I am going to go to college--some how. I am working as an intern for Atlanta City Hall--but am not getting paid. It's through TCU/Job Corps so you know how that goes....
I want to go to SCAD--Savannah College of Art and Design. Yesterday, I spoke with an admissions counselor and told him my goals--to open an art gallery that helps out homeless shelters. I want to eventually help out children who want to excel in the arts. I want to be the gallery that says yes to a child whose art sales could give them housing, schooling, and meet whatever needs possible.
I am in the process of obtaining my high school transcripts and can not remember what my GPA is--I just hope its a 3.0. You have to have that to get a SCAD scholarship and I plan to. I am also going to apply for FAFSA and the Hope Grant for Georgia. I should get one of those since I am in Job Corps.
I need around $35,000 which covers everything from housing for one year to a full year tuition.
I want this with every fiber of my being. I feel that with a foundation like SCAD behind me, then I will be better able to help others--especially homeless children.
