[05:55.40]Reporter:Thank you very much for your time and once again,my congratulations!
[06:01.35]11.Listen,read and learn[06:06.92]What is a scholarship?
[06:10.29]Scholarships are financial aids
[06:14.44]to help academically able people further their education.
[06:20.08]Every year,many universities and colleges in many parts of the world
[06:26.64]follow a long tradition of ensuring that students get access to these scholarships.
[06:33.48]This allows more students to gain the full benefits of good education.
[06:39.65]A scholarship is a financial award for students
[06:44.51]who want to attend private secondary schools
[06:48.95]or undergraduates who want to study at private and public colleges.
[06:55.50]This financial award or scholarship is given in recognition of
[07:01.43]past or potential academic achievements.
[07:06.58]In most instances,students can only qualify for scholarships
[07:12.74]if they can show that they are in financial need,as well.
[07:18.10]A scholarship usually does not require repayment 2.
[07:23.56]Although most undergraduate scholarships are awarded to full-time 3 students
[07:29.80]at 4-year colleges or universities,
[07:34.35]a considerable number of the scholarships are for students who attend business,
[07:40.59]technical,library,science,art,nursing and vocational schools and 2-year colleges.
[07:50.26]Every year there are millions of scholarship programs out there.
[07:55.69]The key is knowing how to work your way through the ones that you qualify for
[08:02.14]and the ones you do not.
[08:05.62]There are many scholarship opportunities available.
[08:10.16]You should research as many funding sources as you can.
[08:15.75]Many scholarships have similar criteria 4 for their awards.
[08:21.08]By maintaining a high Grade Point Average,
[08:25.52]staying as active as possible in your community and extracurricular activities,
[08:32.37]evaluating and cataloguing your personal and professional strengths,
[08:38.24]and setting future goals for your education and career,
[08:43.81]you will have more chances to get a scholarship.
[08:48.98]Once you are certain that you meet the qualifications to apply,
[08:54.54]you should be careful with the application process by clearly expressing
[09:01.10]and explaining all your qualifying factors.
[09:06.25]It is always a good idea to ask for the assistance of a school advisor,
[09:12.72]counsellor,or professors,when applying for a scholarship.
[09:18.60]You need to start to start to build a network of professionals and educators
[09:24.24]who are willing to advise you,
[09:28.01]write recommendations,proofread your applications and essayds,
[09:33.88]and guide you through the application process.
[09:38.85]You should also know that only about 30 percent of the students
[09:44.49]who apply for funding are awarded a scholarship.
[09:49.48]This means it is a competitive process,so caution must be taken when applying,
[09:56.61]to give yourself the best possible advantage.
[10:01.34]However,failing to get a scholarship
[10:05.49]doesn't mean you won't have a chance in the following year.
[10:10.25]So keep on trying and do not lose heart.You may get a sc holarship someday.
[00:06.19]1.Listen,read and act.
