Applying For College

I’m applying to UA Early College because I want to be able to step into college ahead of the game. I have been an overachiever since I was little and take each chance I get handed to me. This program additionally prepares me for courses I will take when in college. It gives a more profound understanding of how classes will be and the paces they will go at.

To me college is like the next step of life to adulthood; it is where you get a taste of the authentic world and learn how to adjust and manage on your own. In addition, it can be a place of magnification and polished skills within a community that strives for a prosperous life with an effulgent vocation. Thus, attending college was compulsory for me in order to reach future goals, and North Carolina A&T State University (NCAT) transpired to be just right for me. The distance was within range and they have an outstanding mechanical engineering program that I could solemnly benefit from. Overall, attending this university has opened many doors of opportunities that arrange with my personal and professional goals through their culture and community. Furthermore, I endeavor to put myself first and review my precedent accomplishments to strive for better while exposing myself to incipient challenges and obstacles.

Self- Discipline and scheduling effectively are critical factors when it comes to successfully managing your time.

In article “Want to get into college? Learn to fail”(2012) Angel B. Perez is vice president and dean of admission and financial aid at pitzer college in Claremont california.

Students and parents should begin to think about college when the student is in middle school or late grade-school. Beginning the college process early can prevent stressing at the last-minute and informs the student of all of their options. Even if the student is not looking at a specific college, they should start to learn the importance of college and how their life will change. Students should speak to a college guidance counselor about their future and know what colleges are looking for and how to build their résumé.

I’ve always been interested in the field of medicine. When I was being born, I almost died, being saved only by the ingenuity of a Nurse Day for whom my middle name is dedicated to. Above all else, I want to have an impact on the quality of life for others, and I think the University of Pennsylvania is one of, if not the, best ways to do that. Its bioengineering department is consistently ranked to be the most rigorous in the field, and I can handle rigor.

Ever since I can remember I have had an intense curiosity about the world and the people in it. This is probably due mostly to my parents who read to me nonstop but it has fuelled most of my learning experiences and given me a love of the world and of people, and the understanding of both of those. This love was further developed when I began four years of learning Attic Greek and Latin through a classical education. Then, after yearning to go overseas since I was eight years old and saving for it most of the time since then, I made it to England for six weeks this summer. Here my appetite for understanding is being indulged not just with words and pictures but with real world experiences which I can touch, see, and hear. Now, as I near the end of my stay, I am looking ahead to the rest of high school and I have decided I want to make the most of my junior and

First things first you have to narrow down your college choice list and pick your top five. Once you've done this, go ahead and apply. Applying for college isn't easy. In my experience, there is a lot of anxiety and pressure when it comes to college applications. A few minor tips to avoid the pressure are: to get things done early, have someone older (probably someone currently in college) proofread your applications, and try to avoid paying to send out ACT and SAT scores by having your top five picked out by junior year. If you do your college applications early you will avoid more than just pressure and anxiety. You will also avoid most of the fees, many of the essays and papers, and also the wait for your decision. Most schools

For the past two years I have maintained a part time job as well as being a full-time student. I have been promoted within my job due to the dedication that I have displayed during the last few years. Due to my busy work and school schedule I have not had the opportunity to become a part of any extracurricular activities. However, I hope to become a part of volunteer services during my time at SF State particularly with children because I have a desire to help children and the community as well as gain experience for my future career as a teacher. Attending college is important to me because I believe it is the best way for me to help others and myself.

Overall, I learned that getting into college is extremely difficult. People just can't go into high school and not care because it is crucial that a person does well. Right now I am doing extremely well in my academics. I learned that I have to get a plethora of scholarships, and also maintain my high academic standard. Getting a job early is key, which I'm the team manager for the College of Charleston women's basketball team, so I have a little bit of coaching experience. Tulane University will help achieve my goals of becoming a women's basketball head or assistant coach because I will be learning from the best coaches in the country. The business program will also teach me commutation skills and leadership skills, which are vital if I want

Ever since my brother came back home from Illinois State University with many positive comments about the college I have wanted to go there. He told me about all the different things one can do there, and how easy it was to make friends. He also talked about how great all his professors were. I was instantly intrigued by all the university has to offer in activities and academics.

If someone asked me where I am going to be in ten years, this would be my answer. I will have a great, high-paying job, and beautiful wife and family, and a nice sports car parked in front of my lovely house. When I look into the future, I see myself being successful and happy. Even though I always pictured myself this way, I never worried too much about how I would get there. I feel the Suffolk University can lay the groundwork for making these dreams into reality.

If one makes the decision to attend college, they are many steps to consider when beginning the process. Often times, steps are left out when someone explains what needs to happen. To some, this process does not need to be rushed. However, some believe that it needs to take place as soon as possible.

For the purpose of this essay the act of enrolling in college will be considered intelligent. Perhaps enrolling while under the influence of expectations, self-motivation, or etcetera may be a good idea considering the perks that come with it. These perks may include becoming thousands of dollars in debt, potentially becoming homeless, possibly becoming an alcoholic, losing countless hours of sleep, and constant starvation. It is this observation that may lead an argument stating that enrolling for college is, in fact, intelligent.
