      Bold Goals Scholarship
      I have several goals for the future. One of those goals is to graduate in two to three years with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology from the University of Texas at Tyler. I have already earned my Associate's Degree from Paris Junior College since I took dual credit classes during high school, so that cuts off two years of basics from college. After earning my Bachelor's, my next goal is to go to dental school, which will take about two years. Since my biggest goal is to become an orthodontist, I will have to take two more years at dental school and specialize specifically in orthodontic courses. After I am completely done with school, I will work for someone else and start working my way into making my own dental office. Once I have my own business, the goals, that I know of, will be fulfilled. From there, I will have more goals to reach for.
