Building A Relationship With California Baptist University- Mba Program

As the bus entered the heavily guarded military instillation, I gazed upon the sign that read, "Be All that You Can Be." When the bus stopped, several angry Drill Instructors boarded and began introducing us to a very colorful vocabulary, usually reserved for drunken Sailors. They instructed us to gather our belongings, get off the bus and assemble in a circular formation. As I searched for the strength to get up, I found myself moving, while several Drill Instructors yelled at us for our clumsy attempt to dismount the bus and fall into formation. I wondered if I had made the right choice. However, I have come to realize that my military experiences have tremendously enhanced my self-worth. From those first eight

When it comes to success, you need to know what you're capable of and what you value. If I don’t get elected to the ROTC program at Colts Neck High School then, so be it. There could’ve been a good reason for it to be that way. School is not my only priority to think about, but I need to remember about my family and how they motivated me to get to where I am today. Not just them, but also my friends and teachers’ who told me to pursue your dreams and to follow my goals. Without them, I would not be where I am standing right

“The Credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena… who strives valiantly, who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotions, and who spends himself in worthy causes. Who, at best, knows the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat” by Theodore Roosevelt. I agree with this quote because if you don’t work hard for what you want or what you trying to do, who going to notice to give you and credit. It's okay to fail, knowing you did everything you can. In The Warriors Heart by Eric Greiten deserves a lot of credit for being a navy seal, going to college, exploring the world, helping aid workers heal orphaned children and lived in camps.

In May of 2005 I finally accomplished something that really meant a lot not only to me and my family, but to the people of the United States of America. Even while being in Iraq from April 2007 to November 2007 and losing a brother in arms while I was there I still felt honor. After finding out I will be a dad in June 2008 I became a Non Commissioned officer July 1st and a married man by July 2nd. Once August 2008 came I found myself saying yes to four more years. Once August 2012 came I was a well-established family man who became a marine vet who is instilled with nothing but honor, courage, and

There’s so many obstacles I’ve had to overcome. People have always doubted my success, due to my background. Yet, I’ve done nothing than prove their state of mind wrong. I’m a first generation student through high school to college. My aspiration is to be successful and be the leader in the pact.

The moment I strolled into the Marine Corps recruiting office was the first time I experienced conformity without any reluctance. Which turned out to be absolutely shocking since I spent my teen years doing the opposite of what was expected from me. I understood by joining the military, I would need to conform my expectations and beliefs in order to successfully enter and exit the Corps.

I have faced many obstacles in my life and have been through many hardships. However, I always overcome them in one way or another. For example, when I first walked the halls of Harlingen High School I entered as a shy but ambitions freshman with a lot of friends and unfortunately a lot of enemies. I was always put down due to play playing ability in band. I constantly tried to get better and better and that’s when freshman region auditions came along. I was excited to be able to actually compete with others so I can finally prove myself to my peers and teachers. I stumbled through my pre-audition and wasn’t able to audition and that killed me inside. I practiced so hard to not be able to audition. Although I was never any good I decided to

“The Few. The Proud.” is what the U.S Marines Service symbolizes. The Marines are founded mainly on standing together as a team, learning different strengths that are taught to them, finding the will to fight, and never backing down from a challenge. Aiming for strong and courageous men of any race are often the ones who can be encouraged to enlist in the U.S Marines. Any man can apply certain attitudes, traits, and characteristics to his personality to make him the best man for this service, which could make the outcome of this journey more surprising and shocking than when he turns out to challenge this obstacle from what he had ever imagined. The Marines is skilled to make a man become completely fit, trained, and ready to go into battle if ever needed on short notice. The U.S Marines advertisement’s primary vision is to have the most courageous men of any race who will develop mental ability of their own, gain confidence, trust, and pride in what they do, which will allow them to protect our people from all enemies. While succeeding in doing this, it creates a sense of confidence and pride in men who may come from unprivileged or different backgrounds.

I joined the Marine Corps looking for a challenge. I wanted to open doors for a new career and longed to have a positive impact on the world around me. Looking back five years later, I realize I found all that I originally sought, but I’ve also found something profoundly satisfying and meaningful that I never knew I was missing.

I am the beneficiary of the freedom our country affords its citizens and the aspirations of my immigrant grandparents and their children. The passage from Luke 12:48 ‘to whom much is given, much will be required’ is a credo that rings true. Our country has enabled me an education and other opportunities others don’t as readily have access to. Consequently, I can think of no better way to carry it forward than to elect a career in military service. In particular, via exploration of options, I identify strongly with the culture, tradition and career paths offered by the Navy, the only branch of service I am pursuing. Travis Manion’s motto ‘If not me, then who’ represents my fervent belief that it is my duty and privilege to

“All this for a guy?!” I thought to myself as I lay in my rack staring out the window at the night sky. It had been three days since I was able to sleep. Since departing home, there were days of signing papers, collecting uniform, getting yelled at by drill sergeants, marching here, marching there… of all branches of service I decided to join the United States Marines. My reasons were none other than to elope. Whether or not it was good for me to leave, I look at my life now and feel blessed and privileged, but I also wonder what circumstances I would find myself in or if I would have grown up had I stayed in my home town of Union City, California. To keep my family safe, to figure life out on my own and discovering faith are

From discovering my fascination with computers after disassembling my parent's x486 Packard Bell to cultivating my desire to lead and influence those around me as a member of Boy Scouts, I have always been someone with strong convictions. My penchant for military service and leadership are what precipitated my application to NROTC and the Naval Academy, resulting in my almost five years of Naval service thus far. These naturally-endowed passions have molded me into who I am today and are what motivate me to look forward instead of backward. Conviction drives me to place every ounce of effort I have into the project I am assigned or the mission I am charged with completing. Although it has occasionally caused me to learn certain lessons the hard way, my convictions have helped me to grow, develop, and improve the lives of others. As I prepare to cross the bridge into service with the federal government, I look forward to bringing this sense of passion and conviction to whatever job or post I might be assigned throughout this next

Over half of my life, I served in the United States Army. Promotions and accolades quickly tallied. Most experiences during this time involved benchmarks, achieving goals and heavy decisions that affect careers, quality of life and sometimes even life itself. Each decision is carefully weighed against the most likely outcomes and each outcome shapes my personality positively or

Ben Bates graduated from college six years ago with a finance undergraduate degree. Although he is satisfied with his current job, his goal is to become an investment banker. He feels that an MBA degree would allow him to achieve his goal. After examining schools, he has narrowed his choice to either Wilton University or Mount Perry College. Although internships are encouraged by both schools, to get class credit for the internship, no salary can be paid. Other than internships, neither school will allow its students to work while enrolled in its MBA program.
