In this piece of essay, I would like to discuss about education and scholarship. Both of them are two important elements of development, mainly in human resource development. It is very clear that scholarship at one side plays major roles in assisting those unfortunate people. The synergy between scholarship and education is believed impact on capacity and resource development. In most developing countries, scholarship or funding is a must. It is real fact many people from low or middle income countries expect and compete for winning a prestige ones.
Well, yes, scholarship is very interesting. Back to my experiences, I had to compete for more than 50 times failure applications but it were priceless. I learned lots and they motivated me as well. Of course, I applied for prominent scholarships those offered me good financial support. Therefore, I experienced some sadly failures but at the end I was happy. I was truly believed years ago when I fought for a scholarship that it would be my only way to improve my educational capacity. I perceived that working very hard for the scholarship would ignite the higher self potential of mine. Therefore, through scholarship, I see education could be sharpen.
Competing for the scholarship is like looking for a diamond deep into the river, it is very hard and challenging. In fact, it needs lots psychological and motivational efforts. It is true that it is tiring most of the time. Indeed, it needs hard work and pray then God decides. Hunting for the scholarship remains most people thing to do after finishing their bachelor or master programs. Again, one way to see the world by scholarship. It is how it influences people to win and increase their educational ability and dignity.
I would like to share my beliefs on the impacts of scholarship on education.
Personal Image
When an talented individual won a scholarship, it means that he or she lifts the personal image. Scholarship may soar sharply positive personal image. It is how a single smart person would show his or her capacity. In addition, having the opportunity to win a prestige scholarship would much more guarantee the impact on future personal retrieval in the community. It is how therefore talented people would build and expect lot more from the scholarship winning in order to perform good image. By this, automatically the educational aspect will put personal image forward.
Personally, winning or being an awardee of a scholarship will boost the quality of individuals. Most of them would get lot positive impacts of what they learned from winning a scholarship. One thing, it will enlarge the experience. It is for sure that knowledge and experience both are going closely together. At last, scholarship would be able to combine education and experience.
Increase the Sense of Competition
Scholarship puts forward the value of competition of each personal participates in. Through the spirit of having further education, many brilliant young men and women joint the scholarship selections each year. This choice will promote the stance of competitiveness. Indeed, the opportunity to earn higher education would be much more challenging. Putting himself or herself in a scholarship hunting would increase the capacity of self determination of individuals. The high expectations or standards of certain scholarship determines of how difficult the competition is going to be. As a matter of fact, the preparation should be important. Most eager people would see any challenges as something to pass. Therefore, they would work very hard to achieve their goals.
Educational Travel
One of other very important good things of scholarship is being able to travel to the study destinations. Most students [scholarship winners] travel to western countries. This opportunity is very "expensive". It is very valuable of most awardees. While studying, winners also travelling. This is the best thing of having scholarship. You can do fun and interesting travels to places you like. It is somehow motivating people to compete and win a scholarship.
Travel internationally is an interesting experience. We can learn and see may good things. This is one way scholarship influences education both experience and knowledge. For most people, travel to different countries would also be very interesting in term of experiences to feel and see. By having the moments, people would value life differently. Therefore, travel during the study of scholarship is vital.
