"I am most grateful for my scholarship as a student-athlete. It not only made it possible for me to attend this great university, but also allowed me the opportunity to pursue my dreams of rowing for The University of Texas."
I come from a family of Longhorns. My parents and grandparents went to UT, so I grew up surrounded by Longhorn pride.
As a student-athlete, UT has been the perfect fit for me. From the start, my coaches, professors and athletic academic advisors have been incredibly supportive of every aspect of my college experience. They helped me transition from high school to college with ease and have been so helpful with everything from tutoring and nutrition services to career-building services. If there's anything I've ever needed as a student-athlete, Texas Athletics, and this university, has gone above and beyond to make sure I have what I need to be successful.
I am most grateful for my scholarship as a student-athlete. It not only made it possible for me to attend this great university, but also allowed me the opportunity to pursue my dreams of rowing for The University of Texas. I'm so grateful the coaching staff took a chance on me -- it makes me work even harder to prove that I was worth the investment.
Being a student-athlete at UT has also taught me how to handle the ups and downs of life whether from injury or having times when I don't perform as well in my sport. But being here, and through the support provided by Texas Athletics, I have grown so much already. I know I'll carry all the life skills I've learned with me for the rest of my life.
