College Goals

I set a goal to further my education by enrolling in college before I turned twenty five. I was on call 24 hours a day as tow truck driver at the time not leaving me time to meet the time frame of that goal. I did not completely give up on that goal and have currently met it. The reason I was eventually able to reach this goal is my unwillingness to give up on the things that are important to me. Even if things don’t go exactly how you plan you should not give up on

I want to learn as much as I can in college. The Honors College program would allow me to extend my knowledge and to continue learning beyond a major and not be limited to one department. I pride myself for my very diverse schedule of classes throughout my years in high school. I make sure I always have electives, like art, or even a business class. By being a part of the Honors College I hope to continue taking diverse and interesting classes that I wish my high school offered but does not have the resources a college does. My goal is to have a well-rounded education in order to enjoy my college years as well as prepare me for success in the future.

My goals after college is to come out and feel satisfied with the things I've learned and to also come out and easily find a job. I think selecting film as my program with help me achieve these goals. I've always been interested with film making and have always loved making them. Ever since I was young I would always find myself making videos or movies with friends, and I was always the one that would come up with the ideas. I feel I will have a greater chance of getting the a job if I am a graduate of North Carolina State University.

My passion is to serve my community and volunteer through organizations such as Girl Scouts: we clean a cemetery, serve food to the homeless every Thanksgiving Day, and wrap presents for children during Christmas break. Through H.I.S. Bridge Builder’s, I help feed and clothe underserved communities. In the San Antonio chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, whom I am the president, we go to Morgan’s Wonderland to sing to disabled children, serve Thanksgiving dinner at the annual Jimenez Thanksgiving dinner and we have annual back to school give away to our local schools.

There is a saying in society “if you are poor you will stay poor.” The United States have said “You have the freedom of changing your classification in your social status.” People close to me have said “as long as it’s something you want, anything is possible.” With the given information, the choice I’ve made was to change my written destiny and make my mark on earth. The path I am willing to take isn’t to benefit my life, but to give back the people who gave me everything I could ever ask for.

When the nurses first laid their eyes on me as I was born, I am not sure what potential they saw in me – all two pounds and a couple ounces of me. At four months, my mother and father adopted me, and as I matured, my parents enlightened me with the use of books, films, religion, and art. They were not the richest couple in the world, but still insisted on making up for it with firm, unwavering support. Now that I look at the prospects of my future, I am eager to pronounce my college goals. Any outside aid that could be granted to me would surly allow my academic plans to run far more smoothly.

With the education I plan on pursuing, mechanical designing is a major part of mechanical engineering. Learning and creating designs for machine parts will help build my knowledge, experience and appreciation for the parts that people have spent their time and efforts to create. After, completing college I plan on entering into a career that is surrounded in mechanical designing, for either a small automotive car company or a factory that designs part for machines. Then build my experience in hopes of working in a bigger and more profound company like Buick. These are my goals in attending college, and I know they will only remain goals unless I put time and effort in the classroom, as well as outside school to make those goals into

Getting an M.S.BA degree from McCombs serves the purpose of achieving my short term goal: to work as a consultant or business analyst. The reason I want to work in such positions is because of the steep learning curve, I can be exposed to various kinds of cases and learn how to solve problems professionally. This is a to prepare for my long term goal: become an entrepreneur myself in helping startups with data analytics and decision making.

The passion that drives me to wake up early , to attend school and take five classes. Work up to 40 hours a week or more, are my dreams,my determination and a plan to receive my degree from an “AA” up to PH.D. I would have to believe in myself to accomplish these plans. My second dream is to move out of South central/Watts , where the youth are dis courage to exceed in school just because “it is not socially accepted” .(Courage To Learn, Daniel Ortega) I'm repeatedly seeing friends and foes falling deeper to addictions , in and out of jail, it's just like a cycle they seem to not break away from . The worry that I have is getting involved something negative, that can possibly would stop me from attending school, besides that nothing else

I definitely do, I think that the degree has been one of the goals I have had in mind for the longest time; however, do to the lack of time and lengthy steps to finish college, we can get frustrated and step back for a bit, so that our comeback is stronger. On the other side, once that tree is planted and fully grown, I will look back and see that it wasn’t that difficult (hopefully soon).

As high school juniors, most of my peers and I have one common goal ahead of us. After taking countless standardized tests, getting our permits, passing drivers ed, junior prom, senior year, graduation and our last summers at home, our, now, common goal is College! Most of us have the grades and passion to get us where we want to go, but is it enough? Will our romantic thoughts about ourselves get us through the hardships of transition, or will we be held back by negative thoughts clouding our visions about the doubts that we ourselves, have in ourselves? Will we think about how things will actually be, or think of them how they could be?

For the next several years, I have set different goals for myself. I have set educational goals for high school and college, professional goals for a future career, and personal goals to improve me as a person. Setting goals allows me to focus on what I am working toward. Having a plan will help me achieve my goals. By working hard and staying on the right track, I am going to meet my goals.

As college freshman rapidly approaching the end of my first semester, now would be a really good time for me to develop a long-term game plan. Until now my goals have been immediate and short term. Those goals are to get into college and start taking classes. Mission accomplished. Now what? I need a game plan that prepares me and assists with getting a career that will shape the course of my life. This problem is complex and will need my full attention. I need to select a college major that I find interesting and can excel at. This college major will be critical to obtaining a rewarding and fulfilling career that I may be spending the next forty years of my life pursuing.

My short-term college goal is to transfer to a 4-year college in order to pursue my main goal which is to get a Master’s degree in Civil Engineering. One of my goals is to maintain a minimum 3.8 GPA in order facilitate my transfer to NJIT. Although, I am accepted in NJIT until Fall of 2018, if the opportunity is given I would like to aim for a higher-level school. My long term goal would be to obtain my degree in Civil Engineering and pursue a higher education level like a

From the time a person grows up, they are constantly being asked, “What do you want to be when you’re older?” or “Do you have any goals or aspirations?”. Of course, at a young age, a child could say, “An astronaut with purple hair,” and it is entirely acceptable. As time moves on questions, become more prevalent, and the innovative child response will not cut it. Throughout adolescence, teenagers are pressured into having a solid game plan for their goals; which is not always the best way to go. In high school, I was able to achieve a self-rewarding goal that never once crossed my mind. Often times it is not the aspirations we are forced to make, but the unexpected ones that have the most impact on our lives.
