Ateneo Financial Aid
July 28, 2013
Ateneo de Manila University
Loyola Schools
Office of Admission and Aid

Dear Sir/Madame,
First of all, I want to thank the Ateneo de Manila University for giving us the opportunity to apply for financial aid for my son’s college education.
My name is Jerson C. Gayeta, 54 yrs. old, my wife’s name is Verlina. We have 5 children, all are studying, the eldest and my only son is in 4th high school while the youngest who are twins are in Grade 6.
I have been unemployed for the past 4 years since 2009. I’ve been applying for a job from time to time but to no avail. The reason maybe is because of my age or there is too much competition. The source of our family income relies on my wife’s salary . At present, our financial condition is very tight, the expenses arising from the children’s schooling and the cost of our daily living is hardly met. We sustained our expenses by using the credit card facility of my wife, now with an outstanding balance of P110 thousand plus. This will also explain how we cover our family expenses vs. family income.
To date, my family lives at my mother’s house in Pasay City. The lot where the house stood was a benefit from the government. It was granted to my father (+) by way of rights. There is no land title yet which means that the government still has the right to take it back anytime. We have been living here as a family since I got married. We are dreaming to have our own house and lot in the future, but obviously we cannot afford it right now. Getting a home loan will further tighten our cash flow and might jeopardize the more important needs of our children (education & health). We are ordinary family, living a simple lifestyle.
The above situations prompted me to apply for financial aid that you are giving to deserving students. Again, we thank you for this chance to apply, granting us the financial aid will definitely alleviate our financial difficulty.

Sincerely,

Jerson C.

    Due to my family’s financial state, finances were my biggest concern for college when selecting a quality institution that was most affordable. Thankfully, I am financially supported by the Pell Grant, Georgia's Zell-Miller Scholarship, the University of Georgia's One scholarship for diversity, and my work as a resident assistant. Because of these resources, I am able to pursue higher education without significant financial burdens. My experiences related to financial difficulties have enabled me to be appreciative of the privileges I have now and to empathize with everyone I meet, no matter what type of background they come from.…

    This is in response to the official letter that I received from your office regarding the suspension of my financial aid. I am writing to present a request to have the privilege of receiving financial aid again. During my last semester, year, including the months leading up to my suspension for credits at Howard posed a challenging point in my academic career. With the external pressures and stress conditions faced at the time prevented me from meeting my set goals for academic progress. The long strenuous hours at work, the displacement that my Mother and sister faced by moving to Boston from Miami, then back to Miami, then later to Pittsburgh and then now back to Miami. The worries of what I was going to have to sacrifice in order to send money to my immediate family, as well as other less fortunate family members in Haiti, all took an unbearably heavy toll on me thus spilling over and effecting both my attitude and efforts placed towards my classes. It forced me to readjust and reprioritize things causing school and my studies to be placed on the back-burner. I found myself at work, working on days I had schedule classes. I wasn’t putting forth any real effort in any of my difficult classes primarily because I was so distracted with stresses outside of school. I was sort of just going through the motions. During that moment in my life I was fatigued end exhausted with school life. I had arrived at a point where I forgot why I initially came to Howard, which was to be the first person in my immediate family to attend college and earn a quality education. I came to Howard to earn a bachelors degree and work in a field, still to this day, I’m most passionate about. Without the required financial aid, it would be difficult for me to take…

    Obtaining Financial Aid

    Obtaining financial aid could have a lot of effects on a college student’s life. One reason is that not everyone may qualify for financial aid. When not qualifying for financial aid, it can get stressful in college because then you would have to save money up and come out of your pocket. Another situation a college student has to go through is not being able to get a refund if they fail a class. This means that a student would have to once more pay out of pocket and that’s a lot of their money being lost. For example, I do not have financial aid yet and because of that I now have to pay out of pocket for classes and books every semester. It’s stressful and makes me irritable. The only way to get financial aid for yourself if you do not qualify…
