay for a degree course in biochemistry and molecular biology
May 4th, 2010 | #
If I was to win a $50,000 I would first get my masters in my decided field of study and once I had graduated I would invest most of the money and give the rest to my mother because she was the one who put me through school anyways and I know there is no possible way that I can ever pay her back but being able to pay for school myself with a scholarship would relieve her of much stress and she could focus on other things besides trying to pay for my schooling.
May 4th, 2010 | #
with a $50,000 scholarship i could completely pay for my current degree which would reduce the great burden on my family of 8.adn alow for me to persue a bachelors degree afterwards to even better provide for my family
May 3rd, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 dollars in scholarship money I would use it to pay back my school tuition that is in loans right now. school costs about a little less than 20,000 a year. so that would pay for 2 and a half years at college minus the interest that the loans would give me. If I ended up having any extra money left, I’d give some of it to my hard working amazing parents. Then, if there was still any left I would give it to charity to give back to those who are less fortunate than I am.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
$50,000 could let me go to school knowing that everything is paid for. I could completely concentrate on school, and not have to worry where I would get the money to pay for it. This could really help me achieve my dream of becoming a nurse.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
I received my Bachelors in Music Education and now I am persuing my advanced training in opera performance in New York City this Fall. As one of the most expensive cities in the country, $50,000 would help not only for my tuition but also allow for some breathing room when it comes to living in such an exciting, cultural mecca. Many are unaware of how much time, effort, and money is required to actively persue a career in opera. Voice lessons, coachings, acting lessons, language lessons, music, travel, special clothing, application fees….it all adds up so fast. And to be perfectly frank, we’re called starving artists for a reason. You may get to do what you love, but you don’t get paid much to do it! Many of us work 50+ work weeks only to pay for all of the necessary expenses that come with being a performer. $50,000 would be a dream come true and could provide me with more money and time to become a better singer and performer.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
I may not e able to return to school next semester. I have maxed out on loans, and after working for hours on end, I still cannot make ends meet. I am only a sophomore at Syracuse University. No one is helping me pay for school, and there is still a significant amount of need unmet. If I win a scholarship, I will pay the outstanding balance on my account. If I don’t, I will have to take a semester or even a year off to work for every other year until I finish college. I have always wanted to be a lawyer, and now I’m starting to see why it is so difficult for underprivileged people to rise up in this country, but with this scholarship I will step out of my situation.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
With a scholarship of this amount I wouldn’t have to worry about how I am going to pay for my senior year of University, instead I would be able to focus on my studies. I am so concerned with how I am going to pay for my housing, my bills, and school for the upcoming year. I have been job hunting day in and day out but have been thus far unsuccessful.
I would also be able to get health insurance, something for me, a student with disability that I am in dire need of. This money would mean a great deal to me, for my education and my health.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
This scholarship could honestly mean the world to just about anyone. But for me, it could guarantee security in my life and my return to the college of my dreams next year. I currently go to William Woods University which is not a cheap school. I am thankful to have two very wonderful grandparents who have taken me in and payed for my education. But this semester things have gone downhill. I have had the luck of getting a professor that does not like me or the work that I enter. Along with that, my grandparents health have begun to slip which has caused me to miss classes and my grades to drop. I started the semester with all A’s and B’s and the last three weeks they have gone to B’s and C’s which are not acceptable to my grandparents or myself. Since this school is kind of pricey, my grandparents are considering not sending me back due to this situation. This school means the world to me. I understand that anyone could say this, but I do not think you would fully realize how important it is unless you met me. This is where I found friends and stability. Leaving this school would not only hurt me emotionally, but I believe it will also take away the future possibilities for me to strive in the graphic design business. So I request this scholarship not only just to allow my grandparents to let me stay in college, but to allow me to stay in a place that i really call home.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
Use it to pay for school, then pay off my husband’s loans (well part of them) so we won’t have to be paying off forever.

I recently finished my bachelor’s in Psychology from Kaplan University online and am hoping to remain online for my master’s in professional counseling. Ultimately, I am working toward licensure and would love to start my own practice someday. With a family and economic stresses, I am finding it difficult to overcome the financial strains of countinuing my education so a scholarship like this would be a true blessing both to me and my family.
May 3rd, 2010 | #
I recently graduated from college with a 3.5 GPA. I received my Bachelors of Science in Management of Human Resources. I am very proud of my accomplishment, but seriously is concern about how I will pay back some of my student loans. This particular scholarship will surely help me not only in paying off all my student loans, but also will pay for me furthering my education.
May 3rd, 2010 | #

May 3rd, 2010 | #
I am wanting to go to a christian college, which is a private university. At first my parents told me i could go and they would pay. But recently have changed their mind and now if I don’t go there i will end up living at home go to my local community college. My tuition is $24,000 a year, and $50,000 would cover 2 years expenses and then I would pay the rest or find scholarships for good grades. Also my grades are good but not where they need to be to receive a scholarship for them. I plan to major in Business Marketing and Management and potentially hospitality. I know it will be hard. But I am willing to do the work.
May 2nd, 2010 | #

May 2nd, 2010 | #

May 2nd, 2010 | #

I am a high school senior who is very concerned about her future. Many things are in my mind at this moment. I have graduation coming up and college life so close by. I have been accepted to several prestigious colleges in North Carolina. I am so proud but still worried. I am a proud Latina who aspires to attend college this fall and make all her dreams become a reality! I want to be a teacher who will unselfishly illuminate the world to those around me. My mom is a single parent who tries every day for our family to have food on our plates every day. I am a first generation college-bound in my family. I am proud and excited. Though, I still need a helping hand. I truly believe I need financial assistance and I will be eternally grateful for your help. I would like to take one burden away from my mom. A scholarship will really make my day and life much easier. I trust the Lord and I really hope you are reading this. I need your help. Please and I hope you contact me for any good news! Thanks..

April 29th, 2010 | #
I am a single mother of a young child and aspire to become a Forensic Pathologist. While I qualify for grants, I have maxed out my loans and cannot qualify for more. I cannot pay for school on grants alone and could pay for a lot of my education with $50000. I would love to be able to support my daughter and myself without worrying, and the only way for that to happen is through a college education.
April 29th, 2010 | #
I would have the opportunity to go to college full time instead of working and school part time each. I’d use part to pay other expenses but most would go to education expenses so I would have less to pay back after graduation.
April 29th, 2010 | #
If I won a fifty thousand dollar scholarship, I would never have to worry about college expenses again. I would probably faint upon getting the check.
April 29th, 2010 | #

April 29th, 2010 | #

If I got this money, I wouldn’t worry about trying too many scholarships at one time. I would still apply for as many scholarships as I could but this kind of money would put my mind at ease for a while. I would put this money in the bank and only use it when needed. It would be an awesome blessing to get this money and the stress level of my parents would go down a lot because they cannot help me pay for college in the first place so it would be a major blessing to anyone who really needs this.

April 27th, 2010 | #
If i won 50,000$ i would pay off everything for my school, books, tuition, housing, id have it all paid off. Anything left id pay my mother and grandfather back for the money they have spent on my college already. After my father and stepdad passed away my mom has had it harder with money.

April 27th, 2010 | #

My objective is to sharpen up on my computer software skills, as well as my office skills. It has taken me a while to find the right kind of job that offers stability, pay rate and benefits that are able to support myself and a family.
I can only do so with your generous support that keeps me motivated and going. Knowing that someone is concerned about my education and welfare gives me all the confidence in the world, that I can make it in today’s economic society. In meantime, my goal is to work in a clerical environment where I can utilize my computer and office skills and advance with the company. Moreover, my long-term goal is to obtain my Computer Science, Business Management, Accounting and Early Childhood Development certificate. Which will allow me to combine my skills and knowledge in order to start my own business.
I really appreciate all of the support that your organization provides for others like myself, who are very fortunate and who are able to plan for a better future for themselves and their families. Thank you, again for your support and I am looking to hearing from you soon.
April 27th, 2010 | #
IF I WIN THIS MONEY, I WOULD RETURN TO SCHOOL.
April 27th, 2010 | #
I would go back to finish college, after being financialy interrupted just after my freshman year at Philadelphia Biblical University. I would continue to learn and grow in the knowledge of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and study harder than i’ve ever studied in my life. That won’t be a problem because I love studying the Bible already. Thank You
April 26th, 2010 | #
If I win the Scholarship I will use the funds to help with my tuition and materials.Then I would use the rest fo any expenses needed after like housing..ect.

I am a first generation college student and I have spent my entire academic career in preparation for achieving a degree from an accredited university. I want to be an adoption social worker and find families for children. As such, my ability to travel after college will be diminished exponentially. As a junior at Elon University in North Carolina, I have proven my dedication for learning as a College Fellow, one of those in the top 20% of students at my school. I am involved in various clubs and I plan on studying abroad in Florence, Italy next spring. Without sufficient scholarship funds, I will be unable to take advantage of the wonderful opportunity my school has provided me to study in a different culture. My Italian blood makes me even more eager to explore my heritage first hand, and living in Florence for four months is the opportunity of a lifetime. I plan to use my scholarship money to pay for school and my study abroad experiences, as well as to fund the research in adoption services I will be doing my junior and senior years.
April 26th, 2010 | #
This scholarship would be everything I need. I cannot file for any type of financial aid because my parent refuse to help me in this situation. This would be the key to my success.
April 26th, 2010 | #
If I were to wim 50k I would be so relieved about the rest of my college experience. I wouldnt have to worry about loans and classes giving me too many projects. It would be an amazing thing.
April 25th, 2010 | #

My parents have three kids, including me…and they just started their business with all the money they had…but as you know, the economy is really bad and we have really bad financial situation right now…I really want to major in Pharmacy but I got only accepted into a Private school, which is really expensive…If I don’t have enough money, I have to go to State school, majoring in something I don’t even want…I really need this scholarship to fulfill my dream!
April 25th, 2010 | #

April 25th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship my mind would finally be at ease. For the first time in my life I would not have to worry about paying bills and would be able to fully focus on my schooling and making my dreams come true. I would be able to forge a better life for myself, and by doing so help others immensely. Especially my family, who have sacrificed so much to help me get into college. I would truly appreciate – more than anyone could know- any financial assistance.
April 25th, 2010 | #

April 25th, 2010 | #
Well, if I had that kind of money I would; pay off some debts that I might have. I would also enroll in an online class/ campus, and put the rest in a saving/checking account until I figure out how I should spend the rest.

If I had 50,000 dollars I would pay for college and help my mom and dad out. They have always helped me out, even when times were tough. I want to pay them back for what they have spent for me to go to college. They really can’t afford it. They work so hard and I want to pay them back.

I would feel so grateful if I could receive a scholarship to attend college. Aside from juggling cheer, track, AP classes, car payments, and my monthly phone bill, it would be nice to receive a scholarship, so I won’t have so much on my head to take care of. I would use the money for my tuition for medical school
April 24th, 2010 | #
If I win the scholarship, the money would lessen the financial burden on my parents. They could apply the money saved toward my siblings education.
April 24th, 2010 | #

If I won the $50,000 scholarship, I would use it on my first two to three years of tuition at the College of Saint Scholastica. It would be wonderful to know that I would not have to worry about going into debt for another two to three years. Especially since I am looking at majoring in pharmacy which means I have six years of school to pay for.
April 23rd, 2010 | #
If I win the scholarship, I would be able to pay off all of my loans and buy my books without worrying about a budget limit, just like everyone else. However, the scholarship will also allow me to stay in school longer to pick up my teacher licensure and Entrepreneurship minor, which I currently have no extra money to do.
April 23rd, 2010 | #

If I got a $50,000 schlaorship it would enable me to go to school full time without worrying where the money will come from. I would be able to get my teaching degree oin Elementary education and start giving something back.
April 22nd, 2010 | #
If I wont the scholarship I would pay off all my student loans, past and future. I would use what is left to pay off my credit cards. If there was anything left I would use it to move to a more populated city so my degree would actually come in handy!
April 22nd, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship of that amount it would help me drastically because that much more of my tuition would be paid, relieving part of my college worries.
April 21st, 2010 | #

If I had $50,000 for school firstly I’d cry. I have a huge student loan I was unable to use for school that I could pay off and still pay to go back to school. My family owns a small restaurant and when my mother had a heart attack I dropped out, came home, and got a student loan to keep us open. I’m a newly wed and my husband is in the military, there is no military assistance for me for school as of now so being able to go back once we get relocated would be a dream come true for my whole family.

If I won 50,000 dollars in cash I would pay off my student loans for my first year in college. Then I would put some of the money toward my current year in college and pay off whatever else needs to be paid off. If I had any extra money left over I would give it to my mother for all the hard work and money she put in to get me as far as I am now. If I won 50,000 dollars in scholarships then I would also do the same.
April 20th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 for a scholarship, I’d work really hard in class to keep that scholarship. I have a 2.88 GPA from baltimore City Community College. I took on-line class.I would continue to reach at my current University online program with a focus mind on my B.S. Business administartion degree and not worry about the money to pay for books, eat, living exspenses. I know if anyone going through my struggles right now, it’s hard to focus just on academics currently. With all money problems our economy and myself faces currently. I’m out of sate in my university and that makes it more exspensive and hard because my need base from pell grant is high need. And I want to better myself at my college, so if I had $50,000 I could focus just on my education and learning and not stress about how to pay my school for my higher educational opportunity. Please help me!
April 20th, 2010 | #
$50000…. Seriously!! I would be one of the happiest person in the world. I would be the first of all my parents’ children to go to college. Considering I am the seventh one for both of them combined.. that would be the best thing to ever happen to me since birth.
April 20th, 2010 | #
I would be more than happy, just imagine my college dream to become true!
:)
April 20th, 2010 | #

If I won a $50,000 scholarship my mind would finally be at ease. For the first time in my life I would not have to worry about paying bills and would be able to fully focus on my schooling and making my dreams come true. I would be able to forge a better life for myself, and by doing so help others immensely. Especially my family, who have sacrificed so much to help me get into college. I would truly appreciate – more than anyone could know- any financial assistance.
April 19th, 2010 | #
If I win the $50,000 scholarship it would help my family out a lot and allow me to continue to study to become a journalist!

It would be a blessing to receive this scholarship, this past eight months have been very difficult I lost my job where I was doing very well but due to the economy the company closed. Have been strunggling these past months with the market (job searching) It’s hard I’m not the only one without a job. So has a mom with a daughter going to Hight School this year I decide to go back to school, this opportunity will help improve my education and be able to find a better job and also help my family through these difficult times. I hope and pray that my prayers will be answer

If I win a 50,000 scholarship, I can get my master’s degree in the US without such a big burden to my family. After I graduated, which is only 1 year later, I can work in the area I like. I really do not like my major right now. I like to do something related to music.
April 19th, 2010 | #

If I were to win a scholarship it would increase my chance of making it through school to become a Registered Nurse.. It is very difficult for me at this time because I am a single mother and I do not have a job. I am currently looking for work and I will have to try to work nights and go to school during the day to make ends meet. I would be forever greatful if I were chosen to win a scholarship.
April 19th, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000 scholarship would be a blessing. My parents have made it very clear that they will find a way to help me receive higher education and with this scholarship I can help them out so that they can be reassured that I will receive that education. Also I would use it to help further my education pursuit when I go to medical school. Doing what you love to do for a living is very costly either financial or personally or emotionally. For me helping others in some way will most likely cost me in all three ways but the reward is much greater. This scholarship will not only help me but others in the long run as well.
April 19th, 2010 | #
I would be able to have less stress and focus soley on my schooling. From the past I had difficultly in studying because of the stress of dealing with finanical problems. I would be able to pay my existing balance at a past school. Also I would be able to continue to pay the interest of a loan; which give me a better credit score. Then I would be able to start paying the current schools I am attending and not be in anymore debit.
April 19th, 2010 | #
$50,000 will help me pay for what will be the most important investment ever made in my entire life, which will be my education. I will be able to follow my dream as being a lifelong learner, as well as a Nurse Practitioner traveling the world to help people living in many difficult conditions. $50,000 will help me get the best education as well as helping me help others. You grow up to learn that nothing in life is free. You need to work for the things that you desire. I learned not to ask for much. As an “about to be” graduate from high school, $50,000 will guide me to change the lives of others, and not only myself.
April 19th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship I would be able to buy all my necessities for school and pay off my tuition which unfortunately my parents don’t have enough for. Theres four of us kids and with each of us going to college right behind the other our budget is getting smaller and smaller.

April 19th, 2010 | #
What would I do if I received the 50,000 dollar scholarship? I’d be the happiest person! I’d actually be able to pay for school. It’s really hard paying for school when you don’t have the money and need to take out loans and end up paying more than you have to. I would finish my 8 month program in the current school I am in now. And then I would actually go to a University that I would be able to afford with the scholarship. I would become the nurse I always wanted to be! I would be blessed with this scholarship!
April 18th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to study abroad for art. The importance of studying abroad is undeniable, but especially true for those who study art. Being able to experience art from other countries, as well as those famous works we all study in their original context or from the culture in which they came is invaluable. I am studying to become an art teacher and the wealth of information I would have from a first hand account would positively impact the education of my students. With the scholarship I would be able to go right into a masters program, the ideal thing to do in education in these times of economic uncertainty. I would also be able to join the National Education Association and the National Art Education Association as well as attend their conferences in order to become the best teacher I possibly can.

What would I do with a 50k scholarship? I think it is obvious that we would use it for school because we don’t have enough money for school. But why even bother going to school if it is to expensive and there are so many budget cuts. Because I want to be a teacher and make a change in the lives of children. Not only do I want to educate them and fill them with the knowledge that is required of them by the state, but I want to make it fun for them. I don’t want school to be some tedious things that children have to attend for 13 plus years of their life. I want to make it an adventure, I want to make it enjoyable and something that children look forward to. When I was a kid, and even still now, found school tedious and boring and that it didn’t work for me. I want school to work for all children and be that teacher whose goal is to attend the learning needs and styles of all children. I don’t want school to just be school but I want to change it for the children of today!
April 17th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship, I would put the money towards all my college expenses. I go to a community college outside of my permanent living area, so I have to pay for apartment rent, groceries, etc. Also, with my major being photography, I have to purchase expensive equipment to do my assignments. Any sort of financial help would be greatly appreciated.
April 17th, 2010 | #
If i were to win a 50,000 dollar scholarship i would be so excited because i would be able to go to school and not worry about paying for it and not have to have my mom always worrying on how she can help me. I would be able to totally support myself, which would be a relief because i hate worrying my mom with how much she wants and tries to help me.
April 17th, 2010 | #

Game programming is the career I?m going to college for. For me, creating games is a wonderful thing. To be able to put my thoughts and ideas to form an entire new reality?that is my dream. When people play games they want to immerse themselves in that game and have fun. There is too much sadness in the world, and if I can make something that can relieve people of their troubles from everyday life, even for a few minutes, I will do it. Life is meant to be enjoyed!
April 16th, 2010 | #

In winning a $50,000 scholarship will pay for the loans that I have taken out in order to further my education. It has been difficult being a single mother of three and trying to get my oldest set up for college, he will be attending college within the next couple of years. Then if his brother chooses to go to college he will attend in another three to four years. Financially it has been difficult. This scholarship will at least remove the burden of having to pay back all my loans by myself. Thank you for this opportunity.
April 15th, 2010 | #
My family has always had financial trouble. For many years I never thought I would be able to go to college.

With this dagree and my focus in Baking and pastry, i will work toward opening my own bakery and being a contributing member of society.

I have been living on my own for almost a year now. I have worked full-time and part-time jobs while attending Waubonsee Community College where I have earned an Associate in Science degree. I am currently attending Benedictine University to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. Unfortunately, I was laid off from my full-time job, and might have to quit school all together. Scholarships would allow me to further my education and achieve my goals of becoming a successful Psychologist.
April 14th, 2010 | #

April 14th, 2010 | #
If i won a scholarship i would use the money to pay the tution that i have right now. Im a college freshman and my parents are barely helping me with my college payments. A scholarship would give me the oppurtunity of not having to worry about money and really utilizing my time to study to the max.
April 14th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship for $50k I’d apply it toward the current student loans for my liberal arts degree that I already have. With any leftover scholarship money, I’d use it toward my culinary degree that I’m going to school for now. By graduating with very little debt, I’d be able to focus on starting my own pastry shop!
April 14th, 2010 | #

April 14th, 2010 | #
When coming across a $50,000 scholarship, I just thought I’d give it a shot. If I were to win that amount of money, I would be forever thankful. Like many of the families in the United States facing financial issues, my family has also came across the issue. So school is really difficult to pay for.

