CHS Scholarship
This scholarship money would help me in my journey to obtain a degree in Kinesiology so that I am a prime candidate for the Doctoral Physical Therapy Program, where I can continue my education as a physical therapist. After completing my education as a Physical Therapist, I plan to specialize in vestibular therapy. I believe it is important to invest in my education and attend the best university for the future of my career. I am the youngest of 4 children which have put an additional burden to pave my way to college. This money would give me access to an abundance of resources to pursue my career goals. As a student from a low-income family, I face significant financial barriers when trying to pursue higher education, such as paying for tuition, books, and other expenses. This could also hinder my choice of school and housing which could alter my college experience. The scholarship can help to alleviate a little bit of these financial burdens, allowing me to focus on my studies rather than worrying about how I will pay for them.
