鈥淭his scholarship truly means the world to me as it allows me to travel to a location I have always dreamed of visiting, Sweden. In the fall, I will be studying business at Uppsala University, Sweden鈥檚 oldest university. This experience will allow me to complete an essential requirement into receiving my certificate in Global Business through CU. But for me, its not just business, I am also so excited to embrace and explore the rich culture and history of Sweden. Without the Buffs Abroad Scholarship, I don鈥檛 think I could embark on this amazing adventure! 鈥

I would like to formally thank you all for funding this amazing opportunity and journey I am partaking in. This journey is going to be a scary one as I am a first-generation student from a low-income family, so cost is a huge decider for many decisions. Additionally, since costs are so high, I wasn鈥檛 able to live on campus and had to commute from my parents鈥 house. To be able to receive this scholarship will not only make me less worried about the cost but also allow me to be independent as I will be living on my own, nonetheless in a different country. This will be an astonishing experience for me to learn and grow as a student and a person and it is thanks to you. Thank you so much for helping me fund my endeavors and I hope to represent CU Boulder well! SKO Buffs!

鈥淭he Roaming Buffs Scholarship is an invaluable contribution toward my study abroad journey. Initially, I didn't think that studying abroad could be affordable for people like me, but this scholarship will help make it possible. I believe that learning in a foreign country is one of the most transformative and valuable experiences that a person could have, so I am immensely grateful to get to have that experience. I know that studying in Sweden will enable me to profoundly grow as a person and student, build cross-cultural resiliency, and become more competitive for future career opportunities.鈥