April 13th, 2010 | #

April 13th, 2010 | #
Even though I will be going to college in the fall, I would probably not consider the $50,000 prize to be for a scholarship. Instead, I would use the $50,000 cash reward to get me started on my photography career. It has been my dream to own my very own business in shooting memories; not only is it just my dream, but I’ve put together an impressive portfolio as well. I guess you could say that it could be a “scholarship” since I am attending college for photography, but mainly I would use it for my progression after taking the courses.
April 13th, 2010 | #
If I win I would attend to university. Cause I haven’t got enough money to pay tuition fees.
April 13th, 2010 | #
This would be an amazing opportunity if i could win this money. Im already in college an loans that i undoubtedly had to take out to further my education will kill me once i have to pay them back. I grew up in a single parent house hold in Detroit Michigan. And not everyone from my city gets the grades, or even has the drive to continue their education but i am one of few who have. With a brother in the armed forces who also attend college the financial stress on my mother is immense. I have been trying to help her out by looking for scholarships that i can apply for but when your going into the career field that i am there arent that many scholarships out there. Im striving to become a japanese animation illustrator/ animator. And since its not business, law, or medical scholarships are hard to find. The money would help me ease the burden on my moms heart about my education. This scholarship would be a heaven sent for me and my family….i know that i would use the money for all the right reasons.
April 12th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to attend a holistic health universit to receive my Master’s of Science in Holistic Health, which is my goal.

April 12th, 2010 | #

April 12th, 2010 | #
I am 60, disabled, and would use any monies to pay towards my BA as only have 4 classes left to receive my associates

I would use it to get my MPH degree so that I could better treat the underserved people of the world. Since I raise my alary to work at a nonprofit and still owe money to school lenders, my ability to further my education to take care of these people is limited. This degree would open up many doors for me to help others who desperately need it.
April 12th, 2010 | #
With a scholarship I would be able to pay for school without having to take out a loan. I would be able to pay for school on my own which would be good. It would allow me to take the time I need in getting a quality education.
April 12th, 2010 | #

It would be a pleasure winning $50,000 scholarships toward my college education. This scholarship would benefit me in various ways towards earning my degree in a University I may choose to attend this fall. It could help me cover my tuitions, housing, and books I hope. Also I wouldn’t have to borrow any student loans that I would have to pay back in the future. Winning this scholarship would take a lot of pressure off me and my family financially because my mother is unemployed at this moment. Money is only coming in from my step-father right now to cover for me, my sister and my mother. Life is hard at times because all the money he earns goes right back into bills. I very had been trying to get a job since last year to see if my little earning I would receive could help at least towards something in the house hold but I still haven’t seen any hope. So earning this scholarship would mean the world to me especially because I would get a chance to focus more on learning and gaining the knowledge I need to pursue my goals. I want to attend a four year University with an intending major in Industrial Engineering or Architecture Engineering as a secondary major. But not being financially stable might take me a while to accomplish this dream.

If I were lucky enough to win a $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to pay student loans, and continue school for my bachelors degree, eventually a Masters. I am passionate about becoming an Advocate for patients who have no one to help them. Many people need a voice to advocate for proper care, as well as finacial help for families who are struck by tragedies, for instance children with cancer, or younger parents who become ill yet cannot pay for treatment. I am a single mom and I work double time trying to get to the point in my life where I can get a stable, good paying job. I know I will get there eventually, and the struggle won’t last forever if I just keep focused on my goals. It would be an amazing blessing to have $50,000 to help me get there!

I know that in these tough times, everyone could use as much help as possible. My family is one of the thousands who are suffering as a result of the economic recession. It was one thing for my dad to lose his job, but when he had to undergo an emergency operation in his intestinal track a month and a half ago, things took a turn for the worse. I know that those $50,000.00 would mean me going to school next August, and my parents being able to keep our house.

I would love to study abroad. I would love to travel to Mexico for a semester or a year and study. Another country would be Brazil. The vocalist/guitarist from one of my favorite Brazilian black metal bands is now a professor at a top university. It would be a great experience to go to these countries and study their cultures, art and history. I never had dreams of travel until I read a book about the history, thought and culture of the Azrecs. Ever since then I’ve wanted to (if everything works out) move there permanently, but for now I’d like to finish my studies.

In addtion to this i would be able to pay more attention to the students I’ll be tutoring in college and be able to focus on studying. I would not have to skip meals to pay for books and I would be able work a job knowing that it would not be the end of the world if I did get enough hours. In the end it would make it easier for me to fullfill my life’s dream of becoming a teacher and sharing my love of math with children.
April 8th, 2010 | #

College is not exactly cheap especially out of state tuition. If I won 50,000 I would put all the money towards school.

Getting a scholarship and not having to worry about how I am going to pay off my monthly payments for school will lower my stress and enhance my school performance.

I am trying to transfer to George Mason University from a Community College to take part in their Biotechnology program in order to become a forensic pathologist.

April 7th, 2010 | #

To incorporate that dedication in my studies, that if I am to win a scholarship, I would use the money for my college.

April 6th, 2010 | #

Winning $50,000 would incontestably be a life saver. I have dreams and ambitions, that go beyond my wildest imaginations. Unfortunately, nothing in life is free, and it cost to make a living in this world today.Many people are struggling in these economic times to make ends meet.My family is a living example, my father recently lost his job do to the tought economy.The ironic thing is that about five or so years ago he lost his job as well. We were just getting back on our feet, before the boom was lowered on us about three months ago.Money is tight, and bills are piling high.Right know,I can’t fathom where I will be as far as college.But I know, that all things work together for good to those love the Lord. I believe that Jesus Christ will use Scholarship Points to bless me, because it has been along journey and my family could definitely use the help.And in return, I know the Lord Jesue Christ will bless Scholarship Points back as well.Thank you for considering me, and taking the time to listen to me. Even if I don’t win, I will pray that Jesue Christ will bless all the employees and thier families at Scholarship Points. For blessing kids with the opportunity to reach their dreams and goals, dispite ethnicity, or race. As well as providing them with money to pay for college, or post- secondary education.Once again, thank you for taking your time to listen to me.

April 5th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50k scholarship money, I would have piece of mind knowing that my parents would be able to breath easier without the burden of sacrificing for my education. Tuition just keeps increasing out of control. I know my parents want the best for me and continually say they don’t mind paying, but I would prefer for them to not have to pay as much and, therefore, be able to enjoy some long-awaited travel.
April 5th, 2010 | #

My depression is so hard on me but if I had the money to go to criminal justice school so I could prove myself to my family. I just need the money to do that.

Second, I have always told my mom I would help her pay for some thing, so I would help her improve on her home, or be able to move into a better home. My mom is very important to me and helping her would be so awesome. She has dedicted the last 19 years to me, my disability, and getting my a high school diploma. She has sacrificed so much, it is the least I can do. Then I would save whatever was left over to help find a place to live and for bills, once I graduate from college.

I am a 35 year old learner enrolled in Axia Online. I have 3 children that I am trying to support as I go through my educational experience the same time they are getting their education. If I were to be blessed with winning, I would pay my college loan off so I don’t drown in a sea of payments after graduation. I would also help my children with items they need for school, and possibly pay a couple months of internet in advance. I take my college courses online so, it would be nice to know I didn’t have to worry and stress about that bill.
April 4th, 2010 | #
I would use it just to get a basic bachelor’s degree. I have no money for college and neither does my mom. My father is passed and I am the fifth child. It’s hard when everyone expects something out of you that can seem almost impossible. I’m going to be in debt to student loans for a long time…
April 4th, 2010 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship I wouldn’t have to worry about college anymore. Searching for scholarships that I can apply for and hoping that I win them would become a thing of the past.

As a single mother I will be going back to college as a full time student to get my masters in Criminial Justice working a part time job. I have 2 wonderful boys and my oldest son will be in his 1st year in college and my youngest will be his 1st yr at a boarding school for H.S. on a acedemic scholarhip. Yes,all 3 of us in school at the same time. I would use the $50,000 to pay all of my houshold expenses for a year, pay off all debt, pay for some of me and my oldest sons college education expenses, my oldest sons medical expenses, pay for misc education exp for my youngest son whos got a full scholarship to boarding school starting fall of 2010, and live with less stress and worry. This would be one of the Greatest Blessing in my life.

If I win a scholarship, I would pay for the tuition for the college that I have wanted to attend since I visited it on a summer camp in 8th grade. My dad is on disablilty and my mom works at a church, with 4 kids; there is no money left over for college. It would be such an opportunity to go to this college.
April 3rd, 2010 | #
If I could only by so lucky to have assistance to return to school I would get my Master’s Degree in nursing. I hope that as I get older and feel that hospital nursing is too hard on me that I will be able to share what I have learned with the next generation of nurses. I love my job and know that it takes education, dedication, and empathy to be a nurse. I have researched the possiblity of returning to school and, in this economy, I feel uncomfortable taking out a student loan. If I won a scholarship I could fulfill this dream and if allowed, help my adult children with school as well. I am thankful for the opportunity!

With $50,000 scholarship, not only I ‘ll be able to pay off tuition, money will also become less of a burden for my parents. I ‘m planning for a double major w/ a minor which definitely not able to graduate on time. My brother is a high school student who is going to gradute within 4 months. Since he’s attending college soon, which means my parents will need to pay double amount for me and my brother. I hope if I do get the money, my parents won’t get much burden. Thus my brother and I can continue our education in our colleges.

If i won a 50,000 dollar scholarship i would put it towards my schooling so i can get my bachelor of science degree in nursing

To whom it may concern:
My name is Sarah Thompson. I am a twenty-six year old student, recently having returned to college. It feels great to be in college again. I am currently enrolled at the University of New Orleans in the College of Education and Human Development.
If I were to be blessed enough to win a $50,000 scholarship, my first objective would be to pay off what I owe on student loans. I have two to three years left of school and I already have to pay back more than $8,000 in loans, interests not included. The rest would go into a safe deposit box where it can collect interest. I would pay the rest of my eventual college fees off with all that I could of the scholarship money left over. I plan to not only take spring and fall courses but summer courses as well. I hope to graduate as soon as possible and go out in the world with what I will have learned. I feel very inspired about my future career in education and look forward to what I can do to make a difference.
Here is a little more about myself. Again, my major is “Education and Human Development.” It was previously Psychology before I decided not to return. I am from an area which was greatly affected by Katrina, my hometown being where the eye of the storm first hit. It was too difficult and stressful to continue after a time and I needed to be with my family.
Now that I am back on track, I am concentrating on Early Childhood Education, aspiring to become a Second Grade Teacher. As soon as I graduate, I plan to work abroad as a teacher, spending a year or more in a developing country (or countries). The Peace Corps, among many others programs I am considering, offers many opportunities for people like me looking to make a difference through teaching. I have many, many nations in which I would like to work, but I will most likely concentrate on one in Latin America. I love working with children and would like to teach English and maybe pick up Spanish along the way.
Thank you for considering me for the scholarship. While winning $50,000 toward school is a equally advantageous for anyone, you can count on my receiving this scholarship as being a huge investment – not only in my education but also in this country and maybe even the world.
Sincerely,
Sarah Elizabeth Thompson

I could pay all of my tuition costs for the Midwifery program I am starting this term! If I had $50,000 I would relax knowing I could simply focus on school and learning. It would be easier to fully immerse myself in my studies, since I don’t have to worry about coming up short with tuition costs, that go beyond what financial aid covers. Therefore I would not have the stress of an added work load and looking for more part time work to earn all the money I need. My parents might feel a welcomed breath of fresh air, since they are not in a position to help me financially, with my education. I would not have much debt to pay back, so I could really focus on my career and invest money and energy into the beautiful, full service clinic I hope to establish, to care for women and infants. My goals would be much easier to attain with this money. One of my goals is to provide health care for a population of people who are under served and in great need. I hope to travel as much as possible to reach and care for those who do not have the access they need to good care. $50,000 would certainly put my mind at ease and brighten my future and hopefully help enrich the lives of others!

April 2nd, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to pay for all my college costs because I’ve asked my parents for quite a bit and I don’t want them to have to pay for college too. I don’t like asking for money either, it makes me uncomfortable.
April 2nd, 2010 | #
My daughter and I are both in college so this 50,000 would go along way in helping us pay our bills. It would allow us to buy another car it would just simply be a blessing to me to win.

The scholarship would be the best gift I could ever have the honor to be awarded.

If I ever had the stroke of luck of being chosen to win 50 grand, I would obviously, like many other students, use it on tuition, books, housing cost, and etc. However considering the fact that $50,000 is a lot of money, I would not only spend it on yearly school cost but studying abroad programs as well to obtain knowledge beyond my limitations and experience in the reality that the world can give.
April 1st, 2010 | #

April 1st, 2010 | #
When asked why I merit consideration for this scholarship, my answer is simple. I will persevere above all the exigent situations college will undoubtedly bring, and I will come out triumphant. All the work I put into my high school career was well worth it, and I will work that much more and push my limits even further in college. That’s why I would be honored to take this opportunity.

March 31st, 2010 | #
I returned to school two years ago with a strong, defined, and intense sense of purpose. Beforehand, I had not gone to school for almost fourteen years. I am pursuing my career right now. A $50,000 scholarship would not only pay for the rest of my schooling at a 4 year university, it would allow me to begin preparing temporally by investing some money in the stock market. I could also put some away for the occasional rainy day. It is wise to be frugal and prepared these days.
March 31st, 2010 | #
I plan to use any money I win from scholarships to pay tuition and living expenses. I am recently divorced with 5 kids, trying to get on my feet.

March 31st, 2010 | #
If I were to win 50,000 dollars, the first thing I would do was scream (probably for several minutes while jumping up and down!) It probably would make my year! I would love to be able to apply that money to school, books, and rent. I have spent the past two years getting straight A’s and working hard academically. I have successfully gotten into a four year university and plan on transferring this coming Fall 2010. This money would help me out tremendously!

March 30th, 2010 | #
With $50,000 I would defiantly pay for everything, tuition, books, etc. But I would also use the money to study abroad which can be very expensive. Whatever I learn or do I want to be able to give back to not just my family but to my community. I would invest the money in school but I also want to give that same money back to the community. Maybe even to those who are having difficulty paying for college.

March 28th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship for 50,000 that would take a lot off my mind. I’ve never been to college and no one in my family ever went. I’m the first. It’s not about making more money for me it’s about doing something I love. I’m going into the healthcare field. I’ve a got a big heart and helping others is more important to me than making money. I just want to make a difference. I’m not very fortunate but I’m more fortunate than some. I feel that if god wants it to be he will make it happen. I’m glad there are programs out here that can help.
March 28th, 2010 | #
With any scholarship, I would pay for books first, tuition, and then room and board. The only college I want to attend is Norwich, with the Corp of Cadets – and tuition for that is 200K. I don’t want to give up hope, not this far, it’s the only thing that is keeping me motivated at this point. Whoever is reading this, keep applying as much as you can. There are no handouts out in the rough, harsh world.
March 28th, 2010 | #
If I could win the 50,000 scholarship, I would be able to study in an area, and at a college, which benefits my major much more and where I can get the full extent of education I wish to gain. I will be able to attend my dream college, without the stress or worry of finding funding for out of state tuition, books, residency, etc. In return, after grad school, I will be able to generously give back to my community, as this scholarship would do for me.
March 27th, 2010 | #
if i win a 50,000 scholarship i wound pay off my previous student loan ,my online student loan and then i would enroll into a community college that i wanted to go to attain cosmetology license maybe in business.
March 27th, 2010 | #
If I win any type of scholarship I would highly appreciate it because it’s hard going to school and work both full time. I believe even though I’m a hard worker and always want to fulfill my goals it’s hard to concentrate on school when you have other things to think about like paying for school and other bills. My parents don’t help me at all with my tuition because they have other things to pay. I believe if I did get a scholarship I would be able to focus more on school and get a better education for myself in the future.
March 27th, 2010 | #
I would use the fifty thousand dollars to pay for my way through my first semester at either NC State University, Duke University, or Georgetown University, depending on where I go. Instead of having to work long hours and worry about how I would pay for a student loan, I would be able to focus on my studies and excel at the school that I end up going to.
March 27th, 2010 | #
i would spend it on going to college so i can get my life gud to set me up for the future
March 27th, 2010 | #
50k would be more than enough to pay for my remaining years of college. With that money I could start paying off my students loans while still attending college. I could also pay for tutoring for a LSAT program so that I increase my LSAT scores for my Law school application.
March 27th, 2010 | #
If I win 50k it will pay for my college.I can focus my education more. My young sister just had a baby at 17, my mom have to buy for the baby and trying to help me through college,is getting harder any scholarship will be ahelp.
March 27th, 2010 | #
I could continue to attend pharmacy school
March 27th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would save study abroad. I would sav my money fo school tuition. That would be amzing my life would have took a big leap. It is overwhelming just imagining about it. I have to work now to pay for books and its not easy. I might even buy a car, not having to take the bus anymore would be a miracle. I hate taking the bus especially when its hot outside. If I won a $1000 scholarship that is a lot for me, $50,000! is unimaginable for a college student.
March 27th, 2010 | #
If I win the $50,000.00 Scholarship, I will be able to complete my career debt free and stress free. I can support myself without bothering my family to support me and I will be able to concentrate in my career. It will be awesome to have that peace in mind. Thank you.
March 27th, 2010 | #
I will use it well for my education and be a history maker and make God, and my family be proud of me.
March 27th, 2010 | #
thanks so much this has really given me new ideas
March 27th, 2010 | #
if i were to win a 50,000 dollar scholarship it would be the absolute best thing that ever happened to me! i need movey for my college tuition so badly!
March 26th, 2010 | #
I would achieve all my dreams and I would try to help others to achieve theirs as well. And I also would help my mohter financially. Even If I don’t get a $50000 scholaship I plan to do this. The scholarship would just be 5 steps of the ladder where I haven’t set my feet yet.
March 26th, 2010 | #
Wow oh wow!! What would I do with a 50,000 scholarship you ask? I would finish school and go on to gradute school. Then I would pay off all of my debt and start my daughter a college fund. I am single mother doing it on my own. It gets really hard sometimes and I really do not have enough money to finish school. I do not want to drop out . I want my daughter to see that I finish what I start.
March 26th, 2010 | #
I would finish school!!!!! education is very important im not trying to work at a nursing home forever!!!
March 26th, 2010 | #
If i would have received $50,000, i would definitly use it for books and my school tuition. Life just keeps getting expensive day by day. if any $ left from that scholarship i would buy i car to drive to school because is hard to keep asking for a ride to school everyday.
March 25th, 2010 | #
I’ve worked hard for the grades that I have and I simply view scholarships as a reward for the work that I’ve done. Not only to myself, but for my parents who are putting thousands of dollars into my education.
March 25th, 2010 | #
I’ve worked hard for the grades that I have, and if I win a scholarship, I know my parents will not have to be concerned about what they have to do in order to afford my tuition. It will be a way in order to repay them for the time and money they have put into putting me through school.
March 25th, 2010 | #
This has made me think in a whole new way.
March 25th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would pay my parents back for all of the money that they are put towards my college. I would also set aside some money for a house that I will eventually buy. If there’s any left I would give my brother some money for colleg also.
March 25th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my tution and everything I need for college
March 25th, 2010 | #
I would finish my graduate work and teach at a community college, helping to provide open access to a high quality of education.
March 25th, 2010 | #
I would be able to afford graduate school and get the training I need and have worked so hard for.
March 25th, 2010 | #
With 50,000 I would be able to focus on school and my wife could work just one job to keep us afloat. I have just left the military with 22 years and there is not alot of work in the field I was in. I am currently trying to get a AS degree in nursing. With the money I would get work on a BS in Nursing. I have picked Nursing for the simple reason that I have spent my whole life training to hurt and would like to spend the rest of it helping those who are sick.
March 25th, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 scholarship would be amazing, I would be able to afford Graduate school, be able to focus on my classes, and still be able to put in the volunteer time to help me complete my graduate requirements.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would be able to afford what I have wanted to do for years. I want to become a registered nurse and it is ridiculously expensive to be able to do it. I want to be able to help people and do as much as I can to do that. I could really use the money, I am just starting college and want to get all my pre reqs out of the way before getting there. College costs a lot of money and I could really use the help.
March 24th, 2010 | #
My scholarship money would go toward my tutition, books,and to continue my education debt free as well as stress free. With any money left over going toward my sons future college education.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 in scholarships, I would be able to be worry free for the remainder of my undergraduate career. My family would be able to pay off the house more easily (which they have already mortgaged twice) and I would be able to continue my education guilt free. I would then be able to work in social justice without feeling stressed and trying to find a high paying job in order to pay back my school loans and parents.
March 24th, 2010 | #
I belief in education and education costs lot of money. I have worked very hard on my current degree program to get a good grade that I have. The $ 50,000 scholarship sweepstake helps me cover my book expense, living expense and most of all my tuitions, which is the largest amount of payment of all, if I were to win this sweepstake it will be the life line of my success toward my education.
March 24th, 2010 | #
A scholarship would help my education greatly.I am a mom of four who is trying to go to school full time and I have to depend on their dad for more than his share so I can get this done.Any kind of help at this point would be greatly appreciated.
March 24th, 2010 | #
Winning a scholarship will help me so much. I wouldn’t have to work so much and I’d have more time to focus on my studies, ultimately helping me achieve my degree in Nursing.
March 24th, 2010 | #
I would be able to afford many of the small liberal arts colleges that i am hoping to attend and I would be able to pay for graduate school.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will put it towards my tuition for graduate school. It would be nice to not have to pay off loans and have my parents worry about financial aid. I applied to many expensive private schools and a 50,000 scholarship would help me for my future.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarhip, I would worry less about the financial struggle college brings, and focus more on the experience of college. I am a pre law student, and law school can be very expensive, so any financial help is worth trying to get! I hope this works out!
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I won it would make my day! I could complete my education without resorting to student loans.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I were so blessed to win a $50,000 scholarship, I would invest the money toward my education. The scholarship would cover the two years worth of tuition left to obtain my bachelor’s degree, as well as three years of Physical Therapy school. By using this money as well as financial aid I would have avoid joining the millions of Americans in debt. If I were to have excess money, I would accredit the rest of the money to pay for mission trips that could use my physical therapy career.
March 24th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a scholarship it would put less a financial burden on my family. I would be able to repay back my student loans.
March 24th, 2010 | #

