Looking for scholaships

[ImLookingFor 10]

I'm 17 years old and currently wanting to study in America. The only thing that is stopping me is getting the financial support i need. I was wondering if there were anyone out there that knows or is a business owner who likes to aid students with their financial needs. I want to study film so i'm currently writing to the owner of every film studio known to man to try and get one step closer to my dream.

Thank so much guys

I think you might struggle to get somewhere abroad? There isn't much out there for students staying at home

 

Good luck in trying though!!

 

Is this any good?

Your title is missing an R.

If you send out letters asking for scholaships they won't even get read.

Unless it's for an employer in a relevant subject there's not many folks willing to shell out for a free holiday for someone else they don't know.

Wealthy relatives are your only chance.

No need for the sarcasm that isn't why I want to go....

So a better idea would be to get a film-associated job in the UK: gain experience AND funding at same time.
