Thanks for the information. there is a problem though with some lutheran scholarships. Using the ones you posted, the St John Lutheran scholarship is only for members of the particular St John Church. The Siebert Lutheran Foundation specifically states not for scholarships. But I that hasn't stopped me from looking into it a little more.
I an the oldest in a lower income family. I attend Concordia
University in Seward, NE. My family moved two years ago. My
dad owns his own business, and since the move he has not been
successful in establishing his business. My mom has taken a pay
cut of over half of what she was making. Our family income, which
was up over $40,000 is now less than $20,000. Because of this
drastic difference, my family is having trouble paying bills let alone,
a child in college.
Concordia University is a private Christian (LCMS) school and with
being a private school. the tuition is much more expensive.
Choosing to attend CUNE, was one of the greatest decisions of my
life. My parents are trying their best to support me, but because
of my college choices, it is difficult. All I would like to do is lessen the burden of my tuition on my parents.
I get a little financial aid from my school, but it is not near enough
to close the gap we have to pay. We filled out the FAFSA and it
said that we could afford less than $500.00 to my higher
education. My school's tuition/room/board is just under
$23,000.00. I have received, at the most, $10,000.00 in
scholarships, loans, and grants. That leaves at least $12,500
difference that my family has to come up with each year so that I can
continue my education.
I plan to become a teacher. I want to become certified as a Lutheran teacher (that is why I chose CUNE).
I am double-emphasizing within my education major.
Double-emphasizing means that I can teach more than one thing within
the elementary school system. My first emphasis is Physical
Education (PE) and my second is Early Childhood Education. Both
areas are in need of teachers.