March 24th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship it will pay for the rest of my college tuition and I would be able to go to medical school to pursue my dream of being in psychiatry.
March 24th, 2010 | #
I been working since my sophmore year of high school to pay for everything that I need. Since my mom is single is hard for her to pay for everything. Now that im in college, everything our situation is getting harder. If I win 50,000 I would finish almost for all my studies at George Mason University. I would also get a laptop, which im saving money for now. I want to be successful in life and help my mom , so she dont have to worry about working.
March 24th, 2010 | #

iF I GOT THIS MONEY I WOULD PAY FOR MY OWN COLLEGE AND THEN PUT THE REST IN SAVINGS, OR BUY A CAR.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
Winning a $50,000 scholarship would help me in so many ways and not to mention relieve a huge weight of stress. I need to get into school! But i haven’t been able to start because money is really tight! My mother just filed bankruppcy. My family lives on food stamps and WIC of the kids. We are all living under one income. I need a job desperately so that i can get a car that way i can drive myself to school. But i can’t do that because i don’t have money to get a car! And my family has only one car which my step dad takes to work. I live in the middle of nowhere so non of my friends are willing to pick me up and take me home. With $50,000 i would get a car, my own apartment right next to the University i plan on attending, and use the rest of the money for school! Oh the miricle the Lord would dawn on me if i won $50,000!
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship I would stop worrying about how much debt I am going to be in for going to my dream school. I would never forget the generosity and I would make sure to give back to students later on when I have a stable career.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000 scholarship I would put this towards paying for college tuition. I’m so excited to be starting the next step of my life! As a high school senior I am ready to move on and see what the world holds for me. Starting off in debt will make things difficult so this would beneficial for me to start using the money to pay off college tuition.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
$50,000? That just sounds like a miracle!!! If i were t win that i would pay for my college first. Then i would help my family as much as i could. I am the oldest of 7 by 11 years and Lord knows we need some help! God has been good though!
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 I would first use it to pay for my college fees, then give some of it to my parents to help them pay for their house, give a portion of it for offering at my church, and save the rest!
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I had 50,000 dollar scholarship, I’d pay off my schooling and put some of it in the bank.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
I am an 18 year old male from New Prague MN. I’m praying for this scholarship I have to deal with so much crap my entire life this would be a god send. I would be able to pay for my 30k college tuition at UTI where i am going to be studying to be a master technician. my family is in bankruptcy so scholarships is the only way i am able to pay for my tuition. I know i’m not the best and brightest person around, but i’d would be really thankfull for this scholarship, It would help my life so much
March 23rd, 2010 | #
Winning $50,000 would be the best thing that can happen to me at this moment because I honestly do not have financial aid to pay for college. I really want to complete my education and I am willing to keep reaching for my goal of completing it.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I won, I’d be able to repay all the hard work my mother put in for paying for my college and loan costs. I’d finally be able to take a lot of stress and worry off her shoulders.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
50000 will help out alot with everything i want to accomplish in life.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
with all that money id just relax and concentrate in just school
March 23rd, 2010 | #
This definitely would give me a hope of at least being able to pay for some of the college education I would need for the next 4-6 years. This scholarship would not only give me hope but it definitely would give me a future for myself. And would allow me to pass on what I’ve learned in my own life. It is only by the power of scholarships like these that I have ANY hope of going to college.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I win, I would put it towards my tuition and stay on campus…also give some to my mother.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship I would be able to get married next year 2011 like we had planned. But since I can’t afford college right now because my parents make to much money and I my marital status on the FAFSA is single I will get very little financial aid. With this scholarship I can finally become independent, pay for college, and be able to get married. This would be a wonderful blessing and would be greatly appreciated.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
50K would definitely allow me to pay for college. It is so hard to be responsible and work and try to get grants. It doesn’t happen for the hard working just the ones that dont make any money.
March 23rd, 2010 | #
I would pay off the debt of my first year, and pay for the next four years of school and if there is left over, consider grad school?
March 22nd, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 in scholarships I wouldn’t have any doubts on whether or not I could continue going to college. Money is tight now and my dad and loans is practically whats keeping me in school right now, but I don’t know how long that would last and I would love to continue going to school to do what I love, and that is draw. I would also use that money to be able to get the materials I need for school/career, and to help out with living expenses since I’m studying out of state.
March 22nd, 2010 | #
If i won $50,000, I would use it to pay for my college.

Wow, a $50,000 scholarship would completely remove stress from my life for my first two years of college. And it would jump start my dream to pursue becoming a Veterinarain. I just got accepted to Colorado State University, and I’ve been working my whole life hard so that I could get into this college. I’ll be the first child in my family to attend college, and all I want to do is prove myself and make them proud. To receive this scholarship would not only be an honor, but a genuine dream come true. The fact this opportunity to follow my dreams and have high hopes exists within this scholarship is amazing, and keeps me hoping everyday.
March 21st, 2010 | #
If I win a $50,000 scholarship I would be able to pay off my student loans for my associates degree in Healthcare Administration. In which I will have completed this October. It would be a major relief though instead of worrying about the length of time it will take to pay all of it off plus find a reliable job, especially when I am trying to better my life, for me and my family, after having brain surgery to cure my epilepsy.
March 21st, 2010 | #

March 21st, 2010 | #

March 21st, 2010 | #
Honestly, i hope this is not a scam. If i have 50K, I would study nonstop everyday, i would not need to borrow million of cash from the bank and i would never be in debt
March 21st, 2010 | #
I’ve worked my entire adult life, (supporting myself and my son) without a college degree. Working without a college degree limits your options; the position you can apply for, the industry choices, work-culture selection and greatly diminishes your earning capacity.
The jobs I’m qualified to apply for, just depress me. I’ve become aware of financial aid, however, since I’m going after an art education, I must be able to afford art supplies and equipment, and have the time to complete general education and development an art portfolio.
Even though, I consider getting a college degree a worthwhile investment, I’m not interested in getting into debt. A $50,000 scholarship would solve the challenge of juggling costs and having the time to work on my art and get the general education too.
It has been my lifelong dream to go to college
March 21st, 2010 | #
if i win a scholarship, i wll go to college and take different nursing courses that are offered at the school i choose to attend. i would get me a laptop to do my work and get me a car to get to school. i voulnteered at Tripler Medical Center for about 60 hours last year and this year. i would apply for a job there. i would continue taking college clases as long as i have the money for it.
March 20th, 2010 | #
I am already returning to school. I have no money, no job and with this economy, finding a job in my area is proving to be nearly impossible. If I won a scholarship, I would be able to further my knowledge and expand into a similar field but more stable for me and my family. I do not want to bounce around in the unknown any longer.
March 20th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship then it will help my mother and me greatly, since she is a single mother returning to college. My younger brother will also be attending college within the next few years. It would be a blessing if I could graduate college without any financial debt. My sister is still struggling to pay off hers, and I would rather not go through the same situation.
March 20th, 2010 | #
If I win this $50K scholarship without a doubt I would pay for my education. Finding financial aid is extremely hard, there is not one stop shop! This scholarship will relieve alot of pressure off of my parents who is paying for my college education.
March 20th, 2010 | #

March 19th, 2010 | #
I have been working towards a BA in Early Childhood education since that Fall of 2007. I am currently enrolled in a program at Temple University with the hopes of graduating between December 2011 and May 2012. However, my family cannot support me financially and even my financial aid isn’t enough to cover everything if I ever want to be debt free. I considered taking a break from school, but that’s not possible seeing as they are re-doing the entire education major. If I do not graduate before May 2012 then everything I’ve worked towards vanishes and I pretty much have to start all over. A $50,00 would bring me so much relief and lift a heavy financial burden from my family.
March 19th, 2010 | #
If I ever did win this $50k Scholarship, I would Use it to attend the 2yr Online Degree to earn My Internet Marketing Bachelors Degree at Fullsail for the 2010 Summer or Fall/Winter semester Where I can get my degree for 2yrs at $30K+ and then The remainder I would use for school to make sure to complete the course on time!
March 19th, 2010 | #

March 19th, 2010 | #

I would pay for my first year of grad school at Palo Alto University since I have NO MONEY to go there, even though this is the only school I got into.
March 18th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship it would give me such motivation to keep pushing through school. I would no longer feel guilty about my parents paying the pricey out of state tuition for me to attend a college with a superior music program. It would give me a chance to relax and enjoy being at school instead of stressing over monetary issues.
March 18th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my college tuition. I would then move to South Carolina, find a job there, and live the life right on the beach.
March 18th, 2010 | #
With 50,000 dollars i would broaden my education and most definatly take classes to be trilingual,including madrin chinese
March 18th, 2010 | #
If I got a scholarship, it doesnt have to be 50,000, it could be even a 5,000 one, I would be so happy. It would save me from payment for the extension course I want to take at the University of Riverside, CA. This course unfortunetly only offers loans granted by two types of banks, and I dont want to get loans from a bank. So a scholarship would really save me and my family’s from a financial burden. Thank you,
Daniela

I am currently a junior in a 4 year college and was recently accepted into pharmacy school. I have been paying for college on my own and the cost of grad school is alot to handle. My parents have three children in college and I wanted to do this on my own but now as I approach my goal in life, I feel as if its slipping away at the same time because of money and not because I am not qualified or because its too hard. I ahve worked hard my entire life to get where I am now and I am trying everything to keep my goal alive. This scholarship would mean so much to me and I just once want something for myself because any other time I would put my wants aside for another person. I feel like wanting something for myself once is not alot to ask but again it is. The economy is still recovering and it is very hard to find financial aid help for students who fall between the cracks but have done everything right.
March 18th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000 I would be able to pay for most of my college education, and would make my parents extremely proud. I’m majoring in Business, and want to take care of my parents in the future, although, it will be extremely hard with all these loans built up. Basically if I won this $50,000 it would make my parents proud of me for once.
March 18th, 2010 | #

I am 54 years old. i ama owner & director of a large center. I earned my A.A. in E.C.E. in 2008. I want to work towards a B.A. in E.C.E. very soon. I can only do the online classes as with the center and other training I have found it difficult to go on campus. Working on my A.A. I was more free with time inthe evening and enjoyed it.
the only thing holding me back is the cost. I am enrolling into Ashworth college on-line. That is where I recievd my A.A. degree and hope to succeed again. Thank you, Linda

If I were to win the fifty thousand dollar scholarship I would happily pay for my future. I have been accepted to Texas A&M, but I can’t pay for it without taking out loans, so if I were to win I wouldn’t have to rely upon future debt in order to fulfill my dreams.
March 18th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000, I would do what most people would do, Pay for a whole year and then use the rest for my Sallie Mae loans. It would help Take out a big chunk of the massive bill I’m going to face sometime in the future.

If I would win a 50,000 dollar scholarship I would be able to take care of my two children and not have to worry about paying for College. See I went to college before and now i’m paying back student loans plus starting again in the fall. I will be doing all this plus taking care of my two children and stepson. A scholarship like that would be a blessing and a great help to not only me but my family.

If I won a scholarship for $50,000 I would have half of my first four years of schooling paid for so that by the time medical school comes around I will have money that I wouldnt have had if I didnt receive that scholarship. If I am able to afford it, I will be the first person in my entire family to become a surgeon or even someone in the medical area that has higher qualifications than a nurse.
March 17th, 2010 | #
If i had that scholarship money i would follow my goal, be somebody in life. I would go to college right after i get out of high school.
March 17th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will be able to buy myself a laptop since most of my classes are computer based. And a laptop is fairly expensive. Also, the money would help me lease a car since my school is at least 15 miles from my home and I have a bad car.
March 17th, 2010 | #
I win a scholarship I would first give part of it to the poor and then pay my loan and go visit my parents overseas.

March 17th, 2010 | #
If I were to win this scholarship most of my financial worries will be gone. I can finally go to college off island and get a dregree in the field that I am passionate about. I could pay for most of my education now and lighten my parents burden. I could even use this money to help finance my sister’s education when she graduates this year from high school. I could work part time yet still manage to go to college because I do not have worry that much about money anymore.

I am a 29 yr old single mother of 4 yr old girl. I remember crying in the bathroom when I found out I was pregnant at age 25, I remember the word “school” and “future” were chasing one after another so rapidly the first 30 mnts… then I tried to ignore those words until every time I think I see an opportunity… that thought comes in mind again… I fully supported myself going to college for 2 yrs before I had become a mother. I have been pessimistic about being able to go back to school because I have to be responsible for my daughter’s everyday needs since I don’t get child support and have no relatives at all in the US. There’s only me and my daughter in this country. I went back working in the restaurant business after I gave birth. I wet back to school in 2008. I took 2 classes, Accounting and Macro-Economics. I had to pay for a babysitter to go to my evening classes since I had work in the daytime. It was very hard. I had to work full time and be a full time mother.
If I had a $50,000 scholarship, I would go back to school, get a degree in Photography with the hope that my future will stop haunting me. It would not only make my everyday life more enjoyable with the progress I’d be making towards my future, but it would also give me a sense of happiness in life knowing that I would be able to fund my daughter’s future educational plan with the money I would make from the job I could get if I finished my school.

March 17th, 2010 | #
If I am fortunate to win a scholarship for 50K, then I would surely use those scholarship to finance my further studying in college. Also, it would finance my foreign internship planning and study abroad program also. If I can cut some money, then I would use it for my parents.
March 17th, 2010 | #
50,000… I would probably be in shock. My whole life I grew up not having anything and now my life has start in college. I am doing everything on my own. My mom cannot help me or my siblings can’t.My Dad is homeless right now so for me college is the way for me. I want to be able to help them and with this 50,000 dollars would push me further. I am not asking you to feel bad or sorry for me. I just want the help and support that I really need and this money can change my life especially with school.
March 17th, 2010 | #
If I win any scholarships, it would all go to my tuition for school. I’m attending the University of California Irvine, and paying an out of state tuition because I’m originally from Hawaii. I thought attending a UC school would help me academically in the future for my dream career, however, like everyone else, I’m having financial problems. Especially being an out-of-state student and the UC tuitions rising, I really need scholarships to cover my loans and it would lessen my burdens to help me concentrate more in school.
March 17th, 2010 | #
To win a $50,000 scholarship would be a dream come true. I would use it to pay for my tuition for the first year and some more.

March 17th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would be so relieved! I have always had a desire to become a registered nurse because it is a profession that I can be of service to others all the time. Knowing that all of my college education is paid for would lift a huge weight off of my shoulders.

March 16th, 2010 | #

March 16th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a 50,000 scholarship I would pay any debt I have for attending school and buy myself a car to get to college. I wouldn’t get anything fancy, just something decent. I would also pay back my older brother for the money he has lent me throughout my college years. I need 5 more classes to graduate with a my degree in Applied Science and about 1 1/2 for my bachelor’s in nursing.
March 16th, 2010 | #

March 16th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I start screaming until my face turns purple. It would do wonders towards my degree in diagnostic medical sonography. I feel bad for my parents having to pay for college since they are dairy farmers money isn’t really so flexible for them. Even a $1,000 scholarship would help out.
March 16th, 2010 | #
On a personal note, money is the biggest obstacle to receiving an education. Many of us are familiar with the big expenses of a college degree. I find my family and I stuck in the middle; we are not rich, nor do we qualify for financial aide. I sacrificed staying instate for a university and now with budget cuts I find myself with nowhere to turn but loans. With a 50K scholarship, I would not only sleep sound at night, but also be able to give back to my community after earning a degree.
March 16th, 2010 | #
With a $50k scholarship I would be able to attend college without any worries. We are living on my mother’s paycheck –which is less than what a manager at McDonald’s makes and she’s in the education field. Fifty thousand would provide me the great opportunity of furthering my education.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I won 5k for scholarships that would give me the perfect start to my future job as a Clinical Psychologist! I would be so happy to win and finally know that I could afford the education I need to become the profession that I wanted. I would be so happy to win this scholarship it would be crazy.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I were to receive this scholarship, not only would I put it to good use towards my 8 years of schooling, but it would help me to better the world as a whole by becoming a dentist and assisting those less-fortunate with health care.
March 16th, 2010 | #
I wish I could change the world with $50K, but the truth is I’d probably use it to pay for most of my college tuition. Hopefully one thing could and would be consequence of another.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I would win the scholarship, I would continue my education to medical school. I am determined to make it to medical school because I want to make a difference in the world.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 I would use it to pay for my undergraduate degree in geology. That would include my tuition, books, room and board. This would help greatly in funding my education because I will be in school for around ten years in order to obtain my PhD for paleontology.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I won a big scholarship like the 50,000 dollar one; I would further my education by becoming a forensic accountant. I would help police detect fraudulent activities.

March 16th, 2010 | #

March 16th, 2010 | #
If I were the one to recieve the $50k It would not only help me to finnish this term but also would alow me to start on my batchlor degree.I realy want to recieve my masters, but being a single father doesnt alow me to financialy afford to do that, thats why this would be the greatest oppertunity of my life to recieve this award.
March 16th, 2010 | #
I will use it to finance my education in college.
March 16th, 2010 | #
I just need it for college I don’t know exactly what I want to be yet but college is expensive and I cant afford it I’m just going to college right now to learn more because I’m not good at math or English. It’s hard to support your self and go to college. I graduated high school last year as a Special ED student and it feels weird in college because people are a lot smarter than me but it’s my dream. I might not need it the most or I might not have done a lot to deserve it but it would help a lot.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I were to win the $50k scholarship, it would put me one step closer to being able to attend the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. I want to go to this college because I want to study fashion design. This college is, however, a private college, and also a college which I will have to live on campus to attend, which means that it will cost significantly more than if I were to attend a community college, or even some state universities. As it stands right now, I am planning on going to school for 6 years so that I can get my general class credits from the local community college, and then attend the art institute, this way, college will not completely break my family’s finances. $50,000 would help make it so that I didn’t have to attend college for an entire 6 years, but even if I am in college for 6 years, I will be thankful to be able to eventually do what I love!
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship I would help my financially troubled separated mother who has very little money in her bank. My sister is going into graduate school and I’m going to be a sophomore in an art college. My mother helped me so much to become the person I am today and I would pay her back with this scholarship and I would use the rest for my tuition for an art college in Savannah,Georgia and hopefully I wouldn’t have to use loans.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If i received a $50,000 I could complete my bachelors in Business Management and then go on to get my Master Degree in business and also help launch my business plan during my school sessions!!!! I am currently looking for more scholarship to just help fund my first year and a half of this business accelerated program at College of Saint Mary!
March 16th, 2010 | #
With so much money i’d be able to pay off all of my tuition and not have to worry about my increasing loans; i’d also be able to get a decent car. I work part-time but it feels like all of my money goes towards my car (repairs), insurance, and book buying; with barely any money leftover, so paying off my tuition every month is practically impossible. With the leftover money that I didn’t use, I’d donate it to my favorite non-profit organization in my local area. God bless!
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I was to win this scholarship I will pay off my tuition to continue to further my education and pay off my loans.
March 16th, 2010 | #

March 16th, 2010 | #
I know the school I want to attend…it’s just in sight but wow this would take such a burden off my shoulders because I can’t afford the education I really want. If I win this it would mean the world to me!
March 16th, 2010 | #
I would go to school full time without taking out loans.
March 16th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship, I would recommend this same scholarship to my sister and many of my friends as proof that there are scholarships out there that do not care if you are not a minority, bankrupt or on welfare receiving food stamps, no special talents or achievements. It’s not about who you are and what you have achieved so far, it’s what you can achieve and who you will be if we are able to attend college like everyone else. So what would I do? Go to school, be the best I can in my Biology major to study plants and help feed the world healthy thriving produce, which is what many people lack in their diet! I would jump start my career stress free of debt and maybe have left over money to invest in my career.
March 15th, 2010 | #
50,000 dollars would be life-changing for me. With that scholarship, I could attend the college of my choice, get my business degree and later open my own photography studio. I have worked hard the past 4 years to earn a 4.0 GPA, but because of the recent economic situation, I have not received any scholarships that I have applied for. I could really use this money and would definitely make a difference with what I learn.
March 15th, 2010 | #
I am a middle-aged displaced worker (laid-off for over a year) in need of a new career. All the programs that are supposed to help people like me are either overloaded or otherwise leave me out. I have always wanted to be in a natural healing field and am trying to put together funding to take massage therapy and live while I’m doing so. A $50,000 scholarship would allow me to pay the tuition and supplies, fend off the creditors and help pay my living expenses while I study and become certified. That would make an enormous difference in my life and others.
March 15th, 2010 | #
If i win the $50,000 scholarship i will continue my education and be stress free knowing that i will be able to pay for my college since i dont qualify for financial aide.

