so i have applied to different scholarships to do my masters the problem is that i haven't got any!! except one offered by the dean of the faculty of foreign languages at my university. the problem is that i wanna study English language and Literature in England or the USA but i cant seem to get a scholarship!!
here is my personal statement plz let me know what do u think.. am i a good candidate to get a full tuition scholarship? and if so can u tell me where can i apply to get one?
After graduating from high school and earning a full tuition scholarship from the Ministry of Higher Education, I enrolled in the University of Jordan, majoring in English Language and Literature. I hold the excellent rank with a GPA of 3.65.
I am thoroughly enjoying the experience, since literature has always been a subject that I have excelled at and found incredibly gratifying. Over the past three years, I have become extremely interested in analyzing, interpreting and critiquing different works. I have become more confident in expressing my opinions, engaging in group discussion, and exploring different ideas and approaches to literature.
After reading many plays written in Arabic, English and other languages at school, I wrote, directed and acted in my own play, for which I earned a national gold medal in stage acting. My favorite playwright, putting Shakespeare aside, is Ibsen; I find his plays, such as Ghosts and Hedda Gabler, to be perfectly plotted and written.
My love of writing led me to write for my university's newspaper. In doing so, I focused on learning languages by interviewing international students and professors who teach English, Arabic and modern languages. This passion for languages has also led me to many diverse extracurricular activities. For the past three years, I have participated in the Language Club, Conversation Club and the Language Partner Program, by which I have gained communication, oral and social skills. Helping non-Arabs with Arabic helped me to have a better understanding of the Western culture and its background, and to improve my cultural understanding of English life and history.
I have a longstanding commitment to volunteer work. For several years I have held the position of organizer in Zaha Center for Children, which enabled me to further improve my leadership skills. Besides volunteering to help children, I have always been interested in protecting the environment by participating in different activities and earning many letters of thanks from various organizations such as the Jordanian Environment Committee.
On the whole, I believe myself to be a dedicated, self-disciplined, and sociable student, although I can be a bit over competitive at times. I am sure that studying in the United Kingdom is going to benefit me greatly as it will enable me to gain valuable life skills and the chance to develop my potential. By studying in the UK; I'll have the opportunity to travel, meet new people, experience new cultures and above all, gain the skills, qualities, confidence and the education needed to have a productive career in my homeland.
