“As a first-generation college student from a low income, single-parent household tackling my college journey has been a rollercoaster. 整个大学我都在工作 full-time to support my mother and to pay for college and, as a result, it has taken me longer than anticipated to graduate. I have been consumed with worry thinking about how I will be able to afford my last two semesters of school. 因为这种慷慨 scholarship support, I can enter my last year in college with less financial stress. I am honored and extremely grateful to be the recipient of such amazing support.”

“Attending UNC was an obvious choice for me, UNC felt so welcoming and supportive! The Musical Theatre program and its prestige certainly made the choice to attend even 更清晰的. Now that I am here, I can say with confidence that I’ve grown so much as a student, performer, and especially as a person. I am touched by the generosity of the UNC community and their willingness to help students like me in pursuing their education, and ultimately their dreams.”

“Once I was accepted to UNC, I started a challenging journey toward obtaining a degree with the hopes it would help me succeed in life.

“I aspire to be a role model for other students who migrate to the United States. I want them to know they can thrive and make a difference in the lives of others. This is why I chose to become an Elementary Education teacher with an emphasis on 文化语言多样性. These scholarships have greatly impacted my life and serve as a tremendous source of financial relief. 你的支持 has ensured that I can pursue my dreams and has provided me with an incredible support system here at UNC.”