March 15th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will continue my education, and I will be graduated by with successfully. Being graduated by my field of interest, I will be the one of the the professionals who are trying to change the world. I am interested in participating in music field of study and health science. However, I don’t know how I will do all that I want unless I get extra help from…. . Since my parents are in Ethiopia, Oromia, I couldn’t get basic help from them; either, they are waiting for my help. I will do what I mentioned above and other if I get this scholarship and every thing might be fine if…
March 15th, 2010 | #
If i would win 50,000 I would be so blesssed and so happy. My parents wouldn’t be so stressed about finding ways to pay for college since i don’t qualify for finacial aid. I would be able to finish my college education stress free.
March 15th, 2010 | #
If I could win this scholarship it would help me achieve my life goal of becoming a Clinical Psychologist, and I could do what I have always wanted to do which would be to help people.

March 15th, 2010 | #
It would be soo much help if I could win this scholarship! My mom is a single parent, and it would help us out soo much.
March 15th, 2010 | #
I would definitely use the money from the scholarship to pay off and existing balance I owe to the University I attend in order to take the last 3 classes I need to graduate.
March 15th, 2010 | #
If God helps me to win the $50,000, I can assure you it will help me finish my undergraduate studies which I have not even started. I have been sitting on a letter of admission to one of our leading private universities in Kenya. I hope to transform lives upon getting university education and may be perhaps assist others in a similar way.
Joseph, Kenya.
March 15th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I will use it to pay for the expensive out of state tuition at the school i’m going to in the state i just moved to. If I did have any money left over after tuition books and room and board for the 3 years I will be attending this school I would really love to buy myself a nice laptop. I have worked 2 jobs for almost 3 years now just to pay for my first year of school and the small laptop I have now. I just moved 1700 miles from home to go to school and would love the help paying for school. If I could graduate from school with no debt, that would make me very happy.
March 15th, 2010 | #
Since I am going to school to be a teacher and promoter of education, I would more than appreciate someone who supports education as I do, and would grant me such a wonderful gift, would be more than what words could describe. I would put that money towards getting a post-grad degree in education and either teach English abroad or teach in the states for the hearing impaired. I would also like to double major in the earth sciences to further our understanding of a fast changing unyeilding world.
March 15th, 2010 | #
I’d use the money to spend on undergraduate education.
March 15th, 2010 | #
If I would be chosen to win the $50,000 scholarship I would be blessed. With my education expenses starting at almost $400 per credit and 60 credits to earen only my associates degree online I need that kind of money. My 10-25 hour job isn’t going to do much for me and being debt free or low debt at the end of my education will definately be a start. Of course my degree will not make me a millionaire but it will sure make me more than minimum wage. I can definately use that money, because being able to attend school financially stable will no doubt be key in finishing my educaiton, and raising a family. Setting the example for my daughter is my main priority to earn my college education and I would make my fiance, family proud. Thanks for the encouragement of attending college and obtaining a college education. Much respect.
March 14th, 2010 | #
With fifty-thousand dollars, I could pay all of my college fees with much left over. The remainder of the money would probably be used to help fund any additional education I would like to have and also allow me to pay for many other necessities.
March 14th, 2010 | #
I would use this money to pay my students loans and help with living expenses next school year.
March 14th, 2010 | #
If I received a $50,000 scholarship, the first thing I would do is stick my head out the window and scream to the world that I actually got a scholarship. After that little episode, I would divide the money up for the years I am going to college. A $50,000 scholarship would be a blessing for me right now- a $100 dollar scholarship would be great!
March 14th, 2010 | #
use it to play for college.
March 14th, 2010 | #

March 14th, 2010 | #
NEED IT BAD!
March 14th, 2010 | #
Being a single mother w/ a full time job, I would pay a few semesters ahead and put the money in the bank for books, materials and future classes. Paying for school is a lot harder than I thought it would be; just trying to figure out where the money will come from is most of the headache.
March 14th, 2010 | #
If I were giving $50,000, I would use it for college. With tuition & other fees, it will make things alot easier for myself. Since the average cost at my school is 20,000 A year, I will be able to attend college for 5 semesters hassel free. This can be a major stress release.
March 14th, 2010 | #
This would pay for my two years of private nursing school! Amazsing
March 13th, 2010 | #
This will pay for almost the entire cost of private nursing school! Amazing dream…
March 13th, 2010 | #
I will use it towards my dissertation to improve education achievement gap in inner-city schools.
March 13th, 2010 | #
I would use it for my school’s tuition. I have the grades, but money is often a problem. $50,000 would be amazing!
March 13th, 2010 | #

March 13th, 2010 | #
Wow!!! What an answered prayer it would be if I received this 50k scholarship! I am the first of my family to go to college. We were unaware of the tuition fees, expenses, the cost of living, and everyday necessities that seem to grow more each day. I would be more than thankful for the relief this scholarship would bring to continue in the ventures to become the first of my family to graduate college and continue my dream to become a dentist. Thanks.
March 13th, 2010 | #
With 50K I can accomplish so much. I would be able to pay for my college with it and have no debt. I would be able to save money that I do not have. My parents abandoned me at age eighteen so the money would come in handy in so many ways. Since I support myself and pay all my own bills there will always be something the money can go towards but mostly my education. I love school and learning. I am graduating with three associates degrees in May and next fall I am transferring to a four yr university to study speech therapy! Where there is a will, theres a way.
March 13th, 2010 | #
If i were to win this scholarship, it would be completely life altering. I would use the money to pay for my entire 4 year tuition, as well as use the remaining money to aid my mother in family finances while i’m gone overseas for 2 years.
March 13th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000 scholarship, I would pay off all my current student loans and finish my 4th year of psychology to get my BS and move on towards my Master’s in Psychology. I’m a single mom of two kiddos, 14 and 2. I’ve been trying to finish my degree for over 15 years and still am a year away. I don’t qualify for grants or federal aid, so most schooling has been dependent on student loans and the rare scholarship opportunity. I can’t take another class until I fork out $1600 out of pocket. Hoping so much to win a scholarship soon, so that I can continue!
March 13th, 2010 | #
I would definitely pay off all my loans for college. Awesome!!! I would be debt free for a change.
March 13th, 2010 | #
If I were to win $50,000, I would feel as though providing for my son would no longer worry me while my wife and I try to make it through college. Reliable transportation would no longer be a worry, and eating the cheapest of foods, as well as the least nutritional, would be a thing of the past. Even thought winning that kind of money is apparent to me that it will never happen, it is nice to day dream about it for a while as i write this message and escape all the stress for 5 mins…… College isn’t like the movies.
March 13th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I will pay 1 year of my school and quit my job of waitress to dedicate all my free time to study. My dream is to graduate with 4.0 GPA and get an MBA at a good university. Thank you

That would cover an entire year for me. That would be amazing and I would actually be able to take a full load for once!

If I were to win this scholarship for $50,000, I’d pretty much be set with my finances to be finally enroll. Where I am currently at financially, I have been stalling to enroll. I could really use this scholarship, as everyone else, because I am a single mother and I am going to school for her not me. I would love for my daughter to be able to look up to me and be proud of me for everything I’ve done for her. If i were to have any extra money left over, I would put some of it in my daughters savings and pay off some of my bills, if not all.

IF I WOULD WIN A SCHOLARSHIP FOR 50,000…WOW THAT WOULD BE MORE THAN AWESOME!!! I WOULD BUY MY 1ST CAR SO I CAN HAVE SOMETHING TO GO TO COLLEGE WITH… I WOULD ALSO TRY TO FINISH MY TEACHING CAREER IN SCIECE AS FAST AS I CAN… SO I CAN HAVE A VERY GOOD JOB.. AND BE ABLE TO HELP MY MOM WITH MONEY AND BUY HER, HER 1ST HOUSE..

This is just enough for me to pay one year of dental school and what a LOAD that will take off my shoulders in terms of debt after school. If only.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I win the scholarship, I would pay off my tuition loans and the rest of the bills and be debt free.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship I would most definitely use it for my nursing career. I am a single mother with two children. I have a 1 year old and a three year. I work full time with Kelsey-Seybold clinic and attend classes at night. I just want the best for my children when they grow up and I know continuing education is the only way to take me and my children there. I hope to win so that I can get into nursing school.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I am a graduating senior and am uncertain if I am financially capable of attending a University. One thing I am certain of is that I will make my dreams come true. I am hard working and a dedicated student and eager to start this new chapter of my life. I know what I want and I know what I must do to get it. I am focus and ambitious. My GPA is 3.0. I know winning this scholarship would open doors that would otherwise be shut until I could earn the finances I need to fulfill my dreams. My Father is disabled and my mother is the only person working in my family. I know I will get an education. It?s just that with this scholarship I can do it now. My life is just beginning. A $50,000.00 scolarship will definitely open the doors that will allow me to be able to start a journey that will allow me to succeed.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I would pay all of my tuition than get an apartment of my own
March 12th, 2010 | #
With 50,000 I would pay all of my tuition than I would find an apartment of my own so I wont have to live with others.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I would pay for my next semester and a half at University of New England because if I don’t figure something out, I won’t be able to go back.
March 12th, 2010 | #
In receiving a $50,000 scholarship, I would actively work to get a two Ph.Ds in Psychology and in Pharmacy in order to pursue my career goals in youth psychology study as well as a pharmacist so that I will be doing the things that I love to do and have the ablilty to help many people personally.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I know i’m not a single mother with young children trying to balance a career, work, and taking care of the household, and i probably wouldn’t need the 50,000 as much as alot of people commenting, but i can tell you what i am, what i am is a student that if won, would pay for all outstanding bills, all lab/bookfee’s, and could pay for my father to actually have the proper Diabetes care that he should have.
So no, i may not desperately need it, but it would definitely go a long way.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I won that much money from this scholarship, I’d definently take care of my schooling. The tuition for the school I want to attend is massive. My parents already have trouble with the rent and the school is in Florida. To add on to that, I’d have to pay rent due to the fact that there is no housing on the campus. It would be the biggest help in my life. I can’t find a job and I really want to go to school.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I was raised with just enough to get by. My family never had much money for extra-curricular activities or even simply just year books. It was hard growing up and not getting to do things a lot of other kids were doing, but in the end that has made me strive harder for the things I deserve and want. My parents both still make only enough money to pay for mainly their needs; therefore, proving I will have zero family contribution for college. I will do whatever it takes to get to where I want to go and to work for things I need and want to obtain but being selected for this fifty thousand dollar scholarship would make my dreams come true in a more financially stable way. By having this scholarship i would be able to pay for all of my schooling and books as well as pay for costs of living on my own. This money would be more than a gift for me it would be an absolute blessing for me. Education is very important to me and I believe having this money will help me to accomplish my life long goal of becoming a labor and delivery registered nurse as well as double majoring and becoming a midwife!
I hope that i will be taken in consideration and do thank you for your time!
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship I would use it for school. This way I could use any extra money to help support my parents and my sister, who will be attending college in 2011. My mom is also in school working on her doctrate.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I would use the scholarship to pay for tuition, books, and living expenses to complete my education in the technology field I have chosen. This education would allow me to work and live with my husband after living apart for 1-1/2 years as he was forced (due to the economy) to work outside of our home state.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I received the 50,000 dollars, I would use part of it coupled with student loans to pay for my tuition this year, and use the other half to help my mom pay for her diabetes medications and heart surgery.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I’m international student and wining a U.S scholarship will be one of the greatest thing I’ve ever thought of. Joining the American education has been a dream of mine and I have worked so hard for it. If I win a 50,000 scholarship, I will use that amount to pursue a bachelor degree at a U.S university. That amount of money will ease all the difficulties I’ve met. My country is not a rich one, therefore affording U.S education can be considered impossible in my parents’ mind. But I believe I can do it, I can make my dream come true.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship of any sort, I would do the following, in order of priority:
1- pay off my college loans
2- pay for what my loans and grants do not cover for my last three semesters of undergrad
3- pay my grandparents back for helping me pay for the first two years of college
4- get my license and use some of the money to help pay for insurance so that I could get a job close to school that I could drive to (I love walking, but it is dangerous to do so at night where I live)
5- put most of what is left over in a savings account to have for emergencies for the remainder of college (emergencies, for me, would be books, groceries, or doctor/ dentist bills)
6- use whatever is left to help pay for rent when I am out of college while I look for a job or when I begin graduate school.
March 12th, 2010 | #
I’m a single mother of five daughters so if I won $50,000 I would pay my tuition for the remaining years of school and pay the bills with the rest.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I could win a scholarship, I would pay all my levies in the college including my tuition fees and as well get some materials that can aid my better performance in the college.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, I will get a new laptop computer that will enhance my better performance in the college, I will also pay all of my levies and tuition fees completely
March 12th, 2010 | #
I would definitely use it to pay for my tuition & fee during my last two year at undergraduate level. I will save some for my graduate school too.
March 12th, 2010 | #
To win would direct me towards the education I need to earn a masters.
March 12th, 2010 | #
If I receive a scholarship I will be able to go to college and receive a degree and be able to start a career
March 12th, 2010 | #
As i read through the stories others have posted i wish we all could have help. I am certain that we all need it, and we all know how hard it is to leave high school and start a new life. A new place, new people and a new enviroment not to mention new financial problems. Thats exactly what i did. I left my home which consisted of 9 of us including my mother and father. The word low income doesnt do justice. My parents income combined is that of one person working in a factory. I am not ashamed of not being well off but it does fail to pay for the education I need to better my life and to give my future family more than i received growing up. I thought college was the answer so i left my home, family, and friends and started college. As if financial matters werent enough of a burden my freshman year my roomate was murdered. I found her after class and the word college freshman took om a whole new meaning. College is not only a learning enviroment but also a olace to change, a place to grow. Not a place to find your friend, roomate…. murdered. It has changed my life and now my obligation is going to college online. Online college is alot more expensive unfortunatly. This is why i am trying to find ways to still continue college even after a terrible tragedy as this. I found a way to feel safe and continue my education. Now i have to find ways of paying for it when grants only go so far and student loans have to be payed back. I would feel like something finally payed off, went right in my life if i won a scholarship! Thank you.
March 12th, 2010 | #
i would use it to pay for school and books because it is very expensive. I would want to help out my parents because they are struggling to keep me at the school that i am attending now.
March 11th, 2010 | #
I would pay off my school loans. and start a non profit helping refugees. I would donate a bunch of the money.
March 11th, 2010 | #
Never had a dream school until this year. Bucknell University and it’s beautiful but I’m afraid my Cal Grants won’t be able to help me if I go there. Plus, I missed the financial aid that I didn’t even know existed. If I won this scholarship, it would really help me to follow my dreams and go far away to study. This money would not only help my education, but as well as letting me travel and be far away so I can appreciate what I have here at home.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I were to win the $50,000 scholarship it would be a great blessing in my life. I am enrolled in a two year Nursing Program. The total cost of the program is over $40,000. I will use this scholarship to pay for my tuition and other fees, so, when I graduate I won’t have any debt. I can’t get any help from federal pell grants and I can’t get any student loans because of my poor credit. I have always wanted to be a nurse. I need to get done with my schooling so that I can start a family. I hope you will consider me for this $50,000 scholarship. It would help me in so many ways.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000, I would use it to pay off all my student loans. If there was anything left over, I’d most likely give some to my niece to help her with her studies too, and my nephew, if he is going to college.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I won the 50K scholarship I would have the opportunity of a lifetime and I would make my Mom very proud.She has always wanted me to graduate college,she was diagnosed with lung cancer 2 years ago therefore I know she would help me if she was able.I’m handicapped and trying to live on disability is not enough.I have two boys and I am determined to achieve more.I have always been hard working at anything that I try to achieve.I can’t afford to pay my tuition but that’s not going to stand in my way like my mom always says where there’s a will there’s a way and God works in mysterious ways.
March 11th, 2010 | #
Did you just said $50,000. With that amount i will go further in to my educaton through the middle of medical school with no extra need for money. because i know how to live with the less i got,to save money.this money would be a life savior ,and also the door of opportunity
March 11th, 2010 | #
The sum of $50,000 would help out tremendously with tuition for college, books, and campus housing. Living in Louisiana has the perk of TOPS, but TOPS doesn’t cover much. It covers some tuition at, some, in state schools for 8 semesters. It doesn’t cover housing fees, book fees, or any other kind of fees you have to pay as a college student. $50,000 could help alleviate the amount of students needed to pay for books, housing and continuing education after undergraduate degrees, which is something I would love to be able to do. I plan to continue my education after undergraduate school and could use $5o,ooo to eliminate or lower student loans.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I won $50,000, I could pay for my education in full & focus on studying.
March 11th, 2010 | #
I will be so HAPPY!!! This scholarship will help me to finish my school. Education is something that nobody can take away from you!
March 11th, 2010 | #
Well this is a scolarship, so I would use it strictly for tuiton. I’m enrolled already for a two year program and that is going to cost roughly $30,000. I would like to continue after that two years, which will cost even more than that. When you look at the true cost of tuition $50,000 does’t even cover a full 6 year degree. I am a single mother of three and trying to better myself for all our sakes
March 11th, 2010 | #
With $50,000 I would first put some back for my child in case of emergencies. I would use the rest for my first year in college such as books, tuition, room and board and other things needed for college.
March 11th, 2010 | #
i would help my granny with her bills, help my dad get back on his feet, and whatever else my family would need help with. then i would use the rest for college and a driveable vehicle to go to college in.
March 11th, 2010 | #
I would like to finish my paralegal degree and pay off my existing 9000 debt.
March 11th, 2010 | #
Definitely tuition, and if I have any money left over room and board. I’m currently applying to univerisities and let’s just say my top choice is not cheap! Scholarships are a blessing and it’s sites like these that can inspire any student!
March 11th, 2010 | #
With this type of money I would be able to quit my full-time job to become a full-time student. I would be able to transfer to a university and further my education to become a psychologist.

I am a single mother of three and trying to better myself for all our sakes. I have never made more than $15,000 a year. I have jumped into school with all my heart, and paying for my tuition is scary. Right now I’m struggling to just get enough money to pay for the books I need. I know that with a good education, I can and will move mountains. I sincerely hope you will consider me for the scholarship. Thank-you for an opportunity to better myself.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I don’t get scholarships I will not be able to continue my education. I have high goals and that will require alot of school. I have 5 brothers and 1 sister, three of which are attending college right now and a fourth will be a senior this next fall. One of my brothers has had cancer 3 times now and a new tumor was recently found as well. I have no help paying for college at all. With a 50K I could pay for my college for the next 4 years and maybe be able to help my parents out with the medical bills for my brother.

