Nisa Martinez ’12

It is with my sincerest gratitude that I write to thank you for helping Lynn University students with the Wold Endowed Scholarship. I appreciate your aid and was very happy to learn that I was selected as a recipient for your scholarship a second time.

I am currently in my second year and will be returning in the fall for my third year at Lynn University. It has been a very challenging, and at the same time, a rewarding experience. I expect the knowledge I have gained will prepare me for the art industry. Thanks to your generous contribution to my education I have been able to maintain a GPA greater than 3.5. I have also reaffirmed my status on the Dean's List for another year. It is an accomplishment I feel very proud of. Since I am part of the Lynn Degree 3.0 program, I will be receiving my undergraduate degree in graphic design in spring 2012. I am grateful for my education every day and I enjoy what Lynn has to offer. I still want to pursue a master's degree in graphic design and since I have a passion to create stories, I am still determined to become a graphic novelist.

Receiving the Wold Endowed Scholarship has lightened my financial burden and allows me to focus more on the most important aspect of college – learning and becoming prepared for what lies ahead. I hope to one day have the ability to give something back to others just as you have helped students to reach their goals.

Thank you once again for your support in these hard times.
