Allegany High School Analysis

During my time at Union County College I have been faced with a lot of difficulties. I’ve struggled along the way but one thing I do believe is that I have the power to do better. My GPA has been affected by my personal mistakes. In my past semesters I have let my job take over my life rather than let school be most important. I have also let my personal family problems affect my work ethic. But through my fall 2014, it was most difficult because of March 2014 I lost my father through an unexpected heart attack. Throughout my fall semester I did struggle and cope with my father not being here anymore. I believed that I wasn’t focused enough because I used fall semester as a time to occupy myself rather that time out to deal with my father’s

In my conclusion I’ve come to realize that going to college is one of the best decisions you can make in your life and finishing college is an even grateful feeling, in my spare time I talk and advice my friends to go school and get a better education because it can help you in the long run, so I won’t be a dummy ill stay in school and now I’m following my own advice. So I’m proud of myself for getting another chance at it with Ashworth College and I’m willing to work hard to get what I

With this letter to you, I urge you to please hear me out and help me. I do not have the money to attend UCONN because of my family’s financial situation. The aid I received was a blessing and gave me the opportunity to follow my dreams and make my parents proud. It was the main driving factor for me going to UCONN as I pay for school myself. I had worked all summer and had planned to take whatever the difference was once financial aid was factored in and pay for it with my hard earned money, but now I will not be able to do that because of a miscommunication with my father and my mental illness. If I am granted financial aid, I will do whatever it takes to overcome

I am writing to you to appeal the Financial Aid Status I am currently placed under. Although you may not know me, if you look back at my grade history, this is not the student I am. I am a student who strives to work hard, and to do the ultimate best of my abilities. I usually beat myself up over homework and test grades. Throughout my career at Minot State University, my GPA never fell below a 3.70, I have been on the Dean’s/President’s Honor Roll since Fall of 2015. The only problem semester I have had previously was my first semester as a Freshman, and that was all about how I adjusted to college. After that first semester; I have only strived to reach my goals, and have worked tremendously

I faced academic adversity when I moved to the United States in July 2010. I failed to enroll at the University of Colorado in the fall of 2010 because of lack of sufficient funds. I tried to process loans but could not process any loans because I didn’t have a Permanent Resident status at that time. I had no family or close friends that I could borrow money from since I had just moved to the United States. My desire to accomplish my goal led me to start looking for ways to pay for college. I had the drive, determination, patience and a positive attitude so; I started collecting enough funds by working several jobs. A year later, I enrolled into the university and could only afford to register for a three credit hour class. I was persistent

I’m a former student of O’Connell High School, going there for almost all my years in high school. Recently I had graduated and attended Stephen F. Austin State University. Coming from a college preparatory school, I felt that I would be antiquity ready for college. But I was severely wrong about this. Leaving the school and attending my first college classes, I barely knew how to write a proper essay. I had no clue what APA or MLA format even was when asked to use it. My knowledge of things like Algebra, History and Politics and Government were vastly below what those of my peers were. In my economics, we watched American Sniper. If baffles me how the school could let teachers show movies like this, just because they chose to that day. My

Harrison High School suspended a student for being patriotic? They say it all has to do with Ms. Narwin? Since the beginning of school Philip Malloy has hated his teacher Miss Margaret Narwin. He tells his parents and friends that he doesn't like her, but most of his friends such as Allison Dorsett love her and say she is a great teacher. Things start to get ugly when it's track season. Philip gets a poor grade in English, Miss Narwin’s class. Lies are told and Miss Narwin’s reputation gets damaged.

I realize if I am going to succeed it would take much more effort and time to achieve better grades. After the suspension my grades improved tremendously, I intended not to get another suspension because I knew I had goals that I wanted to complete. Although I would be still working, I would be able to balance work and class. I would be able to dedicate more time studying and being a more activate participants in class. I would have more time to focus on one class instead of trying to focus on 3-4 classes and work two jobs. As you can see, over time I pulled my GPA from a 1.33 to a 2.63 which means I can easily attain a 3.0 or higher for each one of my classes that I will take in the future. It was a long time coming to receive my Associates and Bachelors and I know this is should have been done a long time ago. The time is now because I am definitely focused on becoming a project manager to collaborate and help someone else visions come to life. After researching project management, I definitely feel this is something that I can be successful and where I see my

Our mind is the gateway to new beliefs, ideas and culture. However, that can never be achieved without a challenge, a push. If I did not care about my education I would not be applying to Whitney M. Young Magnet High School.

After leaving the Youth Re-Engagement Program I kind of drifted for a while in what I wanted to do with my life and how I could improve it. Over the past year I’ve made some interesting choices and most made me a better person and I’m happy with where I am. I don’t have many regrets as I did when I left and it’s a second chance hopefully to go back to school. I have racked up some debt that I’d like to repay, not money wise, though I’m human and there is some of that too! Through the year I’ve had a lot of luck on my side to the point that I can even write this letter. It’s been a dark year and I’m ready to come out of it better than ever. Currently, I work with Starbucks and make coffee and

Right now I am almost halfway through my senior year of high school, I am attending Laurel Concord Coleridge High School in Nebraska. I live in a small town called Coleridge. I have participated in volleyball, basketball, and track all through high school, I feel like I have demonstrated leadership skills in sports and in the classroom. In sports I am always trying to encourage my teammates and make sure they know what to do. If one of my teammates comes up and asks me a question I am always more than happy to answer it for them. I have also demonstrated these particular skills in the classroom. If I am in a group for a group project I make sure everyone knows what their part is in the assignment. I also help students who ask for it on their homework. Whether it is a teammate or another student

When I was younger I went to El Dorado Elementary School. When I graduated In 2007 I then started homeschooling in the 6th grade, It was very different from public school. I had a teacher that was very nice and very patient with me, She knew that I was struggling with my work and I just could not understand why I wasn't able to do the work. I started to think that I had a learning disability or just wasn't smart. My teacher recommended an easier alternative which was online homeschooling. My parents thought it would work for me but unfortunately it didn't. I did this from 6th grade to the 12th grade. It made me lazy because I felt like I could always do my work later. Teachers would always called my parents to tell them that I wasn't doing

You have transitioned to and from private seamlessly, and we hope that this will serve you well in college and beyond. In a nutshell, you are every parent’s dream - Joyful, Brilliant, Caring and Selfless, Courageous and Strong . Sometimes you are a bit of an ‘absent-minded professor’ with disorganization and loss of focus, but you are still quite a gem. I believe that if you set your mind to it, there is NOTHING that you cannot achieve. I am expecting and hoping for great things from you in this

During high school my mother suffered from two minor strokes, a benign brain tumor; she still has slight paralysis. When this occurred during my junior year of high school my grades didn't turn out as well as I wanted them to. I made my mother's well-being my main focus. I knew that my half-brother wouldn't be able to help take care of my mother since he worked and lived in Texas. I took on the responsibility to take care of her and the two flat income property that we live in. I still take care of her presently and that is why I chose to attend Oakton Community College, until her health stabilized. I have been able to stay focused at Oakton with the help of the staff at Oakton and my mother’s health improvements. I have learned from the faculty

The circumstances that caused my suspension was me being young and dumb. I was in 11th grade and I thought I should save some money and become a PSEO student. At first I was doing great, but as the courses went on I started to struggle and I did not request any help. Even when one of my teachers offered help I did not listen to her and I ended up failing my first class. When that happened I was nervous talking to my parents, because of my laziness I have to disappoint them. I tried to hide my failing grade, but they found out and they decided I can no longer do PSEO. Me being lazy made my GPA fall and any huge scholarship chances I had were no gone.
