Northeastern NU-FIRST Scholarship

[shui054]

I'm a rising senior, and I want to apply for the NU-FIRST Scholarship. NU is literally my dream school, but unfortunately, it's way too costly for my family (although my parents make a lot of money through their work, there are 6 family members in my house and not a lot left if you know what i mean) and getting the scholarship would literally be amazing.

If there are past NU-FIRST Scholarship winners or applicants floating around here, can I have some advice for the essay? I'm the safety captain for my team, and I feel like my essay will be weaker than others because I'm not working with build/mech or programming. I definitely have a lot to say, but I feel like I'm going to have a hard time summing it up and relating it to others at NU.

Thanks and I hope that all made sense xD
