National Merit Scholarship - an Opportunity for Success in Studies

My Name is Maneela Reddy Asapuram and I am writing about National Merit scholarship essay in application to assist me during my time studying in the Computer Technology program at the Eastern Illinois University.

Being awarded the chance to study further in my field at the Eastern Illinois University is an incredible opportunity for me and one I intended to seize wholeheartedly without reservation. I have consistently proven throughout my previous studies and working experience than when presented with an opportunity. I will strive as hard as I can to best represent myself and reward those who have granted me a chance to prove such. This is evident in my continuing relations with Mahaveer Institute of Technology and my professional mentors in Hyderabad. Despite financial hardship I have always done what is necessary to further my studies.

I have a deep passion to become an Application developer and build an application that could help the banking systems to retrieve the data lineage to be able to help regulators better understand the reserve calculations. I believe he course work here in EIU in Computer Technology will help me gain the necessary skills to take the first few steps in the direction.

Relocating from Hyderabad, India for the duration of the program represents a huge challenge and while it is one I am fully committed to, it does represent considerable financial stain. I will be doing my utmost to not let this affect my participation and concentration required to gain as much as I can from the program. My relocation will have a greatly increased financial burden to overcome throughout this coming time.

I am currently dealing with some financial difficulties and will be unable to pay fee for fall semester. I have designs to obtain a part time position in order to finance my studies, but it will likely not be enough to cover the whole tuition and accommodation fee in admission to my normal living expenses. I am requesting a student National Merit scholarship and examples of reasons why I am doing this are based on my financial situation, so with this scholarship I would be able to carry on with my studies while I work to better my circumstances.

This National Merit scholarship fully represents to me an opportunity to fully focus my attention on the main objective of achieving the best I can in the Computer Technology. I will strive to be a representative and ambassador of Eastern Illinois University throughout my future career and I am very thankful to be able to attend this course. I thank you for taking the time to evaluate this application.