Having lived in seven different countries, four different states, and traveled through numerous countries, I have developed a deep desire to work in socially and educationally impoverished third-world countries. My fiancée and I are seniors and have been accepted to a one year graduate program in the Humanities at the University of Chicago. Right now, the one thing standing in our way from receiving our degrees and beginning work in Tanzania where our connections are already formed, is the looming tuition expense of $40,000 for the Masters program on top of our $25,000 in loans from undergraduate.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I could win a $50,000 scholarship it would be the answer to all of my prayers. The past couple of years have been a struggle and I have to rely on loans from the government to pay for school. On top of that, I just was layed off from my job of five years. Now I have to take out larger loans to pay for everything. I’m majoring in forensics and I still have a few more years to go. I’m just really scared that when I finish, my loans are going to be really hard to handle. “Not finishing” is not an option though, I just take a deep breath and pray.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I would go to school, just as planned, and be able to pay for every bit of it without worrying. I am going to school to get my RN license, then getting my Bachelor’s in Nursing, and finally transferring to a 4-year university to become a Nurse Practicioner. I have a lot of goals and a $50,000 scholarship would help ensure that my goals are accomplished!
March 11th, 2010 | #
I would not have to worry about paying for the rest of my college career- this would mean so much to me
March 11th, 2010 | #
With $50,000, I would pay off all my student loans that has been accumulating all these years. Once all my student loans has been paid, I would purchase things that are not only a necessity but beneficial as well. I would leave the rest of the money in my checking account for future use.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If I won a scholarship of this magnitude, I would take a moment to give back to a community who are not as well off as me. I currently cannot attend school because I don’t have the means to do so but I know I can do so much good without school. I want to use this money to educate people on the needs to save and importance of preparing for college despite circumstances. My parents and I neglected to seek the knowledge and understanding thus were under prepared. I do not want anyone who wants an education as much as me to be in this situation and hopefully, within teaching others I will be getting myself an education too.
The best education anyone can have is to reflect on mistakes they’ve made and teach other people of them so they do not stumble where I’ve fell.
March 11th, 2010 | #
If i win a $50,000 scholarship, I will pay for my college fee in full. Make the best out of my life.Take responsibility of my little siblings and let them following my foot path. make my parents proud of me. I would like to attain a masters degree in computer programming.
March 11th, 2010 | #
For someone like myself, winning a scholarship is only a dream. Life for me has been about a long struggle to try and put myself through school. I am currently enrolled in college but with the current economic climate my future seems deem. When I was little I always dreamt that I would get myself through college simply because no one in my community had ever gone. Every day, I come to school I am thankful that I am the fortunate 1 out of every hundred youths out there in America who is able to come to school. That leaves 99 other youths out is society who are not able to come to school but who dream about it just as I did. The opportunity of winning a $50,000.00 scholarship will not only keep in me school, it would allow me to complete college and hence establish a grounds for me to peruse higher education and a brighter life. However, more importantly, it will also give hope. Hope not only for myself but for others like me who are out there. It would greatly encourage youths to take opportunities such as the one I am part-taking in to help the lay the foundations for a brighter life and future.

March 10th, 2010 | #
I would put it into a high interest savings account until I finished school, then use the $50K + interest towards loans.
March 10th, 2010 | #
IF I WIN A $50,000, I WILL TRANSFER FROM A COMMUNITY COLLEGE TO A 4 YEARS COLLEGE. I WILL STOP WORKING EXCESSIVELY AND DEDICATE MORE TIME TO MY STUDIES. I WILL ALSO TRY TO ACCOMPLISH SOME OF MY DREAMS DEFFER ED. FOR INSTANCES, I LOVE SOCCER. I WILL PRACTICE MORE AND GET BETTER. ALSO, I WILL CATCH UP WITH MY READING. I LOVE READING.
March 10th, 2010 | #
With a 50,000 scholarship, I would not only be able to further my education– completing my undergraduate degree and preparing to enter an MFA program– I would also be able to begin promoting my writing career by entering my work in literary journals and competitions.
March 10th, 2010 | #
It would truly be a blessing to win 50,000 dollars. With this money I will be able to pay for my education without any worries and provide a better life for my daughter and I. With economy today it is very hard to find jobs and winning 50,000 will definitely ease the stress that I face everyday trying to pay for school and take care of my daughter as a single mother.

I would use it to pay for college and my rent as I am single working mom. It would be great to not feel so burdened by finances.
March 10th, 2010 | #
that would cover a whole years tuition at my school
March 10th, 2010 | #
that would cover a whole year or tuition

I would be so relieved to receive a $50,000 scholarship! I could pay off my college loan from my B.A. degree, and pay for my M.A. in IT management. It would be a dream come true. I have always wished for a steady job with a good income, and this would make it possible.
March 10th, 2010 | #
Thinking of what I could do with 50,000 dollars the possibilities are endless. I am a current junior in college and a single parent so you can imagine that debt is inevitable, so I would pay off my debts and use the rest to help with future semesters. That money would not only help me as a student but also as a mother, I wouldn’t have to work all the time on top of going to school full time and I would be able to give that time to my daughter who absolutely deserves it.
March 10th, 2010 | #
It has become overwhelmingly difficult to afford an education in this day and age. A sum of $50,000 would place degree-seekers in a comfortable situation regarding student loans. Such a sum would allow a hard working student like myself to succeed in the world and gain a valuable education. It would provide a foundation for the start of a family.
March 9th, 2010 | #
Senior year of high school, that’s where I’m at. Hearing the word scholarship makes my heart race, but $50,000 scholarship is like a heart attack. I would definitely put it into good use. Such as paying for books, which can cost a lot, tuition, and sports. I am a hard working student golfer, but I’m not the hard core ones who practice from sunrise to sunset. My dream is to become a professional golfer and be able accomplish better than my parents have done in their lives. I want them to be able to tell other people that, “My child is better than me!”.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship, I would use it to pay for my schooling. I would also put some of it to good use by using it to pay for my books. Also, I would use it to pay for schooling so that I could obtain my master’s degree in teaching. Thank you for considering me.
March 9th, 2010 | #
I’m 22 and currently living with my single mother and my younger brother who will start college soon also. It would help me get a car. This way, I would get a decent job and use the time I waste waiting for the buses on schoolwork. I would be able to take my brother to college. I would also use this money on programs such as Adobe Photoshop and Dreamweaver, a tablet and camera equipment which would help me in my studies and my future career as well.
March 9th, 2010 | #
$ 5,000, which seems like a lot in my eighteen year old mind, I would use that money for tuition, college fee and books. If it was possible, I would use the money turns medical bills for past hospital visits from my own health problem and EEG.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I won 50,000 i would pay for my college education. I am going back to school to support my two handicapp children. I am tired of living check to check this would be a blessing and and an honor.
March 9th, 2010 | #
First of all, if I had won a $50,000 scholarship I would be ecstatic. Since scholarships are mainly for school, I would start using the money by paying off all my school loans. Then, I would put aside a good amount for buying future textbooks for all the years I would be attending until I graduate with a masters. Next, I would also put aside a good amount for rent to live close to school and for food. With the left over money, if I have enough to the point I will still have money for emergencies to put in my savings, I would like to get my first car. If I won a $50,000 scholarship, my life would be less stressful with current and future finances.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship I would use this money too pay my tution fee and give some money to pay other bills that my mother had to pay. I give some money for donation to church and other people who need money like veterans or people need food.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If i won a $50,000 scholarship, I’d be able to pay for all of my college, AND help my struggling family. I would probably also pass out if i won the scholarship. I would also buy a reliable car because the one I have now is falling apart and I’m going to school 300 miles away from home. I don’t trust that it can get me to and from home on holidays without dying.

If I win this money, I could realize my dream of studying at Buffalo State College as a future educator. I am Latin, and being a minority student, this kind of help would be great support for me because with this money, I could pay for school and library books. It would help incredibly large. As a student, I would have a better future, as a teacher and I would provide the best quality education to American citizenship. My country and my parents will be proud of my achievements.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I win this scholarship, I could make my dream of finishing my studies in education at Buffalo State College. It would make me really need this money to pay my studies and books. Besides, being a minority student would be a great support for me to get this help. I’m from Puerto Rico and go to New York for a better future and work as a teacher, to give a better future for American society and demonstrate that we can all achieve our dreams no matter where we come from. My parents and my country is very proud of my accomplishments. Thanks!

I recently started online classes. Unfortunately in order to afford these classes, I had to take out 5,000 dollars worth of loans – just for the first semester. When I finished high school, I planned to attend a great school in my home state. The college was offering a full-ride, but I decided against it – for good reasons, too. I have an 8-month old baby. She was born shortly after finishing high school, so any college classes are a great feat. Since I have had to take out loans, I will undoubtedly be in debt for the rest of my life – probably still living with my husband’s mom as well. We currently live in a small trailer with a total of six people. It’s terrible. We do not have the money to get our own place, especially since we are going to be paying for the majority of my schooling out-of-pocket. If I was able to get any sort of scholarship, I would be able to afford a home of our own and my schooling!
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 I would use the money for college rather than taking out too many loans. It would allow me to be able to not have to work three jobs like my mother did so she could have a degree.
March 9th, 2010 | #
I would use all my money towards school and pay for books and other important needs in college. Try to limit unnecessary things that will eventually hold me back.
March 9th, 2010 | #
I am an unemployed, non-traditional student, returning to school after quite a length of time, and am due to graduate July 5th of this year.So if I were to win the $50K scholarship. I would pay off all the student loans that I have taken out to pay for my Associates Degree in Medical Specialties that I am taking at “Stevens-Henager College”.
March 9th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would use it toward my college education. I plan on going to graduate school and know that the fees will add up fast!

Definately, since I am paying for most of school out of pocket pay my school and book fees with it after I figure out what scholarships and grants I do have, but also set up a school savings account so that it can build up interest and I would continually at least still have money building up so I can finish school and start working towards my doctrate degree
March 9th, 2010 | #

My mom has worked so incredbly hard to support my education. It would be a true blessing if I could give back to her what she has for me. I know she is in debt and I just want her to be worry free. She is getting older and I just don’t want her to have to fret about money. My mom is my hero, my everything, and I just want to see her smile.

March 8th, 2010 | #
If I had $50,000 dollars I would try to use it for education. I think it is wise to spend it on education, because without education there is no knowledge for opportunity. Education is what shapes our future. Without the funds of education, our society could not be able to go to school for a bright future.
March 8th, 2010 | #
If I got fifty thousand dollars, I would quit my job. I would then devote the rest of my time to school until the stockpile of cash comes to a finish.
March 8th, 2010 | #

March 8th, 2010 | #

March 8th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship I would stay in school and get a degree in multiple areas instead of just one or consider graduate school more seriously.
March 8th, 2010 | #
If I was awarded a $50,000 scholarship I would put the money toward the remainder of my schooling and work less hours at my job. Being a full time student with one full time job & one part time job the money would be extremely helpful so I could focus the majority of my attention on my education. Oh what a beautiful thought.
March 8th, 2010 | #
If i had a $50,000 scholarship i would use it to pay for my college because i don’t exactly have the money to pay for it. i am going to be majorly in debt to college loans and don’t have the money to pay them. it would most likely pay for my whole degree and that would help me more than ever.
March 8th, 2010 | #
College is very expensive. If I win this scholarship I would use it to the best of my ability to get as far as earming a PHD. Coming from a low income family from a small city Leogane in Haiti, I know how important education is because it is something that was very difficult to recieve due to low income and poverty. I came to America to get a better future and I believe this scholarship is just what i need to get me going in the right direction.
March 8th, 2010 | #

March 8th, 2010 | #
Receiving a 50,000 scholarship would be so beneficial for me at this point in time. It would pay for almost all of the 2.5 years I have left, as school costs me about 18,000 plus a year. I am currently in school full time for my Bachelors in Psychology, while working full time also at a Clinical Research Organization. The 5,500 that I am receiving every year is nowhere near enough to pay for school in full, and I currently owe my school around 10,000 for the classes I am attending. If I receive a scholarship, I won’t have to pay them several hundred dollars a month out of my already minimal salary.
March 7th, 2010 | #
With that much money I could go where I wanted. My parents wouldn’t have to worry about the fact they can’t afford to help me pay for any college.
March 7th, 2010 | #
Wow, 50,000, would be like a dream come true. I would finish school. I had to put school off because my husband had to go overseas and we have 2 children, so I had to be home with them. My youngest had 2 open heart surgerys, so I had to work after that to continue to support him, so I had to put off school again. Then last we had to go overseas and hey did not offer anything for Americans to go to school. Sice we have goten back our house has flooded 2 times and we have started over, so I have had to work. My husband just retired for the USAF and 50,000 would get me off to school, laptop and all that is needed to get my degree. I need to show my daughter why she needs to go to school right after high school instead of waiting 14 years. I need the degree to get a better job so I can make sure my children understand the more important decision to make after high school is to GO TO COLLEGE.
March 7th, 2010 | #

March 7th, 2010 | #
If I would win a $ 50,000 scholarship, I would pay back my parents for all the effort they made to help me with school, since I couldn’t work full time and be a full time student anymore.

Winning this scholarship would be amazing. I would be able to graduate almost debt free. I have two years worth of college done as a senior in high school and was excited by the idea of graduating with a bachelors in another two years.

March 7th, 2010 | #

March 7th, 2010 | #
If I won the scholarship I would use it to be able to go to a school that would better benefit me in my choice of study. It would definitely help me and my family out since my father has been unemployed for a little over a year. It would be great to win the money and know that money would not be an issue in keeping me from a school that could be the best choice for me to attend to get the education I need, so that I can get a good job after college.
March 7th, 2010 | #

March 4th, 2010 | #
What would I do with a $50,000 Scholarship?! I would continue my education beyond an Associate of Arts, Business Administration degree to a dual Bachelor Degree of Operations Management and Project Management, extending to a Master Degree in Project Management. The $50,000 Scholarship would also make the 3 years of volunteer Operations Management experience to be more effective. Not having to worry about the financial aspect of gaining a formal education would provide more mental space for applying myself to my studies. I currently hold a 3.61 GPA.
March 4th, 2010 | #

It would be a great way to greaten my career chances in the advertising field, and fulfill my passion for art.
March 4th, 2010 | #
What would I do with a $50,000 scholarship? I would definitely continue my education beyond my current Associate of Arts in Business Administration Degree, to continue onto a dual Bachelor Degree in Operations Management and Project Management, ultimately, attaining a Master Degree in Project Management. This would allow the opportunity for a 43 year old female, returning to school after 20 years away from formal education, to qualify for a Project Manangemewont Institute Certification. Being blessed with a $50,000 Scholarship would also make the volunteer experience I have acquired as an Operations Manager for the last 3 years more effective. A scholarship of this magnitude makes it easier to enmesh apply yourself more to your studies.

It’s a perfect fit for my interests, is in a city I love, and will give me a a big push towards my ultimate goal-a PhD in Bioengineering.

If I win 50,000 in scholarship, it would relive my stress in paying for my dental school education. I want to become a dentist but the cost of tuition for four years is bringing stress to my family. The last thing I want to do is to have my parents pay because I have three other siblings who will be going to college/medical schools. I can’t be selfish. So which is why I am trying to look at EVERYTHING for a possible source of financial assistance without my parents. But it’s so difficult.
March 1st, 2010 | #
Well, I would honestly split the scholarship money up between my siblings and I. Having 5 kids wasn’t exactly my mom’s plan at all. She thougtht she was gonna go back to school after having me but that didn’t happen. I think $50,000 would cover all five of us. First person in the family to possibly go to college is cool but we’re not rich like most people are so we can’t afford any of it. I think it would truely be a blessing!
March 1st, 2010 | #

I’m not 100% on which major I would chose but Hospitality and Recreation Marketing Operations is one I’ve just not started thinking heavily about. I love people and I love travel. It’d be great to give vacationers a great travel experience they will never forget. It’s all about spreading the joy of foreign lands while maintaining great customer satisfaction.
March 1st, 2010 | #
$50,000 huh? That would put me in a great position to be a full time student and not have to worry about anything dealing with money for school for a long while. I’d be able to get my degree and support my family properly.

If i won a $50,000 scholarship, I would use it to help me pay for college. I plan to go to UPenn and the total ecpeses will be appriximately $54,000 ayear. I simply cannot afford that. Even if my dreams of becoming a doctor come true, I do not want to be working for my entire life to repay my college loans. My parents are teachers and they are currently putting my sister through nursing school. they can only afford to give me $5,000 a year to help pay for college. Having this scholarship will lessen the burden associated with college expenses on my as well as my parents.
February 28th, 2010 | #

February 28th, 2010 | #

February 28th, 2010 | #
If I won this scholarship I would be able to go to the college I originally wanted to. I had to change my mind because of tuition differences.

Financial security is what i strive for, but it may not be reachable.
February 27th, 2010 | #

I just started there a few days ago and it is very expensive and I am 25 years old with a part time job that does not pay well. I would also buy a new computer and a vehicle that is not falling apart on me.

I would use this to fund both my and my sister’s education. Going to college is critical and I want both of us to have a chance to get an education and become independent people. My parents have worked hard to help us get this far and this would be one of the best ways to help show our gratitude for all of their efforts.
February 26th, 2010 | #
If I won the $50,000 I would be able to enroll as a full time student rather than a part time one. The money would go towards paying for all of my prerequisite classes at Glendale Community College. After which, I would transfer to the University of Arizona so I could continue on to my career job of being a Pharmacists. And with that being done, I would be the 1st generation to complete college, since neither of my parents did nor did my brothers. And if I had any remaining money, I would ensure that it went towards helping other accomplish their own dreams, or simply donating it.
February 25th, 2010 | #

February 25th, 2010 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship, I’d be sooo relieved!!
It would be great to afford the college career that I want! It would also really help me afford to go to a two-year community college to earn my GED, and then on to a four-year university to earn a master’s degree in geology – specifically, mineralogy…
It’s been my dream to one day have my own rock and mineral shop, or to work for somebody in the field. A master’s degree in the subject would be a GREAT help. I’ve been collecting rocks, crystals, and minerals ever since I was a small child and I’ve become quite good at it; I’ve got the experience, but I still need a degree to back me up.
A $50,000 scholarship would all but secure success in my future. It would relieve the stress of hunting for a substantial scholarship, or several smaller scholarships. With a $50,000 scholarship, I could focus more on studying and less on worrying about money.
February 25th, 2010 | #

My brothers and sisters join the military and i dont want to unless i have to and if i cant get into college thats my only choice.
February 25th, 2010 | #

If I were to win this $50,000 scholarship, I would be able to get through college, it would help pay for my college tuition, housing, books, meal plan, laptop, and materials needed for the major of Emergency Medical Services. My mothers job got moved to Haiti so she is a dislocated worker, and just recently got state funding to go back to college to become a phlebotomy technician, so money is very tight. On top of finishing my senior year, I am the varsity cheerleading captain, and I have a part time job. I have worked very hard all throughout school and believe I would be a great recipiant for this scholarship. Thanks So Much!

February 23rd, 2010 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship I would use it to pay for as much of my college education as possible. I don’t want my parents to be unable to afford to put my siblings through college just because they used all their money for me, and I don’t think they want that either.

No I don’t want to be a doctor or a lawyer but that still doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be eligible to receive a scholarship. The money would help make anyone’s dreams come true.
February 21st, 2010 | #

I also have a sister who is a sophomore in high school so at this time, my college tuition is a little out of my range.

February 20th, 2010 | #
If I win a scholarship, I plan to attend school for a straight 6 years and get my Masters in Graphic Design. I really want to go to school, but the only support I can get is from my mother, since my father (who makes three times as much as her) isn’t going to pay for my education. I really don’t want to depend on my mother, since she is suffering financially (she has to pay child support for my brother starting in June), and I don’t want to be a drag on her. Since I am in high school, it has been difficult to find a job, since they are giving the jobs to older people and to college students. Hopefully, with all of my entries to scholarships, I can win at least one, and lessen the burden on my mother, who has done so much for me.

With 50 thousand dollars, I could pay for Brigham Young University, where I am going to earn a double major; a BFA in Acting and a PhD in Sociology or Anthropology.

February 18th, 2010 | #
50k would go towards tuition and basic film equipment..or maybe a computer. I can’t afford any of that right now. People say that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. That is not entirely true. You need a lot of money to go along with the drive.
February 18th, 2010 | #

February 15th, 2010 | #
If I were to win such a substantial scholarship, I would most likely drop to my knees and start crying a tidal wave of euphoric tears! Pursuing my education is so important to me, but it will be near impossible for me to go through Grad School without help. I have big dreams of becoming an English professor, and with $50,000,I’m confident it could happen. It has been a fear of mine that I would wrack up hundreds of thousands in student debt…and as a bright-eyed high school senior, I only want to embrace my future without fear of bills I am not able to pay. My parents, too, are unable to help me, and I do not want them to feel guilt for that, because they have raised me the best they could have.
February 15th, 2010 | #
If I were to receive a $50,000 dollar scholarship I would finish in getting my Bachelors. Then I would take the rest and pay off my student loans. Having a better career to support my children is the most important thing. Thank you for the opportunity.

February 14th, 2010 | #
Winning that amount of money would relieve so much stress of how i could pay for college. I rather have dept than put that pressure on my family, due to the fact that they’re already finacially unstable. I could pursue my career with more concentration and less stress.

If I won a $50,000 scholarship, it would help me out so much. I’m trying to not have to get student loans for college. I’m only 18, living with my mother, her boyfriend, and younger brother.

