Education by Daniela - April 2015 Scholarship Essay

Education is the basis of a person’s future. Having an education can lead to such great successes along the road. Even if it is small, having that knowledge can open so many doors in the life of one. For example, nowadays many careers require some sort of college degree. This encourages students to keep going to school in order to get their desired career.

Both of my parents have some college education but they never got a high degree. They both regret it so much. They wished they could go back to school but with work and kids they sadly cannot. Seeing my parents struggle in some financial situations really reinforces the vast importance of continuing your education. Yes, it will be expensive and hard, but if you finish it will pay off. Having to get loans might seem horrible at the time but if you get your desired job after getting your degree, you should pay it off in no time.

Education leads to success no matter what way it is looked at. Have a solid education behind you will open up so many more careers than if you just stopped at high school. I feel like this should be really emphasized into children’s minds because this could even reduce them from not finishing high school thinking that it’s enough. It is not. College scares many, but the opportunities it gives you afterwards are worth it.

Continuing education is greatly important and everyone needs to see this importance because of the colossal amount of benefits you get towards your future.
