Ladies, I encourage you all to apply for the Bonner Scholarship. I must say that this is a very hard scholarship to get. There are many applicants and only about 20 openings. But, still apply!!!! I am a freshman and i applied for it and I did not recieve it because of the large number of applicants, but, that was just me. The Bonner Scholarship is a community service scholarship. You will have to do a certain number of community service hours. Most of the people I know that are Bonner Scholars do community service at least 3-5 times a week, and on weekends. It is a lot of work, but the scholarship is worth it. Whatever monies you don't have, the scholarship will finish paying. Please apply ladies!!! It is a very good scholarship and maybe your luck wont be like mine...hope to see all you ladies in fall of 2005!!!

Do not get discouraged. No matter what scholarship you apply for there is always going to be a hell of a lot of people applying for it. Just have faith in your skills and what you have to offer and you can get any scholarship you want. I think only about 20 people get in but I might be mistaken, I do know that they dont let in that many.... but dont let that bother you. Its just the way things are, scholarships are competition, just know that you are a strong competitor.

This is why I want to attend Spelman... unbridled support. Thanks, girl! Even though I'm being facetious with my self-doubt, I appreciate that motivation. Hopefully, I really will get the scholarship...