I’m a senior in high school & am planning on attending Indiana University of Pennsylvannia, Fall 2010 for Marketing. Being the oldest child of four & living with my single mother the 60,000 doller cost of four years at Indiana is nearly impossible for us. Although we are trying as much as we can to make my schooling possible having a 50,000 doller scholarship would be more helpful than I can even say. It would pay for almost all of my schooling, & leave nearly no loans to pay making it possible for my brothers & sisters to also get the good education I’d be able to have.
February 10th, 2010 | #

If I won $50,000 in scholarship money,I would use it soley for my education. Being that my education requires me to be a full time student, along with dedicating myself to clinicals full time, it would be a blessing. I would be able to live off the money for the duration that I am unable to work, instead of having to obtain loans and repay those and struggle/stress while I look for employment.

January 27th, 2010 | #
the first thing i’d do with a 50,000 dollar scholarship is make sure my books are paid for.
January 27th, 2010 | #
My parents always believed in giving equally to both my brother and myself. They recently finished paying for my brother’s undergraduate tuition with little effort. I intend on planning on one of the Ivies, and let’s just say that the tuition for one of those schools isn’t exactly the same cost as they paid for my brother’s. My parents told me they would pay the same amount for tuition as they did for my brother (which would cover a semester, at best), and are not changing their lifestyle at all. I do feel that this is somewhat selfish of them, but at the same time, the final cost would be around a quater of a million dollars. Words cannot describe how much winning this scholarship means to me, because then I can prove my parents wrong that I DO pay attention to scholarships and taking important matters into my own hands.
January 26th, 2010 | #
Paying off school loans would make a big difference in the amount of income you would have at the end of the educational journey. With $50,000 this would ba a reality not a possibility.

A $50K Scholarship will relieve me of a lot of stress. I have recently returned back to college and enjoy it. With the Scholarship, I am going to #1 take a 3 day interstate vacation for the purpose of relaxing, clearing my mind and carrying out a proper plan, with credit repair first on the list. Repairing credit will not happen over night but within the first 30 days I will guaranteed have a 0 balance credit dept.
With approx. $2,500.00 x 3 children = $7,500.00 invested into a bond, T Bill an investment of some sort towards my childrens education after high school.
I’m quite sure other needs will be met but the first on the list has been mentioned. The bottom line is I will be stress free for a moment and be able to experience other issues of stress. I will be also be able to financially bless someone with a paid PG&E bill or something similar.
My field of education will be promising when complete, therefor the scholarship will also free me of the unneeded stress towards studying and hopefully one day be able to give someone a scholarship of this magnitude consistently.
January 23rd, 2010 | #
If I won it would be the best present for my parents, ever!

I just want a chance to assist physicians and give the patients a better understanding of how to deal with having cancer and know it will be better in the long run.
I just want to finish the program and get a better job for the future. I have an IT degree but with the laidoffs and the cutbacks it is hard to find a job in that field.
Medical assisting and billing and coding seem to be the best fields right now to take.
I just want to finish school.

I’m definitely using my scholarship money to pay for my college fees because I really dont want my parents to be responsible for the payments and expenses.

January 1st, 2010 | #
i would use it to pay my living cost in advance and fix the family car, this way i could consintrate on what more importaint. i would love for once not to be treading water and juggling life.
January 1st, 2010 | #
simple.i would use it 4 my school-fees
January 1st, 2010 | #
It would definitely go all toward school. It would definitely help out my parents because I really don’t want them to get a loan for me.
December 31st, 2009 | #
Pay for grad school and pay off my loans of course.
December 31st, 2009 | #
I am a nursing student and am currently working at every possible moment. A scholarship would allow me to pay off some of my debt from school and not have to work as much so that I can focus on being the best student I can.
December 31st, 2009 | #
If I won the 50k scholarship, I would use it to help pay for my housing during my 4 years of college.
December 30th, 2009 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship i would pay off my first three years of college because at the college i would like to attend, it would cost about a total of 16,000 a year.
December 30th, 2009 | #
If I win a scholarship to help me with school I would continue my edication. My goal is to get my masters degree, and even though I am already in school full time and take 7 classes, a scholarship would make it that much better for me.
December 29th, 2009 | #
Winning a scholarship would be a major step in starting a career and a new beginning for my life. Although the economy today is diminishing, I will still pursue education with every ounce of perseverance in me; no matter how much it will cost me. But receiving a scholarship is one way of pushing me to approach my goals. I want to do something extraordinary with my life. Going to college and getting a rock solid education is one way of using the life God gave me to glorify Him.
December 29th, 2009 | #
i would pay my tuition, and buy some books for school…
December 28th, 2009 | #
Times like this…it’s hard to say!
I picked up a 2nd part-time job just a month ago…and 50k itself is whole lotta money for any student. This sort of money can help many other deserving individuals too of course. I would save 40k in a savings account…and “live” on the rest till I graduate with my BS. Thereafter, I would invest the rest for MBA from Haas. I love that place…and it’s my lifetime goal to attend undoubtedly.
Having achieved that goal, I would help others down the line, both as a businessman and an activist; and also someone who’s been influenced directly.
December 28th, 2009 | #
If I received a $50,000 scholarship, I would pay off all my students loans and continue my education.
December 27th, 2009 | #
If I win a scholarship, I would definately invest it into my education.
December 27th, 2009 | #
Dear Sir,
I’m grateful writing to you once more. Actually as far as my education is concerned, I’m struggling on my own. I’ll be grateful if you help my with this $50000. I’ll advance my education and even help my siblings. God Bless you.

December 23rd, 2009 | #
If I won a 50K schoalrship, I would continue my education; it would initially help with the process I’ve already initiated.
December 23rd, 2009 | #
I am attending a two year community college in 2010. After graduating, I plan on continuing my education by going to Savannah College of Art and Design. This is a very expensive school, therefore I would use the scholarship money to pay for the tuition, as well as books, school supplies, and gas money for to and from school.
December 22nd, 2009 | #
If I would win a scholarship with that much money I would want to go to a University and get a degree in business advertising. I would also like to go for the masters degree. As a student i would have a higher chance of being happy in life.
December 22nd, 2009 | #

December 19th, 2009 | #
I would finish nursing school and start my career as an RN.
December 19th, 2009 | #
I never won a schoolarship, because I just come to live in USA, i did not know exactly what to do with money, thanks for the explanation
December 19th, 2009 | #
I would cry if I won. I want to be a physician so badly and I want to set a good example for my daughters.
December 18th, 2009 | #
It sucks that people from Guam USA cant enter for this scholarship. It would be real nice though.
December 17th, 2009 | #
It would be a blessing from above!!! First of all I would pay my tithes and then pay all my school loans and the rest would go to starting a small business that would continue to generate more money!!!P.S. It would be the greatest christmas ever and a new beginning
December 17th, 2009 | #
If I won the scholarship I would be able to fully pay for my schooling. I have been wanting to go to school since I got out of high school in 2004. I am finally getting that chance to get halfway through. The only thing missing is the rest of the tuition money. And this would cover that.
December 17th, 2009 | #
$50,000 scholarship would pay for my education completely I want to study graphic design and maybe become a teacher the only thing that is stopping me is the cost…
to recieve this scholarship would solve all my economic problems and give me a career that would surpport me for the rest of my life ^_^. I am not a mother with a child I am a student with a dream the college I want to attend is 13,000 a year and with my finacial aid I cant afford even a semester at the college this scholarship would not only be appreciated it would be the only scholarship I’ll need
December 17th, 2009 | #
if i win $50,000 scholarship i would go to college and pay off everything because my family can’t afford to pay for my college.
December 16th, 2009 | #
If I recieve $50,000 for college Iwouldn’t have to worry about my parents going into debt. I can Graduate from A four-year college without worrying about money issues. To me recieving $50,000 will be a blessing for both me and my family.
December 16th, 2009 | #
A 50,000 scholarship would help me to finish my program and limit the financial strain on my parents who do everything they can to help me to succeed. And I would help pay for my little sister who has autism to pursue her dream in majoring in music.
December 16th, 2009 | #
if i won the scholarship, it would help me pay for med school.
December 16th, 2009 | #
I would use it for tuition
December 15th, 2009 | #
I would use the money for my remaining college years. I get the hope scholarship right now, but it’s going to run out at 125 hours. I added a minor so that added another 30 hours that I will have to pay out-of-pocket. I also wanted to study abroad in Spain for my Spanish minor, and without help I wouldn’t be able to go.
December 15th, 2009 | #
If I win a scholarship i would use it to pay for part of my student loans, buy equipment to start my freelance career as an audio technician, and hopefuly pay for school to further my eduacation.
December 15th, 2009 | #
If I won the $50,000 Scholarship, rather than using it to continue my education, I’ve already got loans out as I’m currently doing that, I would pay off those outstanding loans thus bringing my interest and loan payments down much further than what they are currently. The way I see it, it’s money I didn’t have anyway, so why not just spend it on what fees are already accumulated rather than burdening myself later with having to pay the larger fees. It’s not everyday that help like this comes along.
December 15th, 2009 | #
If I had that kind of money I wouldn’t have to worry about not being able to go to Vet School.
December 15th, 2009 | #
I would take this money and go to college. This is likely my only way of getting to college, since my family doesn’t have much money. I would go to the University of Missouri’s Journalism School with the money,
December 14th, 2009 | #
If I had that amount of money I would go to Notre Dame. I have only visited this collage, but I have dreamed of going there.
December 11th, 2009 | #
Winning a scholarship of that amount would be so beneficial to me. I cannot even imagine.
December 10th, 2009 | #
I would pay off my college education and save the money for a rainy day
December 10th, 2009 | #
if i win a scholarship of that much i would attend the school of my choice and pursue a career in law and try to master as many languages as i could comprehend
December 10th, 2009 | #
i need 2 pay on time.
December 9th, 2009 | #
it will be so helpful for me to go to college. i really want to go to george washington but it is so expensive so if i win 50,000 it would just make my life
December 8th, 2009 | #
this would be pretty cool to win that amount of money that fast
December 8th, 2009 | #
I will be grateful to have such an opportunity to win such a scholarship. I will pay my tuition, boarding and books, textbooks and even help my siblings in college
God bless you,
Rohdof Lactem Yengeh
December 8th, 2009 | #
wOW, 50,000 is a lot, I could use that for college for myself and my brother.
December 7th, 2009 | #
If I won the scholarship it would definitely help pay for college. My parents have not been able to put back much for education expenses since living expenses for my parents and brother and I have taken most of the money over the years. It would be much appreciated to further my education
December 7th, 2009 | #
two words: GRAD SCHOOL
December 5th, 2009 | #
I could use the money to go back to school, and get a better pay job. I would be able to work less hours while in school, allowing me to graduate sooner.
December 4th, 2009 | #
Sir,
Accept calvary greetings in the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ who gives us daily victories. Upon all my struggles alone to proceed with my education. Wow!!! What an exciting and awesome news for me to earn a $50000 as a scholarship. May God richly bless you.
Your friend in Christ, Rohdof Lactem Yengeh
December 4th, 2009 | #
I wouldn’t have to worry about working two jobs and try to get all of my school work complete, I would work harder in school knowing that I would have to money to pay for college.
December 4th, 2009 | #
Maaaaaaaan! If I had 50k i’d be able to graduate with no debt (including the stuff I’m currently in)It would be such a burden lifter and I could focus even more attention to my studies-maybe even pick up the degree I really want! My 4 kids would be well taken care of for the time being and I won’t feel the (little) guilt I do for not working

I would love to have $50,000 to pay my accumulated loans thus far and be able to finish my next 2years of college debt free. Which will help in starting my own life once graduating from college.
December 3rd, 2009 | #
I am currently in school now and doing well. However, I am in year one of three. Next year has no funding for me and if I dont find the funds ASAP i will need to drop out of my program next year. I love this university! I held out for this one amoung several acceptances. I now find myself spending my free time searching for next years moneys. If I win make the check out to Loma Linda University! I don’t even have to physically see it! Hope I’m chosen!!
December 3rd, 2009 | #
if i won a 50,000 scholarship i would pay for college basically. i would pay off my student loans and this semesters current debts. i would then put the remainder of the scholarship in a CD to drawn intrest for a year untill i have to pay for my sophmore year. i would then put that remainder in a cd to draw intrest for my junior year, and so on. if i won fifty thousand dollars i would turn it into 60,000 to pay for school
December 3rd, 2009 | #
This money would help me to be able to pursue my dreams of studying Criminal Justice. I want to be able to go to college and get my masters but it is very difficultbecuase college has become so expensive. The money would assist me with the books and classes that I will have to take.
December 3rd, 2009 | #
Im 19 years old and I currently study at the Pontifica Universidad Catolica de Puerto Rico. If I were lucky and get the opportunity to win the $50,000 scholarship definately I will use it to help my parents pay my tuition. Or I will saved for the future so I can afford the college of pharmacy that I always have dream of.

December 3rd, 2009 | #
If I win a 50,000 scholarship I would first, pay off all student loans and use the rest (if there is any money left!) to fund my church’s youth ministry called ‘Today, Tomorrow, Forever’. The program is geared toward young women and tweens between the ages of 12-18. The goal of the ministry is to help girls realize their worth, make dreams a reality, teach them how to love themselves and learn about Christ. I love working with youth and I would love to give back to them and help them in any way possible. i know that winning $50,000 would surely put me on the right track to doing so.
December 3rd, 2009 | #
would use it to help pay for the rest of my schooling, and it would take all this pressure off my parents for having to work so hard, and they could focus on raising my other 3 siblings.
December 3rd, 2009 | #
If I won a scholarship their wouldn’t be as much stress on my parents to work as hard as they are to put me through school, and they could focus more on raising my other 3 siblings.
December 3rd, 2009 | #
If I recieved a $50,000 scholarship I would pay my parents back for what they invested in my school, pay off my loans and put the rest into a retirement account.
December 2nd, 2009 | #
If I received a 50,000 scholarship I wouldnt have to worry about the cost of pharmacy school. Winning a 50,000 scholarship would be a blessing. I wouldnt have to take out a loan or try to work 2 jobs during the semester to pay for school. Words couldnt express my appreciation if I received a 50,000 scholarship.
December 2nd, 2009 | #
If I would win a scholarship, I would be able to finish school. I’m a senior this year in college and every year I struggle trying to find money to stay in college. I’m to the point I might have to take a semester off because I can’t get anymore financial help. My mom has helped my brother in the past and is still paying off the loan so she can’t help me. My father refused to help me so I don’t have anyone to help me. I would be very grateful to win a scholarship to help me finish school.
December 2nd, 2009 | #
if i won this 50,000 dollar scholarship i would be beyond grateful. My dad just lost his job today and my parents are divorced. I go to the University of Dayton which is a private catholic school which has always been my dream to go to and the school is very pricey. My brother is in law school and my sister also attends UD but she is a senior. I am an education major and i have always wanted to be a teacher ever since i was little. People always ask me why are you going to Dayton to become a teacher you can get a degree for that anywhere. I always respond by saying that Dayton has one of the most credited education programs and i want to be the best teacher i can be for my future students. This scholarship would mean the world to me to so i can continue my education here at The University of Dayton.
December 2nd, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000 Scholarship, I would like to go into ITT Tech at Knoxville, TN (class online maybe), and help pay my boyfriend’s college. My boyfriend is legally blind, and I helped him into college, and in fact he is paying his college. The $50,000 would help save us some times just in case if he loose his job.
December 2nd, 2009 | #
Being a single parent finally getting my divorce. I’m still not receiving any support and I’m sure I won’t and I’ve been struggling trying to make ends meet. I’m going to school so that my son and I can have a chance at living my life rather than struggle. I’m pregnant with my second baby and with a great man but he’s under-educated himself and is running a paper route for the little that we do get. If I got a scholarship I would be that much closer to finally getting to where my family deserves. I might be able to breath.
December 1st, 2009 | #
If I recieved $50,000 I will have enough to go to school and not worry about how I am going to pay for my tuition and my books. Since the economy is not in good shape it is very difficult to try to even finish at a university or to any good school where you can excel at. I will be the first in my entire family to graduate from college.
December 1st, 2009 | #
If I were given the opportunity to have a $50,000 scholarship it would take a huge load off my shoulders. I would be able to focus more in my studies and not have to worry about my financial situations. It would be a great stress reliever and would help me succeed tremendously in my field. my family has always suffered financially but this scholarship would truly be a blessing. thank god for programs like these. I truly appreciate it
November 30th, 2009 | #
If i received a $50,000 scholarship, i would pay as much of my student loans in school right now as possible. My school is 30,000 a year and i would pay most of it for one year n the rest of it for the next year so i could get my undergraduate degree in journalism.
November 30th, 2009 | #
I WILL PAY MY PARENTS HOUSE WITH THE MONEY LEFT OVER GIVE GOD 10 % AND TRY TO BUY SAVE MONEY FOR MY BROS COLLEGE
November 30th, 2009 | #
I would finish out my Master’s Degree
November 28th, 2009 | #
I would definitely use 50k to pay off my student loan expenses and it would cover my tuition to Savannah College of Art and Design. It’s been my dream to make it at SCAD and I’ll stop at nothing to see that dream through.
November 26th, 2009 | #
If I win a scholarship I would be so blessed and thankful because I’d be able to go on to college and pursue my dream carrer. I’d be able to pay off tuition and books and anything else needed for a college. This would be the best oppurtunity for me, to go to college and major in music education. It would make me a happy person to be able to get my dream job and teach the children, “Our Future”, music. Being the first in my family to want to go to college, I think a scholarship would make a big difference and help me out with my education.
November 26th, 2009 | #
I would go back to school and finish my Masters degree. After being laid off and living off my 401k, this is the only way!
November 26th, 2009 | #

November 26th, 2009 | #

November 24th, 2009 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship, I would’nt have to pay back student loans and I can get back my actual pell grant I suspose to get. With that much money I will graduate and then go right back to school.
November 24th, 2009 | #
A $50,000 scholarship would help me tremendously in my quest for a college education. I am a walk on gymnast with many hours of practice a week. My parents are constantly looking for ways to finance my tuition. We receive a small Pell Grant but could definately use the help. It would take so much stress off my parents.
November 23rd, 2009 | #
It would pay for my college tution fees,get a laptop,buy my books, and any left over I would pay for some of my medical school. It would be a great gift it would take the stree from me, and I put more in to my study. I would not have to worry about how I would pay my bills ny more.
November 23rd, 2009 | #
i would be sooo grateful if i won…first id get a car cuz right now i have no vehile and i am relying on my sis-in-law to take me here n there…then the rest,ofcourse, would go to fund nursing school.
November 23rd, 2009 | #

November 23rd, 2009 | #

November 17th, 2009 | #
I would use it help pay for my expensive tuition so I could actually attend the school I choose next fall.
November 16th, 2009 | #
There are some many things you can do with money but if I had 50,000. I would pay my tution off, give money to charity, and help my mother get out of debt. I am upset that I had to leave school because I could not pay my tution but I am trying to enroll to a school closer to home so, it will be cheaper and I will only have to pay for books and classes. 50,000 will pay for all six years of my schooling and I will still have enough left over to help other that are in need of help.
November 16th, 2009 | #
All of us who aspire to higher academic education and life’s opportunities realize how difficult it is to finance college. If I was blessed with any financial aid, it would go a long way in allowing me to attend a four year university that has a renowned violin music performance program. This money would allow me purchase the violin necessary to reach the next level of the dream I am pursuing. In addition, it will pay for allthe room and board required to attend a university for four years.
November 15th, 2009 | #
I would use it for school. So my parents wouldn’t have worry about how i will contiune with my dream of becoming a doctor!
November 12th, 2009 | #
If I won this scholarship i could stay in school and be the first in my fammily to go and finish college.
November 12th, 2009 | #
If i was to win the money i would use it to pay for my grad school. My dad set up a college fund for my before he died and his parents were left incharge of the account once he passed. I recently just found out that they had decided to invest the money in the stock market as a way to try and make some money for themselves. Unfortunately the stock market when way down and now i have no money in the fund to pay for school. my grandparents refuse to replace the money that they used and i dont know if i am going to be able to afford to go to grad school without a scholorship
November 10th, 2009 | #

November 8th, 2009 | #

November 3rd, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000.00, this would be a dream come true. I would be able to pay my student loans and tuition. This would help lower my stress level of transitioning career fields once my degree program has been completed.
November 3rd, 2009 | #
Wow, with that much money, the possibilities are endless for someone my age. First things first though, I’d most likely use that money towards paying off my college tuition and help out my family with pressing matters in the meantime.
November 3rd, 2009 | #
Pay off all my student loans and put the rest in an account for my daughters college.
November 3rd, 2009 | #

November 2nd, 2009 | #
I would use it towards my dream at becoming a screenwriter, i hope to bring laugher to more people, because it’s one of the many things that the world needs now, and screenwriting is one of the things that computers actually can’t do.

