I’m applying phinma scholarship
Good day po
I am Christian Mocorro, a resident of Bacoor, Cavite, and I am a student who dreams of finishing my college education despite the financial challenges that my family is currently facing. Because of our situation, I am sincerely hoping to be considered for a scholarship that will help me continue my studies and achieve my goals in life.
I am planning to pursue the Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management program. However, this course requires a lot of expenses such as laboratory fees, activities, uniforms, modules, and other academic requirements. With our current financial condition, it is difficult for my family to provide all of these needs.
Kaya po ako humihingi ng pagkakataon na maging isa sa mga mapipiling scholars. This scholarship would be a great help not only for me but also for my family. It would help lessen the financial burden of my parents and my older sister who also helps support our family. Aside from our daily expenses, one of our priorities is the maintenance and medical needs of my father.
Naniniwala po ako na ang scholarship na ito ay magiging malaking tulong upang maipagpatuloy ko ang aking pag-aaral at maabot ang aking mga pangarap. This opportunity will not only help me achieve my personal goals but also fulfill the dreams of my family, especially my parents, who have always worked hard to support my education.
As a student with dedication, perseverance, and a strong determination to succeed, I promise to do my best in my studies and make the most of this opportunity if I am given the chance to become one of your scholars.
That’s all thankyouu po!
