Oscar Said:

Is this good writing for my college essay?

We Answered:

Reading it, I can think of nothing more to add or adjust to make it sound better, though looks like a small typographical error with the comma between Spanish and English.

Olga Said:

Do students actually apply for scholarships or are most parents applying for them as if it is a student?

We Answered:

Yes, it is the students responsibility to apply for scholarships as well as do the admissions process themselves.

I see lots of potential college students and their parents... trust me... 30 seconds in a room with them and I can tell you who's going to complete the semester (without F's) and who's there because mom wants to keep them on the family insurance.

Talk to your kid, but don't do ANYTHING for them when it comes to college. There is a term called "Helicopter Parents". They "hover"... hence the term.
Read up on it., don't become one.. and let your kids become adults...
