Hi,
I am applying to scholarship within department and college. I am majoring in finance. They asked for an essay along with application to scholarship. I have to include my goals and aspirations and the essay should be around 150 words. I really dnk what to include in there. All I know that after getting my undergraduate degree, I want to apply to MBA at Harvard Business School. Do I have to include that too?

Thanks

Now it's time to get creative. One hundred fifty words is nothing, but make them memorable and shine more brightly than other essays.

Start with a zinger of a first sentence--"Who would've thought that that bratty little boy in kindergarten would someday ................" or "I never understood until recently why I always liked that Bible story about the widow and her jug of oil."

Actually, I never thought that I am going to be in US (I am from Russia) and study at one of the best universities. Yeah, I will think about starting like that.

Thanks, appreciate.

Can I start include attending graduate school as a goal too? (MBA)

Of course, but you have only 150 words to play around with, so keep it sharp and tight.