If I won $ 500,000 scholarship, I would ask my friend to pinch me and make sure I’m not day dreaming, then I would use this amount for my first year at West Virginia University.
October 30th, 2009 | #
If I won the $50,000 dollars I would spend it on the college of my choice, because that is the most important thing right now
October 30th, 2009 | #
Ugh….. I tried and I would Love to win but when I entered they told me I had to be 18 or over But I really do think its a great Idea.
October 30th, 2009 | #
If I earned a 50K scholarship, I would be able to breathe a little bit. My parents both decided not to go to college and now in these hard times, it’s just getting harder. As of right now, money is a big factor with picking a college. But my grades and effort at school will hopefully pay off in the end so that I can get scholarships, go to college and get a degree and not have to live my whole life worrying about money.
October 30th, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000, I would put it towards finishing school and studying abroad. As of right now, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to go to school next semester because of tuition hikes. My dream has been to go to Italy, and with $50k, I would have the chance to finally go and even stay for a year for school. If there was money left after school and traveling, I would use the money to get my own place so my parents wouldn’t have to worry about paying for me. They’re struggling to make ends meet as is, so the possession of money for me would help them out immensely.
October 30th, 2009 | #
If i were to recieve a scholarship i would be soo happy. my mother has financial struggles and isnt able to pay alot of money for me to go to college and i want to go to have a successful career and a better life.
October 30th, 2009 | #
If I would win a scholarship, I would feel blessed because my dad is the only one that works and he has done alot for me. I would love to get the scholarship in order to pay for textbooks and any college materials I will need.It would mean alot if I had money to continue my education because I would be the first one in my family to do so. My dad has worked alot in order for me to have the life that I have, since he won’t let my mom get a job.
October 30th, 2009 | #
This would be the first scholarship I’ve won. If I win I will use evey drop of it toward furthering my education. The cost of education is increasing now-a-days.
October 30th, 2009 | #
I would pay for my college and housing while there. Being raised by my mother since age 11 with no help from my Dad, things have been pretty tight. The scholarship would help to relieve the stress on my family.
October 30th, 2009 | #
I would love to have a 50,000 dollar scholarship. I would be able to get my masters in accounting and I would also like to be able to do a doulbe major with business management.
October 30th, 2009 | #
Lets be honest everyone wants help paying for college its just not cheap and the economy is not much of a help. The point is I’m not about to make a sob story, don’t feel bad for me, but I’d would like help so my family won’t have to do without alot so i can make a way for myself to suceed. Your consideration would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.
October 30th, 2009 | #
$50,000 is alot of money!!! With this money i can pay for my four years in college!! I want to get a bachelor’s degree on music education but if i get this big opportunity, i can have the chance of expanding my education and getting my master’s degree. It’s something that i would really appreciate!
October 30th, 2009 | #
I will be bale to go to a four year college and pay for medical school.
October 29th, 2009 | #
I have high hopes for college- I wish to go to a school such as New York University, with both a strong academic and arts program. But as the daughter of a single mother, I cannot afford to attend the colleges I know I can be accepted to. If I won this scholarship, the money would go towards my tuition and thus contributing to my dream of being an Art Director.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000 scholarship, it would make my dream of going to college to become a pediatric nurse, hopefully in the oncology unit, become a reality. I really hope to help other people in my life and want to get an education before I can make that dream come true. Thank you.
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would put the scholarship towards my tuition at The Citadel. My tuition after 4 years will be close to 70,000 dollars and any scholarship I am able to receive would be helpful. Especially a 50,000 dollar one.
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would put it towards school and paying iff dept
October 29th, 2009 | #
if i could win $50,000 I would be able to pay for my tech school with no debt. When I finish school I could join the working world ready for success and not have to stuggle with college debt. So many time students that don’t really need the money win or are offered the money only to rack up more debt because they have never had to work and earn their own way. I know I could put it to good use.
October 29th, 2009 | #
with a $50,000 i would probaly use it to pay for my first year and if friends need help, help them out other wise just pay for school mostly. and have some put aside for a rainy day
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would get a college education so that i can be a very successful person in life.
October 29th, 2009 | #

October 29th, 2009 | #
If i won that scholarship i would find the best nursing school in my area and attend it. Earn every degree possible.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If i won a $50,000 scholarship i would proudly go to college and pursue my dreams in becoming a nurse. Knowing that my school is paid for i wouldnt have anything to worry about it and do my best in school.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If i had a scholarship i would be able to go to college and be the first in my family to graduate from college. I would be able to help others!
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would be able to study Graphic and Website Design in a local college which would really help me with my online business
October 29th, 2009 | #
If I would win a $50,000 scholarship, I would be so overjoyed! I could pay most of the college school off, and wont have to worry much of paying all that money myself. My parents wouldn’t afford to just pay my college, and my sibling’s colleges off. So, this would be wonderful.
October 29th, 2009 | #
im anayely gutierrez and i am a senior, if i win the money that money would help me to pay my first year in college and support my education.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If i received this scholarship i wouldn’t have any reason why i wouldn’t go to college. College tuition is expensive and i am a struggling single mother. i would really love to have this; it would make my life a lot easier.
October 29th, 2009 | #
A $50,000 scholarship would be the most amazing thing to happen to me. First off, this scholarship would relieve me of all financial costs for my undergraduate studies. I’m very close to finishing and obtaining my long desired bachelors degree. In addition to that, I would use the remainder of those funds and apply it to the next level of education. Because the economy has yet to recover to a healthy state of economic growth, I would use that time to acquire new skills that would give me an advantage in marketability in my particular career as the economy recovers. And without a shadow of a doubt, $50,000 would be the single greatest financial relief for these educational costs.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship I would have more college options. We have great state schools, but I would like the option of attending a private and/or out-of-state university.
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would like to find best college in my home town and continuing to study and get my diploma/bachelor degree. i’ll use the rest of the money to buy text books, Notebook and many other thing that can support my education.
October 29th, 2009 | #
i would pay for my first year of college in fall 2010 which includes books, housing etc…
October 29th, 2009 | #
I would be able to use $50,000 to payoff some bills and help my daughters buy their school supplies as well.
October 29th, 2009 | #
If I am lucky enough to win a $50,000 scholarship, it could do wonders for me. My single mother would not have to pay for anything during my first years of college. I will be able to concentrate on school and do the best I can in my education instead of worrying about the high costs of attending a university.
October 28th, 2009 | #
I would be able to go to college and not have to stress about money 24/7. After college I would be able to go onto law school where I would hope to receive a law degree. Also, if i received $50,000 it would take the stress of my mother’s shoulder’s of how to put three children through college.
October 28th, 2009 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship, I would put some of it in the bank and use some of it to pay off the tuiton for the semester. It would be terrible to spend it all at once, so it’s best to have it there for ‘just in case.’
October 28th, 2009 | #
Since I’m international student, the $50,000 will help a lot; I can’t afford the massive amount of tuition next year. Plus, I’ll use this money for my campus life. (rent, meal, book, transportation, and etc.) I really need it!
October 28th, 2009 | #
If I won the $50,000 scholarship it would be a pleasure for me to announce how much that would help me as well as my family relieve the possible stress that finding money for school would give us. This scholarship would help a lot because my father is an unemployed Diabetic and my mother is working alone to support a family of 7. So earning this scholarship would truly be a blessing. If not i understand that there are many other scholarships out there that I could possibly apply for.
October 28th, 2009 | #
if i won a 50,000 scholarship that would be so amazing. it would be amazing because my parents are divorced and we don’t really have any extra money for college. i have younger brother and sister that want to go to college to and i know that my parents can’t pay for college for the three of us so getting this scholarship would just make my dreams come true. what is would do with it would use it for college. duh.
but to be more specific i would like to take that money to get me into the school of my dreams. this school is commerical divers academy. i want to be an underwater welder and this college is the one that suites everything i need and want.
October 28th, 2009 | #
If I won a $50,000 scholarship I would definitely attend the school of my dreams. If not a highly known school, maybe a school that will provide me the education I would need to become a doctor. If I won that $50,000 scholarship I would be given the chance to expand my education taking me beyond to the next level with my career. This scholarship would really clear the stress of finding money for my education and that would be one of my greatest highlights.
October 28th, 2009 | #
I would use it to attend the college I want to because I believe that education is the ticket to success. There is nothing else I would rather do with the money than to fulfill my hunger for learning to my heart’s content.
October 28th, 2009 | #
A $50,000 scholarship would help me get through college and be almost debt free. It would help me from taking out loans. Without a large amount of loans to pay off, I could start with my career and flourish in life, rather than be in debt. I want to be the best I can be in life and with a scholarship like this, it would help my dreams and hopes come true.
October 28th, 2009 | #
if i had $50,000 i would save $45,000 for college and $5,000 would be spent on enjoying my senior year.
October 28th, 2009 | #
I would definitely use it to finish the diploma course I am in now. I possibly, width that kind of money for school, would go on to get my 2 year degree.
October 28th, 2009 | #
If i had $50,000 I would put it towards school. Once I graduate high school in 2011, i’m heading straight to college to learn more about the law and becoming a lawyer. The $50,000 would help me and my mother, as we all know times are ruff right now and can’t just pull tutition out of our pockets.
October 28th, 2009 | #
If i win a $50,000 I would spend it for my education. I would not waste it over to something that is not important. At least I can use the money for my education. This is the only thing I can think of so far because of economic crisis today.
October 28th, 2009 | #
I would use it to pay my tuition and other fees.
October 28th, 2009 | #
Oh my goodness thank you so very much for this great chance to finish my education with your help.

October 28th, 2009 | #

October 28th, 2009 | #
With $50,000 dollars, I would use the money to pay for as much college as possible. I would spend as little as possible of it for other reasons. This would help reduce stress on my family, who even with me working would have trouble paying for it.
October 28th, 2009 | #
if i has $50,000 i would definitly pay for my college funds and then i would look for a house and a car
October 28th, 2009 | #

October 28th, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000. I would be able to attend colllege ,To pursue my passion in teaching. I would really like to become an elementary teacher, but it’s extremely hard to get funded for school.
October 28th, 2009 | #
If I had a $50,000 scholarship, I would pay for my own tutition seeing that during these difficult economic times it will be hard for my parents to pay for my college education. I would love to be able to help my parents in that hard process.
October 28th, 2009 | #
I, would definitely payoff my tution to be tuttion free. After my 4 years to further into my professional career of choice where I, can successfully earn my assocaties to move on to receive my Bachelors degree without any help from a student loan program or the support of my single mom whom pushed me into a postive direction.
October 28th, 2009 | #

October 28th, 2009 | #
it sucks that we have to be 18 in order for us to compete surveys
October 28th, 2009 | #
Well, I was born into a christan family with hard working blue and white collared working parents and an older brother. And raised in the ghetto of south chicago,illinois. There was a time in my life through nine and thirteen years of age, where the state took me away from my parents and placed me in foster homes and shelters. During that time, I’ve been beaten, abused and placed in more than six different housings in a span of a year. At a young and fragile age i couldnt understand why god would let this devistating situation happen to not only me but my entire family. So, to make a long story short, everytime i would have visitations with my parents we would all pray. Pray for us and those who didnt care about us. In addition, theres one sentence that my dad always would say and that i always will remember. He said ,”Son, I love you to death, i will die for you and you’re just a young cat, just listen and learn”. So tirelessly i listened very intently to all my surroundings. It payed off, one weekend i crept slowly down my foster home staircase, i was listening to my foster parent seeming to be on an important phone call. After a while i picked up on what the phone call was about. My foster parent was talking to D.C.F.S arranging to keep me for another couple of months so she can get paid extra money to pay her house bills. A light bulb went off in my head and i realized what my situation was and how inspiring my dad was to me. To summarize, i’ve learned how recieving monetary value can make a person either greedy or enhance a persons life. I learned about principles of economics. Still, partially unclear till this day, state courts never justified why they seperated my family and I. But, i’ve now been with my real family for around six years with no word from D.C.F.S and now living in rockford,illinois. I hope to have cast a vision on how money can change your life. And, be an example by using the scholarship money to put me through Harvard business school and earn my MBA. Therefore i can make enough money during my career to uplift my family, relatives and i and those in desperate need of a financial boost to enhance their lives as well. Were all social Creatures lets progress maturely like civil human beings.
October 28th, 2009 | #
It would get me in to the college of my choice and really make my mom proud of me. My family has been through a lot, we went from 4 members to 3 last year and the economy has not been so nice to my mom and her job. $50,000 would make my life!
October 28th, 2009 | #
With that money I would go back to school and finish my degree. I haven’t been able to go back to school and finish my degree sine I have been working trying to pay off bills, haven’t been able to due to work schedule, financial hardships etc… It would be an advantage to have that money to pay two year’s worth of tuition and not having to worry about, How your gonna pay, if you don’t qualify for Financial Assistance or Scholarships.
October 27th, 2009 | #
Winning $50,000 would be absolutly amazing. It would help me pay to go to my dream school by helping with the cost of tuition and other expenses!
October 27th, 2009 | #
Everyone would obviously say this scholarship would be a great benefit (and I agree 100%). In my situation and like many others, college fees and tuition fees is one of my major worries. Who wouldn’t want the opportunity of being worry-free about money and be able to focus completely on your studies. Just incase you wanted to know, I want to be a Secondary Mathematics teacher/Massage therapist. Odd combination, I know. Anyway, the money would be great so please for my future students and patients, grant me this wonderful scholarship.
October 27th, 2009 | #
$50,000 wow i would die! if i won that money i would go to the collage ive always wanted to attend and have more time to study and work hard instead of stressing over money problems!
October 27th, 2009 | #
In today’s society, fifty thousand dollars is quite a lot of money. It’s the difference between going to college and going straight to work. I am very inspired and very willing to earn a degree in Culinary Arts. I have very little money and college tuition and fees are steadily going up. I would like to take the fifty thousand dollars “in cash.” This is because I could pay for my twin sister’s college and mine as well. I cannot express myself enough on the idea of receiving this large amount of money for a scholarship. I would be very honored, thankful, appreciative, and very humble. The thought, as it pondered in my active mind, gave me hope for a future. Without scholarships, I wont be able to go to college for several years or maybe not at all. My generation is the future. Why don’t we get a head start. One by one, we can all be touched by the grace of your help. Thank you very much.

Earning a 50k scholarship would help me pay for college and allow me to focus more on my education rather than working my way through school.
October 27th, 2009 | #
If i win this scholarship, i would be able to afford to go to college and able to become a well trained nurse who will assist doctors in saving lives on a daliy basis.
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would use the money to go to my dream college. I can no way afford it now. And I don?t want to spend years paying it off.
I am a first generation college student. I will be, anyways. many of my family members have not even finished high school. I want a different life than my parents. Not to live paycheck to paycheck. They didn’t graduate high school. So they cannot afford to send me to college. I am doing this all on my own…
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would use the money to go to my dream college. I can no way afford it now. And I don’t want to spend years paying it off.
October 27th, 2009 | #
With $50,000 my family wouldn’t have to worry so much about the cost of college. my brother is already in college and I know they stressed a lot over the financial part of him going to college. With the money, it would relieve a lot of the stress and I wouldn’t feel bad about going to college. I have awesome grades and can go almost anywhere I choose, this would help make that possible.
October 27th, 2009 | #
With this money, I could fulfill my dreams to college and would not be a burden to my family.
As college financial is the current bothering issue for a teenager like me.
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would be able to leave my dream as a pediatircan.
October 27th, 2009 | #
If i won $50,000 it would help me and my family so much. It is already hard to help put 5 kids through school, but trying to help put them through college is going to be tough on my parents. I am trying to win any amount. Every little bit counts but if I won this, then we wouldn’t have to stress as much!
October 27th, 2009 | #
If i won the $50,000, I would be able to attend college for the full four years. Right now my dad tells me if I get accepted to a college does not mean I will go there. Money is really tight with us right now; last month we sold our house and we still haven’t found one to live in, and 2 weeks ago my dad lost his job. I might not be able to go to college if I cant find a scholarship.
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would pay my school and support my kids to pay off their colleges tuition.
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would head back to school. I’ve been out of school for 3 years now and would really love to go back and further my education. $50,000 can really go a long way!
October 27th, 2009 | #
$50k barely enough for tuition,books, research, travel and upkeep for 4 years. I will put it to good use.
October 27th, 2009 | #
50,000$ would help me out alot. I dont have any help paying for college. My parents cant help me and my gma is a millionair but she wouldnt pay for my college. Im working now looking for a 2nd job so i can go to college. Im going to be going to NIC to study being a web designer. I am determined to go to college. If I had this money I could be able to go to college and the remaining money if any i would put in the bank to start saving up for my house when i get one. This money would really help me out alot. I could make my dream come true.
October 27th, 2009 | #
if i won 50,000 i would put that all to my college educaton, and not let any of that money go to waste and try and do the best i can in school.. becuase that money would not be any joke to mess around with
October 27th, 2009 | #
$50,000! Yes! That would be awesome! I would be so grateful to receive an amount that would pay for most of my college education. I already have a major and a school picked out, and this would about cover it. My parents would have a big burden off their shoulders as they think about also paying college soon for my younger sibilings.
October 27th, 2009 | #
Due to the economy I am the sole bread winner of my family…in order to do that more fully I need to go back to school to get my degree in Graphic Design. If I had $50,000 I’d use it to help pay for college, computer, external memory, cds, living expenses. And I would be able to start immediately.
October 27th, 2009 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship it would make getting my psychology degree so much easier, then I’ll be able to help others who have suffered with substance abuse. That is my goal, to help others. What more rewarding way to spend your life then helping those who seek help. The scholarship would make things so much easier. I’d be able to graduate without having to take any breaks, I’d use the money for tuition, books, a new laptop as mine is getting pretty old.
October 27th, 2009 | #
$50,000 would help me to support my wife and three kids and pay for the rising cost of tuition. The money would help alleviate some of the stress associated with such a difficult task.
October 27th, 2009 | #
I would be able to go to college with a much lighter burden on my family. This past year has been tough on my family, and I will be starting college next fall.
October 26th, 2009 | #
A 50,000 dollar scholarship would be absolutely a blessing from God. With this money i would be able to attend the school of my choice and be able to earn a very respectable degree. After earning a degree, I must use my talents wisely and act christlike in all my dealings. All glory would be given to my saviour Jesus Christ. That would help college tuition nearly fully, and I would no longer need to meddle with these sites. Maybe, just maybe it could happen…
October 26th, 2009 | #
If i win $50,000 scholarship, I will be grateful.
It will be a big help for my college career and for my family as well…
Having only my Dad help me get through college, I really need a lot of help..
October 26th, 2009 | #
I think it’s great that programs offer money for eople to afford school. It is very imporatnt especally nowadays.
October 26th, 2009 | #
I would definitely put a scholarship like that towards a private college tuition. I really would like to attend a private college, but the tuition is extremely high!
October 26th, 2009 | #
I’m afraid to take out student loans because I’ve seen first hand the problems even a little bit of debt can cause. Therefore the only way I will ever be able to afford college is through scholarships. To win a $50,000 scholarship would enable me to go to college without having to stress about how I would pay for it. This would make it possible for me to focus on my schoolwork, so that I could do the best I possibly could and be able to make a positive impact on the world both during my college experience and after I graduate.
October 26th, 2009 | #
I would pay all of my tuition and books. So after college I wouldn’t be in debt and can get started with my life.
October 26th, 2009 | #
I would use the the 50K for all my loans that i will be taking out next year for college
October 26th, 2009 | #
This would be so much help to me.
October 26th, 2009 | #
This would be amazing to win.
October 26th, 2009 | #
It’d be great to win this much money. I’d definately eliminate the financial stress my parents are going to have to face when I start college.
October 26th, 2009 | #
If I had a 50,000 dollar scholarship I’d go crazy. I could finish four years at University and another four in Law School. I’d come out of college debit free and closer to my dream of opening my own law firm. It will also be a load off on my mother, she has three kids in college.
October 26th, 2009 | #
I would donate that money to the homless women and their children at the center in downtown Atlanta. I have been there a numerous amount of times and all I have to give them is the limited amount of food that my family have prepaired for them. The children are the sweetest! All they want is food, and maybe a toy. I normally have to bring extra pairs of shoes, because they will ask for mines, or my shirt. I woulkd just enjoy being a blessing to them. My family dosnt have the type of money just to throw around, so if I had that type of money. The things I would be able to supply them with would exceed anything they ever imagined.
October 26th, 2009 | #
I would definitely use it to pay for my education and if i had extra money after, and if it was allowed, i would definitely give it away to other people who need it for their education!
October 26th, 2009 | #
For starters – I’d probably cry and jump around everywhere! I am a twin, and sending two students at once to college is VERY expensive. This scholarship will help me to keep furthering my education without the stresses that money causes and I can focus on being a great student!
October 26th, 2009 | #
If i win a $50,000 scholarship, I will spend most on college expenses. for example, tuition, books, laptops, a car (if neccesary) and so on . It will be so easy for me to go to college without any loan.The $50, 000 will save alot

October 26th, 2009 | #
Honestly, I would pay the rent for a couple months so that my mom could have one less thing to worry about. I would also buy a much needed computer, and books for my two sisters and I.
October 26th, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000 i would send by first child to graduate to college. I know it is going to be rough considering he has 6 other siblings following him. It would help me a lot to be able to send him to college. At least assist in some of his tuition. This would be a true BLESSING for my family.
October 25th, 2009 | #
If i won 50K, it would be the beginning of a dream come true. First of all, i would go to my dream school which is University of Santa Barbara California. i would get my masters in business and management, open my own clothing shop back in Saipan, put a down payment on a house and buy me car.. If only wishes came true, it would be easier to dream.
October 25th, 2009 | #
any kind of help is appriciated
October 25th, 2009 | #
It would ease so much stress in my life. I support myself and my 3 sons, am the sole provider for us, and go to school full time. The financial aid at my university has been reduced so this year I am really struggling financially. Any additional financial help would be soo appreciated. Thanks for considering me.

