Financial Aid Persuasive Speech
Good Afternoon Carol,

Thank you for reaching out to me! My apologies for the delay in response. We are extremely ecstatic to have Brandon to join the Pacer Family at William Peace University.

I understand your concerns and certainly know the importance of financial aid. You have started the correct process by submitting the FAFSA to William Peace University! Our financial aid team is currently working on the first wave of award letters, which should be mailed this week. There should be opportunities for additional aid on top of the merit scholarship Brandon has earned.

Also, I would strongly encourage Brandon to apply for external scholarships. If he’s a member of community organizations (YMCA, Boys & Girls Club, Churches, etc.),

    Growing up, I have always had big dreams of what I was going to do when I became older. It’s hard to believe that this stage in life has already arrived, but I know that I’m prepared for it and have great expectations for what is to come. I’ve set goals out for myself and plan on achieving them, but I can’t do so without the proper education. Unfortunately, education is expensive, and my parents have laid the responsibility of paying for college on my own shoulders. I can’t reach my full potential and become the best person I can be without your help in supporting me with financial aid. That is why I exceptionally need this scholarship.…

    I deserve to be selected for the KSU Foundation scholarship because I am dedicated to serving others and know how important it is to persevere. Having won an Air Force Junior ROTC national community service award in the 9th grade and having voluntarily completed over five hundred community service hours during my junior and senior years of high school, I want to continue on serving others in any capacity possible. Receiving this scholarship would allow me to continue on the path to becoming a surgeon for Doctors Without Borders by assisting me financially, allowing me to have more time to serve my community when I otherwise would have been working to be able to afford to stay in college and complete my degree program. Finally, my work and volunteer…

    In 2011, Deamonte Driver, a 12 year old from Missouri, died after an infection from his molar spread to parts of his brain. He didn’t know that this infection existed, and his family couldn’t send their children to the hospital or the dentist to get it checked. Their Medicaid plan had lapsed, and the family had lost their home. Many children around the U.S. miss their well-child checkups each year. They may have never visited the hospital, even when they’re sick. This is why I have come to convince all of you to donate to my charitable organization, The Children’s Health Fund. Founded in 1987, the Children’s Health Fund provides affordable healthcare to underserved children living in poverty across the U.S. Children are the future of…

    I firmly believe the "Courage to Grow" scholarship should be awarded to me because since I was very young, I have always had a strong love of learning. I did well throughout elementary, middle, and high school. I have always been motivated to do my best in school. Now that I am a second semester college sophomore, my love for school has only grown. During high school, I maintained a 3.3 GPA, and now that I am in college, I have managed a 3.4 GPA. This semester, I am working even harder for a higher GPA. In the spring of 2017, I plan to transfer as a junior to East Texas Baptist University. I have dreamed of attending this college since I was a freshman in high school. Since this is a private university, this dream will only come true based…

    Out of all the students that go to college more than half of them are in debt after graduating. In high school all you hear your senior year is “you need to do this in order to go to college”, “you need a degree to get ahead”. You work 12 years to get a diploma and then get told that in order to go “further” or “do better” you need a degree, but what they don't tell you is that you will most likely be in debt for the rest of your life.…

    PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as the military combat, natural disasters, terrorism incidents, or any major tragedy. This is common in the life of veterans and is the leading cause of suicide among veterans. A VA patient who survived in Baghdad shares his experience with PTSD and explains how he knew he had this disability. Many veterans speak out about this issue and describe their continuous anger, alcohol addiction, and constantly wanted to fight. They usually feel very isolated and distant from their loved ones. One patient states, “PTSD involves rocketing into extreme states of stress re-activity; in the form of terror, rage, and uncontrollable impulses, and plunging into equally extreme states of being shut-down—exhaustion, emotional numbing, despair, and dissociation”. PTSD is about having fear and anxiety, allowing veterans to rage with anger and different emotion. There are many factors to PTSD, which affects others in different ways; or example, using video games to keep them occupied, spending money due to the lack of impulse control because of changes in their brain, and even not obtaining another job.…
