Sample Scholarship Application Letter
Banking and Finance Department,
University of Professional Studies,
Accra-Ghana.
10th December 2020

US Embassy, Accra
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Kwame Kofi Gyeketey, a third-year student/ graduate of the University of Professional Studies Accra, Ghana.
I am currently pursuing a five-year Bachelor of Banking and Finance Degree, and hope to pursue a two-year master’s degree after graduation.
I have served as a volunteer with the Human Rights Reporters Ghana to provide financial literacy to low-income homes to help them manage their finances and develop good investment culture.
This broadened my understanding of Banking and Investment and how the low-income earner can be assisted to build up investments and come out of the poverty line.
My education is largely focused on this mindset: function over form, stability over showmanship. I have enrolled in several classes that crossover to Banking and Finance as well as short courses on how to serve as a volunteer in NGOs to help humanity.
I want to become a useful asset to society’s less privileged and to create accessible, affordable banking products, an NGO to help deal with problems faced by the poor and underprivileged communities.
I would be grateful if you could consider me as one of the beneficiaries of the scholarship opportunity.
I appreciate your consideration. With your assistance, I can continue my schooling in Banking and Finance and build my NGO knowledge and capacity to bring accessible banking, financial literacy, and support to those in need.
Yours sincerely,
…………………..
Kwame Kofi Gyeketey
