Recipient of the Robert Biesterfeld Family Marketing Scholarship
Malaysia

Receiving this scholarship has been a blessing in helping finance my studies as I pursue my degrees in Marketing and Public Relations. Being an international student, I am only able to work a maximum of 20 hours a week on campus and my parents have been struggling to help finance my education as the value of the dollar increases against my country’s currency.

Because of the generosity of my donor, the financial burden placed on me to pursue my education has been greatly reduced. This scholarship has enabled me to make ends meet and help me pay for tuition as I balance my schedule between school, work, and extra-curricular activities.

Thank you, donors, for your investment in Winona State and the futures of students like me.

Rosemount, Minn.

I am a full-time student in my third year here at WSU. I have a full schedule between two jobs, clubs and activities I’m involved with on campus. As an independent student it can be extremely tough to pay my student bill each semester with all the different expenses college brings. I’m beyond thankful to have received this scholarship and to know that there are donors that fully support my career goals and dreams. Thank you so much for awarding me with this scholarship! It truly means the world to me.
