I consider myself to be a believer. If I can dream it, I can achieve it through hard work and grit. Currently, I am a licensed practical nurse, with a solid 4.0 GPA, and an unrelenting determination to succeed. However, taking into account my financial situation, my academic achievements, my academic goals, and educational drive, a scholarship would solidify my ability to achieve my dreams of becoming a nurse practitioner, with an independent practice.
