An Application To The Principal For Grant Of Scholarship

The Principal,

                        Government College,

                        A.B.C.

            Sir,

                        With due respect I submit that I need scholarship to continue my    education.

My father is a retired govt. servant. His pension is very small and he does not have any other source of income. My brothers and sisters are also students. They are getting education on merit scholarships. My father is a heart patient, so he cannot do any job. He is unable to bear my education expenses.

            I, therefore, request you to grant me scholarship so that I may continue my studies. I promise that I shall do my best to get some position in the Board Exam. My previous academic record is excellent, and I have got good marks. 

                        I hope you will consider my request on sympathetic grounds.

            March 5, 2010                                                            Yours obediently,

                                                                                                         X.Y.Z.
