Part B
Goal
During your education you will most likely be writing a Personal Statement. This could be for a scholarship or applying for transfer to a university. For this assignment, I’d like for you to consider applying for scholarships/transfer and to write your Personal Statement needed when applying for scholarships/transfer.
Every semester, Cuyamaca and Grossmont offer scholarships in which there is a deadline to apply. There are also outside scholarships to apply to as well. Every fall semester, many students apply to California State Universities (CSU), University of California (UC) and/or private schools for transfer. At some point in your educational journey, you will need to write a Personal Statement.
