For some people, it may be difficult to manage time in order to keep up with school and still be involved with extracurricular activities. However, for myself, this was not the case. I have been involved in the Slippery Rock University Winter Guard since my freshman year, which requires much dedication and commitment. Competing in local and even international level competitions across the country, the dedication required for membership in the guard is extraordinary. My commitment to the winter guard as well as my determination in my studies has allowed me to prime my time management skills to be successful in both areas without compromising the quality of my efforts in either one. Moreover, I have also been involved in numerous volunteer opportunities including Special Olympics, therapeutic horseback riding, and sled hockey. I also have a job at the Student Health Center. Although I keep myself very busy, I have managed to maintain an overall GPA of 3.5. Through my shadowing experiences in physical therapy, I have seen that some days can be fast-paced; therefore, it is important to have the ability to manage time in order to accomplish everything effectively and

I’m proud of my accomplishments thus far in my academic career as a result of making the right decisions in the challenging courses I take that have all been possible through organization and paying attention to my teachers. Through cross country and track, I’ve been able to meet amazing people who share the passion of running and are focused on making the best future for themselves. I’ve benefitted from being a self-motivated student to continue working hard in and out of the classroom. An essential skill I learned was how to manage my time better. As I continue to add activities to my schedule, I use a planner to make sure I am dividing my time evenly to academics and

Hello! (1) As a result of my high aspirations and work ethic, I believe my motto or what I stand for is: “Don’t let your dreams be dreams. Just do it.” Though I will admit that I procrastinate, if there is something that you want to do go out and do it. I took Floral Design because I was interested in making arrangements and the class is one of favorites I’ve taken throughout all of high school. (2) Over the years in high school I’ve participated in a wide variety of institutions including: Science Olympiad, Cross Country, Robotics, Peer Counseling, and creating a club with one of my friends. Having to be conscious of my time (and sanity), I no longer do Cross Country or Robotics because they were both time intensive. After being a part of

As a student who is not nearly at the precipice of adulthood, it is very challenging to lay down future plans that eventually, will dictate a crucial segment of your life. I, for one, not only speak for myself but for other students as well. Students like myself are quite dilatory when it comes to adhering to a respective future plan. Until the summer before my senior year, I was utterly indecisive about what career to pursue in college. During that

When searching for meaning or sense of placement it’s alright not to know what your purpose is, we all live life searching for our calling. What doesn’t break us only makes us stronger and each individual will take what life gives them and interpret it in their own way. We could have the same experience but interpret it in different ways. The struggles and hardships that I have had to go through as a man has changed who I am and how I perceive things. In my paper I would like to discuss my personal, academic and career related goals based on the way my life has been shaped so far.

Growing up in a small town has forced me to face many challenges. Some of them being small like trying to figure out what to do on a Friday night, but some were much larger challenges like, what do I wanna do with my education, and how can I further it. These many decision haunted me throughout my four years of high school. In high school I would be considered very involved. My high school career included sports, my studies, an active Warrior sports fan, and planning events within student council. Multitasking was the greatest tool I learned during my high school career. After high school I plan to attend a four year university to gain the experience and knowledge I will need for the real world.

Hi Everyone! I am Debbie and I am a returning student from many years ago. I have decided that it is time to finish that bachelor’s degree I did not think I needed back then.

The goals that have a high priority in my life are the ones dealing with academics and my strategies for completing these two goals deal with my grades. I would need to receive mainly A’s and very few B’s, as well as taking the required coursework for my major. I would also like to get involved in campus organizations, which I have done by getting involved in both Enactus and Impact. To obtain a position on the executive board in Enactus, I will start out as an active member, move up to a project leader, and then become a board member. Along with academics, I would like to further myself in my career by having an internship and a part-time job. My strategy to find a part time job is to use the resources the career center provides, such as the

I have consistently worked fifteen hours a week with respite word, balanced a job since sophomore year as the student assistant in the CSD department, served two terms as the treasurer of the American Sign Language Club, and have held two different executive positions in my sorority. Additionally, I was selected as a Chapter Crisis Advocate for my sorority from over 200 applicants. In this role, I completed training on sexual assault, eating disorders, substance abuse, mental illness, and healthy relationships in order to support and assist my peers in need. I have served in this role for the past two years. This has been an eye-opening experience in many ways and has confirmed my strengths in listening, providing advice, and being an advocate. Keeping busy with all of these activities has allowed me to develop exceptional time management skills necessary to thrive in graduate

Like any other education, college is important and allows us to explore and gain more experience about particular subjects.
