how to write a "Why do you deserve this scholarship" essay
Answered

Hi! I'm a rising senior and will be attending CC summer semester. I am applying for a grant to cover the costs. They require a 250 word essay on why I deserve this scholarship. I have never written one of these before and I have no clue where to start! Some background- I will be attending CC in the county in which I lived all my life, I'm very community-oriented, I plan to be a doctor and live in my hometown. How do I do this? Thanks in advance!

Do you have any struggles you've had to overcome (financially preferably), or explain how getting this jump start and being compensated for it will help you achieve your dream!!
