Personal Circumstances Related to My Financial Need for a Scholarship
My name is Alfred Bill and I am 25 years of age. I have just completed my first-degree major in English Literature. My plan is to pursue my master degree in the same course. However, my personal financial circumstances are hindering me in achieving my academic goal. My father is a small scale farmer while my mother helps him in his farming work. My parents have 7 children and I am the fourth child among our children. The goal of my parents is to educate all their children assisting them completing the graduate programs, however, based on the little incomes my father realize from his farming profession, he is unable sponsoring his children beyond the undergraduate level. While I have already completed my fist degree, however, I am unable to pursue my master degree because of my present financial circumstances. Moreover, I do not have a full time paid job that can help financing my master education. In this wise, I will need financial assistance to complete my master's program. Securing financial assistance to pursue my academic program is my ultimate goal. I hope I will be one of those special people whom you will help with financially, and it is a great honor to submit my application for a financial assistance.
2. Academic and Career Goals
My academic goal is to pursue a master degree in English Literature, and my career goal is to become a professional writer. In the present job environment, increasing number of companies prefer job applicants with master's degrees. Thus, I will like to pursue my master program to stand a chance of securing a well-paid job.
3. Current Employment Relationship to my Future Plans
At present, I have not yet secured a full-time job that can assist me paying for my tuition. Presently, I am part a time script writer dedicating working for different companies on a short time basis. Since these jobs are not full-time employment, the stable incomes from them are not guaranteed. Thus, it is important for me to secure financial aids to pursue my master's program. If I am able to secure the financial aids, and complete my master's program, I will be able to secure a full-time employment as a professional and technical writer.
