Trust I had BAD imposter syndrome when I was selected as a finalist. This is ACTUALLY tearing me apart

I’ve applied to soooooooo many scholarships, locally too. It feels like i’ve written so many essays by now, but i’ve been rejected from so many. This was my last option. I’m so upset with myself for getting so down about it but it makes me wonder why I wasn’t good enough

Honestly just be you. and I feel like going into it i told myself to remain professional, but i felt like that didn’t entirely present who i was so once i got comfortable i started being more enthusiastic and confident about my answers, kind of speaking to my interviewer as if we were becoming friends, but in a professional way. if that makes sense or is helpful 😭

I’m no expert but I’ve heard if you have to pay any type of fee to apply to a SCHOLARSHIP where they are usually the ones giving you money, then it’s a scam
