" I am so grateful for the Residency Year Scholarship. When I first was accepted into a residency program, I was thrilled to be part of it because of its unique experience and benefits. However, I was concerned about how I would survive financially throughout the year. I would be working at least three days each week for the whole school year while also being a full-time college student. I knew that this would make it difficult for me to find another job that would pay me enough to support me financially throughout the year. The money I received from my program was also just enough to help pay for tuition. It was getting to the point in which I was unsure I could continue being part of the residency program. Thus, when I heard about the Residency Year Scholarship, I jumped at the opportunity to apply and put all my hope in it. I am thankful I did because I was fortunate enough to receive the scholarship, and it has brought me great relief. I no longer need to worry and can now better focus on achieving my long-time dream of being a teacher. Thank you."
