I graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Economics in May 2013. The National Hispanic Business Group Scholarship has been much more than I could have possibly expected from any scholarship program. NHBG has taken me in and made me feel at home providing a space in which I can feel proud of my accomplishments in the company of a group of incredibly supportive people who looked like me. The group has given me the strength that I needed in many times of hardship as well as the financial support that my family needed throughout the past 4 years for my education. I do not think I would be as strong a person as I am today if I could not call this encouraging group of kind professionals my family.

I graduated from St. Francis College in May 2013. The National Hispanic Business Group scholarships enabled me to reach my potential in college, without worrying about paying tuition bills. I have been touched by the kindness and generosity of everyone at NHBG, and feel honored that I was selected as a scholarhsip recipient four years in a row. I will always be mindful of these great blessings, and would love to give back in any way possible.

I am truly honored to be a recipient of the National Hispanic Business Group Scholarship. The financial assistance provided is a great aid for my family and I and we are truly grateful and appreciative. I will be graduating from Montclair State University in May 2014 with a Bachelors degree in Business Administration/Marketing. Being a recipient of this scholarship makes me feel proud of my accomplishments so far and pushes me even more to succeed and reach my goals. Thank you once again for the support and generosity in allowing students like myself to have the opportunity of receiving such a great scholarship.

I will be graduating from the University at Albany State University of New York in May 2014 with a degree in Accounting. The National Hispanic Business Group Scholarship allowed me to pursue my dream of studying abroad to Brazil for an entire semester without having to worry about taking on extra loans to make the trip a reality. It felt great to be chosen for the scholarship and honored at the Gala in front of my family and numerous business professionals who I was able to network with afterwards. I was chosen to receive the scholarship during my final year of college but it could not have come at a better time as it has allowed me to make my final year a truly memorable one.
