Mhm, especially welcome to another episode on the beautiful Sailor Scrutiny College campus. She's Episode three Episode three is all about scholarships and how can we help fund our way through college without getting ourselves into serious loan debt? So I'm your host, Ian Isaiah Man crying. When we met in Episode one, I mentioned how important being diligent to receive skull churches. In today's episode, I will give you a few tips on how I have been able to receive more than 34 scholarships and travel awards totaling more than $20,000 which has been critical to keeping my student loan debt manageable and not overwhelming. As you know, most scholarships required good T p a. So number one, you must get good grades, right? So there's that. Not all scholarships and grants of merit based many are needs based or given to minorities. There are so many scholarships available, and I guarantee writing a few essays is much easier than trying to work full time and go to school full time. So I listed a few foundations at the beginning, like the full circle and the American Indian College from, but there are many others that you can apply to. Or you can write an essay about Bruce about Bruce Lee or one of my first scholarships, which was actually $2000 from the Tracy Foundation or well, you get the point right. The Internet is loaded with resource is designed to give students equal opportunities, but you cannot be afraid to brag about yourself or share your personal hardships. You are not going to receive every scholarship that you apply for him. More realistically, you might get one and five or one in 10. The better you get it applying, the more you can reduce those arms. I guarantee you, when you receive that 1st $1000 scholarship for just a few hours worth of work, it makes everything worth it, so you can keep your head up and keep applying. I'm a senior this year, and I have still applied and received three scholarships this year. Many of the scholarships you apply for asked the same questions. So get yourself a jump drive specifically for your scholarship content and just continue to update these files. This gives you a tool box of documents that will save you a ton of time when filling out future applications. I could not end this show today without talking about the Udall Foundation. This is the most prestigious award that I have received as an undergraduate, and it came with a week long trip to an Arizona resort. I got to network with other amazing native students, Meet Senator Tom Udall, and the $7000 check was kind of nice to get us. Well, I am so thankful to all of the donors that make these scholarships happen. They have been life changing and have made my higher education possible. So if you're a student looking at Sailor Scrutiny College, do not forget to talkto all the awesome people at our very own SKC foundation. They can help you be the driving force in your own success. Thank you everyone for watching and please keep a look out for the Episode four. When we explore the importance of student clubs on being active on your campus,.
