Why do you want to go to college? by Jamarion - November 2023 Scholarship Essay

As Youth of the Year of North Alabama for the Boys and Girls Club, I should be setting an example and being a leader to others. My values are exemplary in that I am dependable, committed, a role model, and genuinely motivated to provide high quality among all of my pursuits/ involvements. My leadership skills have been present in church, school, Boys and Girls Club, and among my peers. I promise to apply those leadership skills at the Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering. I am held to a standard higher than most as a student at ASCTE. As a 4th year student at ASCTE, I recognize the importance of such a position and the responsibilities that follow it. My admission to ASCTE was based on administrative belief in my academic potential, past leadership, leadership potential, and demonstrated ability to excel in professional and educational settings. I promise to continue to positively impact our community, emulate the expectations administrators have of an ASCTE student, and show that my leadership sets the direction for other students to follow.

I am a 17-year-old entrepreneur who attends the Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering. I have my own clothing brand called “Baller From The Ville.” Baller From The Ville is a brand I made sitting in my bed. It means to never forget where you came from, no matter where you are. This brand has grown tremendously. I believe that I can represent the youth of America by sharing my knowledge and skills with others. I planned to take this clothing line far alongside mechanical engineering and hopefully make it worldwide to inspire others to be themselves. This inspiration to become an entrepreneur at this young age has allowed me to meet mentors and important people to give me tips and help me grow my business.
