I wish to begin by thanking you earnestly for supporting the 'Jonathan Giver Scholarship for Academic Excellence' and for choosing me as one of its recipients for this academic year. I am immensely grateful as I am certain this scholarship will grant me access to several opportunities that I sincerely intend to avail myself of. I am wholly dependent on student loans, financial assistance and grants for funding my higher education. Thus, this scholarship is a welcome relief that will decrease my financial challengesas I pursue further studies (SDSU, n.d).



I have always aspired to graduate from San Diego State University. It is here that my parents met one another as students, and I remember my vacations in high school when I used to visit San Diego and this campus often with my parents to attend basketball and football matches. I am a resident of Bear Valley, California, where I attended high school and graduated top of my class. I belong to the Gamma Sigma Alpha sorority.

I intend to become a filmmaker after graduating from university (SDSU, n.d).



I was born in Lahore, Pakistan where I spent only the first three years of my life.
