 can clearly recall the earliest moments when the idea that I will want to pursue a career in dentistry in U.S.A first materialized in my mind. I was a young child, perhaps nine or ten, and I was to receive some orthodontic work at an office in Tehran, Iran, where I grew up. I had the same apprehensions as any person who comes in for oral care - will it hurt, what will happen, etc. The experience became transforming, however, when I marveled at the beautiful office, and the compassionate level of treatment I was given. The idea that this could be the kind of life I could pursue, that I could be this kind of professional, was a seed that was planted in my mind, and it only grew over time.

Iran is not a natural environment for a woman to spread her professional wings. Although the opportunity for pursuit of a professional degree existed, I knew I would have to apply myself twice as hard as the men in order to achieve success. With that in mind, I studied chemistry at Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran, achieving top scores, but my educational experience was not nearly complete. Years after those moments at the dentist’s office, my dream of pursuing a dental degree had not abated. I left Iran and pursued my dental studies at Semmelweis University in Budapest, Hungary, and it was there that my professional goals solidified, and it was also where I also discovered that I truly loved dentistry. It is my belief that I can enhance these skills and pursue my goals most fully by continuing my studies at the University of New York. I passed the national board exam of United States and got acceptance in New York University. The tutition fee of the 1st semester has been covered by my father, but now because of some family problem the tutiton fee of the spring semester cannot be carried out by him. I am on F1 (student) visa and I need co-signer to apply for student loan. Unfortunately he is not able to co-sign me since he has Iranian citizenship, but can make guarantee contract with the cosigner to ensure his/her financial safety. I have top grades in NYU, I am among the top students, therefore I am sure that this my way of life. I kindly ask you (as my last opportunity) to help me to complete my dream and finish my studies as a professional dentist.
