A Conversation on Data Science with Prof. David E. Culler

As an international student who's ineligible for financial aid at UC Berkeley, my family and I have always struggled with financially supporting my college career. In addition to being a full-time student in Astrophysics with extracurriculars and research, I had to work 20 hours/week to lessen the financial burden on my family. Therefore, when I received the call that I was awarded the Two Sigma Scholarship, I was beyond overjoyed. The semester that I received the scholarship, I was able to fully focus on my academic and professional growth without having to worry about how I was going to pay for my tuition every month. I finished the semester with a 4.0 GPA and two A+ grades, I submitted a paper for my research as a first author to a journal, I secured a new research opportunity for the summer, and I received an award from the Astronomy Department for being an "Astronomy major of excellent academic standing." It is with no exaggeration when I say that it was my best semester in college so far, thus I am forever grateful to Two Sigma as I couldn't have done it without the help of the Two Sigma scholarship.
