I was so honored, it really meant a lot to me to know that there are people out there who are proud of me and I appreciate this scholarship recognizing the hard work I had put in. Tuition is very expensive and this financial burden can be a lot on a family. My first year in college was amazing. I learned new things about myself and really rose to the standard that I had set for myself.
