Myself, My Achievements, My Objectives

I am a foreign student from Brazil and I am currently aiming to get a scholarship grant to pursue my college studies in the U.S. I am aware that this objective of mine is not new to almost all schools in the U.S. because I have seen a lot of foreign students who have successfully completed their studies in the U.S. And are now working in a successful career. I believe that U.S. is a good place where I can take up my college studies and obtain good knowledge and skills in good schools that U.S. has.

I am hoping to get a scholarship grant in a school in U.S. because I believe that my qualifications and credentials during my high school days can meet the criteria for scholarships in U.S. I have been active in high school and have participated in different activities that provided me with preparations to face the challenges of my future studies, especially that I am planning to take up my college education in another country.

For brief information of myself, I am among the top ten students in my high school class. I gained this honor because I studied hard and had never took learning for granted. While studying hard in the main subjects of my high school study, I also took part in extracurricular activities. I took part in our Junior Entrepreneurs High School Program wherein our talents in handling business activities were built and improved. I was glad that I took part in this activity because it had provided me with the basic skills and information in the business industry. It has also helped me a lot when I took summer works in my father's company. and, because I enjoyed the experience and skills that I am gaining from participating in the workforce, I had my 3 summers spent in working at my father's company.

It is a fact that there is a difference in language between Brazil and the U.S. but, I never considered this as a barrier to hinder me from my dream of pursuing a study in the U.S. In fact, I took it as a challenge for me to learn and gain skill in the English language. Hence, I took up 2 months classes in English language in the U.S. This is to prepare me in my coming college study in the country.

Currently, my main objective in the U.S. is to pursue and finish my college studies. Afterwards, perhaps, I also hope to further my studies by taking up a masteral degree. Aside from this, to be able to support my living in the U.S., I am also planning to take part-time jobs or perhaps full-time job that can meet my schedules during my college studies. I believe that this will not be a problem to me because I already have work experiences in Brazil. and, working to be able to support my living and my studies is a new challenge that I am eager to face because from now on I believe that I should be able to live independently - just as how this tradition is a normal practice in most of the U.S. families.
