"My career goal is to become a nurse practitioner and eventually open my own practice. The BSF's Employee Education Reimbursement Fund came as a breakthrough during my career journey. I had applied for a student loan that I was supposed to pay back with interest soon after my studies. When I heard about this scholarship, l decided to apply and fortunately the BSF did not let me down. I was able to pay a good portion of my student loan debt with this financial assistance, and now all my focus is on my studies rather than worrying about how l am going to pay for my education. If you were thinking twice on whether you should apply for this scholarship, delay no more, this is the time. Go for your dreams and BSF can make that huge difference in your life."
