Pre-Nursing Scholarship Essay

Growing up in a small town in Georgia, I would have never thought I would have the opportunity of a life time to travel to a foreign country. As a young girl I was always on the go and ready for action. Of course I am still that young girl, now wanting to pursue my lifelong dreams. When I first heard about studying abroad my freshman year of college, not once did I believe that I could come anywhere near to studying abroad. There was no way I could financially participate in the program even with the scholarship opportunities provided. As another year went by, students continued visiting my classroom about studying abroad. During the presentations I would highly informed of the many scholarships available as well as grants to help out tremendously.
This experience will enhance my people skills and with further opportunities such as this it will also help with my understanding of different people that I encounter within hospitals as a nurse. Not only will this experience enhance me academically and professionally but also it would be highly beneficent to my overall well-being. Although nursing is my major I am a photographer and have a passion for music. Having such a strong passion for art has given me the motivation to capture and enjoy the little things in life. The roaring ‘60s was a very progressive age that brought in new types of music and arts into a limitless culture. Being able to have this firsthand experience would mean the absolute most to most to me. This trip will impact my life greatly, educating me on the beauty of a different culture, becoming a part of that culture as well as making lifelong memories. Receiving this scholarship to study abroad would give me a chance at a better look at life. A chance I could not fulfill by myself. I would be so blessed and honored to receive such a rewarding experience. Thank you for your time.