October 25th, 2009 | #
This Scholarship would be a blessing from God! I am currently not working and on unemployment due to losing my job for a medical reason last year in Nov. I am raising two kids right now and am currently facing financial difficulties and am being evicted out of our apartment due to not having the money to pay my rent. It would be a blessing to me and my family! I am beginning college in January to try to better my situation.
October 25th, 2009 | #
I would use it to quit and start full time school.
October 25th, 2009 | #
I would pay off my tuition for the next 4 years. It would also go toward me moving out of my house and into a dorm to experience the real essence of college. My mother is a single mother and my father helps when he can but due to the economy he no longer has a job. I worked two jobs over the summer to help pay for college but still was not able to raise enough.
October 25th, 2009 | #
I would be able to return to school at 52, finish a Pharmacy Technician program, go on to be IV certified and then to Purdue for their nuclear pharmacy technician program. The expense of the programs along with moving to two different states than the one I currently reside, is so very very expensive and the financial options for the 50+ crowd is virtually unavailable. This money would fulfill my dream!
October 25th, 2009 | #
If I were to win a 50,000 dollar scholarship I would get a higher degree in education.
October 25th, 2009 | #
With that much amount of Scholarship money, all I could think of is using that much for my college tuition, and book etc. I’m a single child but currently living with a cousin of mine who’s in college. My parents has been supporting her college tuition and, when its my turn to go to college I know we’ll have money issues. So Winning this Scholarship money would really give me a chance to go farther in school, thanks so much.
October 25th, 2009 | #

October 25th, 2009 | #

October 25th, 2009 | #
I am only a junior in High School, but I have big dreams for college and big dreams to help my families. Unfortunately, due to my families, my parents can’t afford a lot of money for me to go college So this $50,000 scholarship would really help to make my dreams come true and help my families out. Even though, the scholarship would not pay for my entire college tuition seeing as I want to go to University of San Diego, every little bit helps and this is not a small amount of cash. My parents has always dreamed about me going to University of San Diego and I want to help make my parents dreams come true, too.
October 25th, 2009 | #
Winning a scholarship of any amount would help to ease my financial burdens. Currently, I’m a single college student working 2-3 jobs to pay for school. Most companies don’t offer scholarships for single people; however, my need for money is so great $500.00 would be enough for me.If I were to receive 50,000 I would quit working and use the money to continue paying my way through school.
October 25th, 2009 | #
If I were to get a scholarship it would ultimatly help me and my family. I have 5 other siblings with me, the second youngest, still having to put my sister through college too, this scholarship would help out my parents in such a big way it’s imaginable.
October 24th, 2009 | #
i would use it to pay back my debt!
October 24th, 2009 | #
I would go to the college of my dream and also pay for my twin to go her favorite college because the 50K would be able to pay for both.
October 24th, 2009 | #
If I won a scholarship, I’d be extremely grateful. It would take a large stress off of my family putting me through school. My parents have been working a ton of overtime hours to earn the money to help put me through school.
October 24th, 2009 | #
I would split it with my twin so we could both go to college.
October 24th, 2009 | #
Winning this scholarship would remove a great burden from my mom and would help me to realize the dream of going to college. My guardian angels, my grandparents, would definitely be smiling and saying, “I told you so.” I would also jump and scream for JOY.
October 24th, 2009 | #
If i won the 50,000 dollar scholarsip my whole life would change drastically. Not only would the money help towards school any left would help with my other needs as well, such as money towards transportation and food.

October 24th, 2009 | #
$50,000 would help me to not only pay for grad school but pay off my undergrad loans as well. I wish I was lucky enough to receive this scholarship
October 24th, 2009 | #
My case is not unique given the state of the economy. I would use my 50k to pay for college. My mother and father have suffered unexpected loss of income. Which has forced them to foreclose on our house, a long with many other sacrifices. Including forcing me to have to pay for the remainder of my college tuition. Being an out of state student at ASU, this has taken a giant toll on me. I am so close to accomplishing one of my biggest lifetime goals, and now that is being compromised due to unexpected events.
October 24th, 2009 | #
I would go to college and try to get a degree that would let me help save peoples lives. It would be very rewarding.
October 24th, 2009 | #
With a $50,000 scholarship I would definitely put it towards my college fund. I am in the process of saving up as much as I can so that my mother will not have to pay for that much.
October 24th, 2009 | #
The money will help me and my family a lot.
October 24th, 2009 | #
The money will definitely be used for my college education, so that I could be a better asset of my country and my family. Just a simple person but with big ambitions, not dreams, wanting to make a mark in a chosen field of profession.
October 24th, 2009 | #

October 23rd, 2009 | #
What would i do with a scholarship? I’d use it to get a B.A. in English so i could work in a library or bookstore and introduce people to my favorite thing: books! Reading is too important for people not to care. So yeah, i’d use the money for tuition, books, and other things. College is too expensive to finance on your own.

October 23rd, 2009 | #
If i had 50,000 I would use the money for two things one would be for my schooling In Florida and the other would be for my career after I get my masters degree in entertainment
October 23rd, 2009 | #
This money would be used for past due bills and to get me on the right track with school and that will definitely help me sleep better at night. I have a 16yr daughter, by the time she starts college, I will be able to do as God intended for me to do, be a good steward of my responsibilities!
October 23rd, 2009 | #

October 23rd, 2009 | #

October 23rd, 2009 | #
Scholarships would be very helpful for me and are better than getting loans that have intrest.
October 23rd, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000, I would get a master’s degree in Dance, and I would be able to get all the way through a performing arts college and start my own career in choreography. I would be so much more motivated to do my very best and work harder than i ever have.

October 22nd, 2009 | #
It would be amazing if I were to win a $50,000 scholarship. My mom is self-employed and my dad has been laid off for the past seven months. We’ve always been a little on the poor side, but now it’s gotten worse. I’ve always wanted to become a veterinarian, and it requires money, that I, simply, do not have.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
It would be wonderful to recieve such financial help! With the cost to get a secondary education going up, any kind of help is appriciated.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would use the money for the usual, tuition, room/board, books, but also that I could save for a year abroad. I would love to spend a year in Madrid.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would love to be able to graduate college without any debt. So of course the money would be going to tuition fees and supplies. The money would also help with the cost of living.

October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would use it for school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If I have the $50,000 I would totally go to college if no doubt. I want to major in the medical field. Also, I want to go somewhere kind of far from home so I don’t have to live in the same town for college. College is something new in life and I’m looking forward to that! =)
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If I won the 50K I would use it to pay for tuition and help other friends I know who need the money do the same.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would be able to pay for the remainder of my college and possibly have funds to continue with my masters degree. I wouldn;t have to rely so much on my paresnts or student loans which are harder to get in this economy. I would be so greatfull and thrilled to will a scholarship.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would be thankful to God for giving me the chance to return to school at the age of 53. I would like to go into teaching and recreate the dream from 35 years ago that I gave up because I decided love was more important. I want to have both. I could go back to school and not be a burden to my husband and family.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 O would pay for my tuition costs for Graduate School. I am a 40year old woman, seeking to continue my education. I finally found my passion, later in life and that is Art Therapy. I can be helping others therapeutically and creatively. Isn’t that what life is about, giving back?
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If i win the scholarship money, obviously I’ll put it towards my tuition. Private school costs are pretty pricey, and $50,000 would be awesome.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If I had a 50k scholarship I would use it to pay for college. I was supposed to enroll in the fall but I couldn’t allocate enough funds and without some type of grant or loan I still won’t be in school in the spring.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
I would be ecstatic! I have absolutely no money for college at the moment, so I’d definately cover my tuititon.

October 22nd, 2009 | #
With $50,000 I would work towards my eventual goal of having a dual major in Psychology and Philosophy. It is my life’s dream to be able to work and be able to have a dual P.H.D in both areas. It would go towards buying a laptop for school, and for tuition to get into school. I’m hoping for something like this because I can’t afford college on my own. Any kind of financial assistance would be amazing
October 22nd, 2009 | #
If I won a scholarship I would graduate without being in debt. This would be a huge weight off my shoulders. I come from a small town and if I don’t have money when I graduate I need to go back there. I would be more likely to find a job in the city and going back home to save money would just set me back.
October 22nd, 2009 | #
Starting college off with this amount of money would be a wonderful thing, my parents and I won’t be in debt as a lot of people are right now in this recession. i’d use the money soley for college.

If I were to recieve $50,000 , Of course I would open up my possiblities for my future education. I am now striving to become a nurse practition, and hoping to get there on a soccer or track scholarship. I work hard for money as it is, & my mother can not afford school, so recieving that kind of money would be nothing less than a blessing. I would not take it for granted & would try to better myself with it.
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 for school…that would be a blessing
Its so stressful trying to pay for school
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I was blessed enough to receive $50,000 to pursue my dreams I would be overwhelmed with joy. It would relieve my mom of stress since she is a single parent. I would budget correctly to the point everything that I needed educational wise would be all payed for and all I would have to do is work and go to school. My goal in life is become one of the top ten best nurses in the country and with that opportunity to receive that money could help all my dreams come true.
October 21st, 2009 | #
simple pay my school and accomplish along time dream
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 I would put it in my college fund and pay it towards tuition costs, and room and board, and what ever else I needed it for. I would use it to pay admission to the college I would want to attend Berklee College of Music or I would pay it towards Cornish College of The Arts. I would also probably put like 2,000 of it towards necessities that I will need during college
October 21st, 2009 | #
50,000 would help tremedously in paying for my dream school, Xavier University in Cincinnati. I am headed into the medical profession either as a Nurse or Occupational Therapist working with children. I love kids and would feel awesome making an impact on them during their time of need. Thanks for this oppertunity!
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I were to win a $50,000 scholarship I’d definitely put it towards the tuition cost of getting into a private school rather than a public school. My parent’s income isn’t much, so finding ways to help them out really makes a huge difference. I would like to go to a private school because i have a Christian background and enjoy surrounding myself with other Christians. The only way possible for me to get into the school that I wish to get into is by applying for scholarships and getting financial aid. I truly am trying my hardest to help my parents out because they didn’t go to college and neither did my older sister, so I am the first one in my family to even think about college. This is a huge deal for my entire family because we definitely don’t have a lot of money, so I would really appreciate as much financial support as possible.
October 21st, 2009 | #
I will be so happy if I win the scholarship. The scholarship will help me out through my education, especially since I am the first person in my family attending college. I am 19 years old and I come from a single parent home so, it is difficult to afford supplies and books with a small income.
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I won that money it would go straight to my tuition and then I’d use the rest to pay for my books. After that I would pay for my room and board. All that money would be very useful and would go away fast.
October 21st, 2009 | #
Looking at all this stuff about finances i’ve realized its going to be something stressful to go through. But yet i know i can do it
October 21st, 2009 | #
I found this to be very helpful.
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000 scholarship I would go to medical school. I’m not going to be able to pay that much money, so I’m just going after a nursing degree, but with that scholarship I would be able to fulfill my dream of becoming a doctor.
October 21st, 2009 | #
if i had all that money i woud go to a 4 year college at a medical school but befor that i would do 3 years in cac!!
October 21st, 2009 | #
If I won $50,000. Well I would find out how much my tuition would be and add any scholarships I got then I would add the cost of romm and board and food then see what I have left.
October 21st, 2009 | #
I am attending the Berklee College of Music in January. It would be a blessing to be able to apply this scholarship to my tuition rather than taking out loans.
September 29th, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 I would IMMEDIATELY pay for tuition costs, laptop for school, books and any other supplies I needed for classes. Then, it would go toward any other expenses concerning college, such as living arrangments, as well as loans taken out in the name of education. I’m doing all this without help from family and currently work part time. It’s only enough for current living expenses, so I’ve truly got my fingers crossed for any financial assistance I can get.
September 29th, 2009 | #
I woulde use the money to help me with my expenses for college, and things I need to be sucessful in college: such as school supplies, dorm room items, and mabe a computer
September 29th, 2009 | #
I would use the $50,000 to pay for my college tuition in music education. I’m hoping that eventually I will be able to use my music training to teach music in less privileged areas in the world.
September 28th, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 I would definitely use that money for COLLEGE!!! I’m currently a high shcool senior @ George Washington Carver and I’ve now decided to attend Texas A & M, so that money would help me with so many ways such as some of the things i need for college.
September 28th, 2009 | #
If I had 50k, I would use it too pay for my tuition and to get the stuff i need for college.
September 28th, 2009 | #
If I had $50,000 I will probably pay for my books and materials when I go to college. I am senior and well I will pay everyhting that I need to finish my studies and get my dream career. Also with some of the remaining money I’ll will buy other accessories, or even clothes and maybe save it when my parents need it or I will need it.
September 27th, 2009 | #
My greatest dreams are unreachable with my limited finances. 50K would definatly set me over the top and ensure me a spot in the heart instutute!
September 25th, 2009 | #
I entered college in 2005 after a 20 year break to finish my degree. I went back to college because I had head injury and the doctor said that he could not help me any more, I had hit the wall. I was determined to prove him wrong. It had taken me 6 months to learn to drive, I lost several years of memory of my life. I lost time I had spent with my children, I had try train my brain. I went back to scool and got my degree. I was able to work for two years before getting laid off. I have $25,000 in debit from that. I have now gone back to school to get my masters in order to try to get a better paying job so that I will have more options. The job that I had have so many lay offs that they have now lowered the salary, that by the time everything like taxes and child care is taken out, I would end up paying them to work. I need to be able to provide my family. The money would be used to pay off my loans.
September 25th, 2009 | #
I’m 17 and headed to AIP next fall and the price tag that comes with it is a scary amount of money but will be well worth it! If I won $50,000 I would definetly put it towards furthering my education!
September 24th, 2009 | #
i’m about to go to college and it would be the best for me to not ask my parents any money cuz they don’t have one…..:)
September 24th, 2009 | #
I would use the money to pay for my tuition and books through my college. Whatever money I had extra would go into the bank rather than being spent.
September 24th, 2009 | #
I would pay off college, use it for housing, further my education and go on a long trip
September 24th, 2009 | #
I’m stuck in that weird middle class spot where i can’t qualify for grants but my parents don’t make enough to put me through college. If i won that 50,000 dollars i would put that money towards my education at Western Michigan University. I plan on becoming a Music Therapist and that’s my dream job. Music is my passion and not being able to pursue that dream becuase of finances would break me.
September 24th, 2009 | #
I am only a sophomore in high school, but I have big dreams for college and big dreams to help the world. Unfortunately, due to my three siblings, our college funds are meager and so, this $50,000 scholarship would really help to make my dreams come true and help make other’s dreams come true when I take my place in the world as an adult. Even though the scholarship would not pay for my entire college tuition seeing as I want to go to Stanford, every little bit helps and this is not a small amount of cash. My dad has always dreamed about me going to Stanford and I want to help make his dreams come true too.

OMG if I was to win $50,000 I would pay for the rest of my yrs in school off. Then I would use whats left to pay off the loans that i have taken out. If any is left I would keep in the bank for my next few years in school in case I need things througout the year!! It would really be a life changing experience and relive alot of stress off of my life cause having enough money for school is not always easy!

The $50,000 would be the best thing for me right now. I am 51 years old and attempting to recoup from a bankrupsy. Losing our house and everything was very tramatizing. I am trying to get into nursing school and the only stopping me is of course the finances. I can’t qualify for Pell Grant or any Federal Funding. So I need loans. With the bankrupsy and my credit is building from the toilet, no one will look at me. I am living with 3 disabled family members and trying to take care of them and well… Ithe $50,000 would go for my $34,000 nurses program.

To receive $50,000 would be a true blessing. Considering my family’s financial crisis within the past year, 2008, I am in need to come up with money in order to get to college. Last year was the worst year, financially, because we lost our home, I moved to 7 different houses in a matter of 8 months; we got our truck repo and my parents still worked their way to help my two older siblings pay for their college finances. I am currently a family of 8 because we have temporary custody of 3 children, who also have family hardships. Throughout all the hardships, my family has stayed a family and I believe that’s all that really matters. This scholarship would really help me to fulfill my dream of going to a four year university such as San Diego State University or California State University of San Marcos. I would definitely put this scholarship toward my tuition and books. This scholarship would be a true blessing for my family.

Wow!! If I were to win the $50,000 scholarship I would be simply ESTACTIC!!!! I need every amount and opportunity to win as much free money as possible.

A $50,000 scholarship?! That is the opportunity I have been praying for. Mercer University in Macon is my dream school. With that money, not only would it get me into the school of my dreams with $9,000 left over to go towards a laptop, it would be the jumpstart to a lifetime of success and an impact left in the world. I am going to major in Business Marketing and with my proactive lifestyle and positive outlooks, Leah Coquerel will not be a name left forgotten in history.

Winning a $50,000 scholarship would pay for my entire bachelor’s degree studies at the University of Oklahoma. Being that OU does not give scholarships for cheerleading all I can depend on is online research and my strong academics. After attending OU and majoring in political science and graduating in three years, I hope to attend New York University for law school. This scholarship would help me achieve all of the goals I have set since the 8th grade.

If I was fortunate enough to win a scholarship, I could prove to all those who said I wasn’t smart enough to go through college wrong. I’m currently in my freshmen year of college and tuition has come out of my pocket. I also was laid off from my job and unfortunately, can’t afford my books for this semester. I would be more than thankful for the opportunity to continue higher education.

I don’t think every person is college material. I know that I am not, but if I could get a scholarship I would attend Tulsa Welding School. I am going to the Master welding program, but I would like to take the Associate’s degree program. I would then be a welding inspector.

If I win the grant, I will keep the money in the bank to make sure I will not spend that on anything else than on school involved things. I plan to go to four year university, and I know it will cost much more than I am expecting. If I really win this opportunity, I will try to learn more seriously about finances. I wish I can be the lucky one!!!

I would like to someday find a way to reset our genetic code that enables our bodies to heal overnight and to regrow limbs. It would be my way of improving the human condition.

I could do so much with $50,000. I could have my tuition and supplies paid for the remainder of my schooling, including a new computer to do my projects. I could find a new place to live that would have plenty of space for me to focus on school work. I have a small student loan that I could easily pay off and put some toward my car as well. Mostly, I would just like to have money put back in case of any kind of emergency. Right now, it takes all I have to pay my bills every month and I worry about extra expenses.

If i were to have a $50,000 scholarship i would use it to finish school. I am still going to school and my financial aid can cover some of the costs, but it will take me longer to graduate. I could use the $50,00 also so that i don’t accrue too much student loans to pay off. The less my loans are the less i have to worry later in life. I am the first of my family to go to college, I would also like to be the first to graduate from college too. My younger brother and sisters all look up to me. I would like to show them its possible to do what my family calls the impossible.

I would use a $50,000 scholarship to pay my way through college such as tuition, textbooks, dorm fees; etc. Since both of my parents are on disability and have set-incomes, I can’t rely on them for help on college. I have been looking at several sites with available scholarships, but it seems like my chances are slim to none. I’m really hoping the FAFSA form will pull me through. $50,000 would be the prayer I need to further my education.

If I were to have $50,000 I would, in a heartbeat, go to Nursing School. As of right now I am taking my life one step at a time being a single mother. I am attending an MA course and after I get the opportunity of working in the Medical field I am definitely going to get my RN to better my future as well as my daughters.

if i had $50,000 I would do a lot of different things with that money. First it would depend onmy current situation if my family and I were in a bad situation then we would use the money to improve the situation and our way of life.
