The struggles of a student by Jazlyn

The struggles of a student by Jazlyn - September 2025 Scholarship Essay

While thinking of a way to answer this question people may believe that there are several things that could be changed when it comes to education. However, personally I believe that there is more to it than just a quantity of things. For example, being a first-generation student and transferring to a private university seems like a great step forward for most, but for me it is starting to feel like a stressful obstacle.

I hope to see more opportunities for transfer students especially ones that are going to be very lost when they join a new school. I would also hope to see for grants and aids for students and not just expect them to take out a loan to better their education just because a funding is final when in fact there is still more aid to give to students. In addition, providing more aid to students who are in actual need of this money compared to students whose parents are making a great income and supporting them.

In the next 10 years I hope that education could become a more affordable opportunity that more students are able to take without having to worry about drowning in student debt because they want a better education or want to better their families' lives.
