I plan on attending Hardin-Simmons University in the fall of 2017. Hardin-Simmons University will provide me with the opportunity to grow personally, academically, and spiritually. With the university being small in class size, I will become more than just part of a statistic. At HSU, entering students are seen as new members into a family. A family that will join me in my victories, help me when I struggle, and be there when I am having a rough day.
HSU will provide me with opportunities for me to grow in leadership and serve the community. This college offers clubs such as Circle K and Student Government. Their missions are to serve on the campus and community while developing leaders with a lifelong commitment to service. HSU also offers
I would hope to allow myself to distinguish myself from other students and make myself more prevalent and outstanding in my specific classes. As I would like to purse a degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology, I would like to become an ‘All around Psychologist’ dabbling in numerous sections of the ‘Psychology life.’ It is my belief that this HBCU would give me all mental and educational tools that will aid me in being the best in my chosen field. It is not that I do not like the educational system at my current university, it is just that i feel as though I can excel beyond measures at my new university coming this Spring.
The main component I look for in college is their commitment to further my studies. I feel this college will provide an ingenious culture within the science field, therefore rendering myself with the building blocks necessary to later pursue the medical field. Not only does UNCW devote itself towards their student’s undergraduate years, but also by providing Professional pathways such as Pre-Medicine, students such as myself can go into Professional schools better prepared. In addition to my interest in the academics the school has to offer, I also marvel at the amount of extracurricular activities available to the student body. One student organization in particular is the Greek Life. When my mother attended this school, she was an avid member
I would like to attend UTK because I heard that it is a great school. The student –faculty ratio is 17:1, and the school has 27.9 percent of its classes with fewer than 20 students. Most of their classes are 20-49 students, that’s the perfect size for me. The Vol Nation really cares about the success of their students and the quality of their education. They offer classes all day at any time and they also have summer courses. That’s a good thing because I’m an early riser and I could take my classes earlier in the day and have time to get all my work done. Since they offer classes during the summer I could take more
The type of education portrayed by the university is influenced by the international community. It gives students the chance to be inspired by different opportunities, like internships and clubs, to enhance the specialization of their degree of study. This makes the student more goal-orientated towards an education that will make them valuable and versatile for whatever job market they walk in to. As stated by the mission statement, this college will strive to, “Pursue opportunities to enhance personal wellness through artistic, athletic, or recreational activities,” and to “develop an infrastructure that makes learning accessible to those on campus and in our community and supports the scholarly activities of the faculty.”
My main goal while attending Baylor would be to achieve the best education possible and improve myself as a person, as well as grow stronger in my faith. I am looking to become a Pre-Nursing student and I have heard that Baylor contains one of the best medical programs in this area, prompting it to be on the top of my list of potential colleges. One of the main reasons i was drawn to Baylor is it’s strong Baptist roots. I am a strong Christian and I strive to be the salt and light of the world, as Jesus called us to be. I see great potential for Baylor to help me grow in my faith while also preparing me for my future career.
Because of this club experience, students will be better college candidates due to their leadership skills. Future success will be a topic we discuss, especially through application of skills we educate. Our focus is not service or diversity, rather educating students with the necessary skills to make a difference and be successful during and after high school.
Over the four years that I have spent at Good Counsel, I became part of many activities. Each helping me evolve as a person and become stronger yet. Simple lists could be made of every activity that I have ever been involved in but it could never express to a person what I have learned and how it helped me to grow. Every environmental club, science club, political science club, service work, and S.A.D.D. club I was part of had a very special message to deliver to me. Whether the message was one of responsibility, or a life lesson, I grew from it. The Political Science club opened me to many new experiences. It allowed me the chance to attend the Model U.N., where I was asked to address today's top world issues. This club was very beneficial to me because I was exposed to topics and ideas that I had not previously been able to discuss or learn about in a classroom situation. The science club allowed for me to experience extra educational situations as well. I took part in a hovercraft competition, which was very educational while also allowing me the chance to work with others for a common goal.
Meanwhile, I would transfer to attend the University of Texas at Arlington. Once I start the school year, I am going to surround myself with young people, who are motivated, caring and determined, too successful in their academics as well as their personal lives. I want to strengthen my communication skills, study harder, and improve my time management skills. And maintain myself there to obtain my Bachelor Science Degree and can go deeper and higher level status in my career field. I choose to apply to this Honors Program, because I like to be challenged and I work hard for what I want to
Chico State University is a school for a student that is in search of being successful in his/her life. It is a school that can open up a student and help them find what they would want to be, by providing the useful classes of tomorrow. These classes are top-notch and can keep people motivated to work harder, and to strive for their goal… And motivation is something that just about everyone needs.
My first impression of Union college was not so great as I remember first arriving to this college around mid-march and still seeing half-melted snow around the campus and also after driving through Schenectady, looking at the run down buildings and I imagined if I would ever be able to live in such a place. These questions are probably what a lot of incoming students have wondered when visiting the college for the first time, without even looking at the actual college itself and I myself felt prey to this incorrect judging. However, after arriving inside the campus and taking the tour my perspective changed and I actually felt as if I could belong to this college and my tour guide took us inside the Wold hall and after looking at how some
In college, I will also be exposed to new clubs and activities. I feel that club and after school activities can make a person more involved and give a person the right qualities to become a leader. Involvement in extra events has provided a balance for rigorous course study. With the pressures that college brings, I will probably want to be involved in many groups.
There are many benefits of student clubs directed towards students, instructors, etc. The benefits for students include developing leadership and self-esteem skills. Students also become acquainted with the community members, instructors, and students. The students also apply the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom in their club. Some other advantages are learning to work as a team and with people from different ethnicities. The instructors benefit from clubs by observing their students applying the skills learned in the club in the classroom and then challenge the students’ new skills.
College is a new experience for students. It is the point of a student’s life where they officially learn how to be an adult. Many people will tell students that its important to receive good grades while in college; however, its also important that students join an on campus college organization. College organizations can range from clubs associated with a students major for example Graphic Design, Computer Information Systems, Fashion design. Or it can be an organization that holds their interest which could be Fraternities, Sororities, and Step Teams. Students should join a college organization because it will allow them to network, it’s a resume builder, it will teach them real life experiences,
students leadership opportunities to run activities held at the program. Combining leadership opportunities, enhanced grades, and attitude towards school will also look great on a student’s college application, and increase a student’s chance of being accepted (Beck par. 15).
The expectations that I have coming to Flagstaff is having a great education at Northern Arizona University, meet a lot of new people in my four years here, and the new cooler climate here. I expect this university to teach me the business marketing ways so when I get out of college if I work hard I can be a successful business man. I chose to come to Flagstaff for school because of the smaller campus and school size. At any huge university you are just another face in the crowd but here the class sizes are smaller and you can walk to any class on campus. Also by spending the next four years in flagstaff I will meet a lot of new people. I plan on joining a fraternity this semester I will definitely meet a lot of new people by that and also have a lot of new experiences.
