Nicholas's Thank You:

Dear NHAPL,

I am sincerely honored and very grateful to have been selected as one of this year’s NHAPL Scholarship recipients. With the cost of today’s education, the financial support from NHAPL is key to my success at Texas Tech while pursuing my Energy Commerce degree.  

Thank you for your generous financial aid, because of your scholarship I will have the opportunity to clearly focus and accomplish my academic goals, while at the same time significantly decrease my academic financial impact. I am thrilled to enter the Oil and Gas industry and one day also have the opportunity to give back to the community and assist others the same way NHAPL has done for me.

Sam's Thank You Letter:

Dear NHAPL:

I am honored to be a recipient of the NHAPL scholarship award. This scholarship is pivotal to the financing of my college education. Coming from a family with five kids, my parents and I work very hard to ensure I am able to pursue a college degree. This award will allow me to focus more on my academics and less on the increasing costs of tuition. 

It is exciting to receive a scholarship from such a reputable organization associated with the energy industry. I look forward to a career in the energy industry and this scholarship will certainly be something I talk about in energy-related job interviews.

Best,
Sam Jackson
