DBU Personal Statement

Dallas Baptist University has been at the top of my college enrollment list for quite some time. I fell in love with the campus after my visit in November of 2015. The chapel was the number one thing that caught my eye. The beauty and the structure was just breath taking. I could see myself attending the services and worshiping along with newly made friends. I have been in contact with a current student at DBU, and she has been very helpful in answering my questions and encouraging me to attend the college. There are many reason why i would love to go to DBU. First, the school is very diverse, and it will be nice to see so many different personalities and cultutes around the campus. Second,

A community is an abode to many personalities, drives and lifestyles. Both the inhabitants within the community and the community itself benefit from the multiple personas. Florida State’s Community will benefit me by learning from brilliant, successful and innovative, teachers, fellow students and alumnus. On the contrary FSU’s community will benefit from me because I am resilient, a hard worker, and I interact with the community. These qualities have been acquired mainly by my parents and they are the reason I am the person who I am today alongside the volunteering activities I was able to be a part of.

Growing up as a non-denominational Christian and still consider myself one. Over the past few years I have no attended church as often as I should. I am hoping to get back into applying my Christianity to everyday life and I’m hoping that CCU will help me with that. My mother attended this school to receive her Bachelors degree and only had great things to say about it. We were speaking a few weeks back how I have been striving to get back to my religion and have not had motivation to do so. She suggested attending CCU so that I can start learning to apply my religion to nursing. So here I am, ready to learn. As a nurse I have an opportunity to have a huge influence on many lives. Not only medically, emotionally, but spiritually. My patients

I am a disabled father of 6 children, attempting to discover a way to keep up with societies rapid pace. I am educated in several vocational skills, but the visual disability I live with deters me from practicing successful employment at the labor levels of my experiences. By pursuing a degree in business administration more doors will be potentially open for me to explore operating a business of my own as a sole-proprietership. However, tuition for school seems to be a potential setback from getting started. Operating a self-sufficient green farmer seems like the route of business that I will be able to manage. With the curriculum I have my abilities to handle most operations has already increased. I have already achieved a gain in my self-awareness from achieving excellent grades. If possible, furthering my education goal to include additional courses may help in developing my business plan.

I am applying for admission into the UW BSN program, where students are enrolled typically for eight quarters over two years. My inspiration is my mother, who is a master’s prepared nurse. For years, I have observed her using her clinical knowledge in order to maintain the health of my brother, who has unstable epilepsy. My mother’s passion and competency in her practice of nursing have inspired me to become a nurse. Since graduating from this university with a BS in Molecular Cell Biology, I have gained two years of healthcare experience as an emergency department volunteer, as well as certification and employment as a nursing assistant. Both of these experiences have augmented my desire to become a nurse. One aspect of nursing that resonates with me is my ability to connect with patients through empathy and communication, in particular to assist them through their grieving processes, as they cope with changes to their health. I believe that my nature of wanting to help those that are sick will help me to fulfill those roles. My scientific curiosity along with a background in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology and pharmacological research, which earned me the Mary Gates Research Scholarship and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute internship, will also be beneficial, when

After graduating from high school, I plan on attending South Dakota State University in Brookings, South Dakota, to major in Pharmacy. SDSU’s program, one of the most awarded in the nation, requires six years of schooling to obtain a Doctor of Pharmacy, commonly known as a Pharm.D. The first two years of school are a general science heavy curriculum of pre-pharmacy. The next two years of the program dive more in depth into pharmacy related classes. During the final two years, I would attend classes at SDSU’s campus in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to learn more hands-on in hospitals and with better resources.

Through my experiences I have become an empathetic, understanding, and a respectful person. My outlook at life is unconventional, liberal, benevolent, filled with curiosity, and a constant search for beauty in things around me. I am someone who is passionate about making a positive contribution to society. I also dedicate myself to everything and anything I find myself doing.

As you know, I was one of your favorite students but I didn’t get to actually tell you my story. When my two sisters and I lost our mother to breast cancer, I was only seven years old. It seemed like immediately after her death my loving and grateful father remarried. I struggled with reality for years and I felt lost. By the time my twenty-first birthday came I was pregnant. I had little knowledge on anything. Honestly, I missed out on my mother’s reliance on God including her guidance. There were periods of hardship until I finally cleared my mind. I started to listen to my step-mother’s military ways and I took action. I started my education with my dreams in mind and enrolled at Parkland College.

There are a number of reasons why I have decided to commence a Bachelor of Nursing at CDU. I have been working in the aged care system for a number of years having started as a PCA, and in 2004 in an effort to improve my job prospects I obtained my diploma of nursing and then continued to work in the aged care industry as an endorsed EN. I feel that the time has come to take the next step. I feel that this is a logical step for me and will enable me to make the most of emerging opportunities in the local area; (The future Palmerston Regional Hospital), and also to provide financial security for my family This is becoming increasingly important due to the fact that my partner has a degenerative eye condition and therefore has a limited work

As a young child the only school I ever wanted to attend for college was CSU. And when I was accepted into CSU I was ecstatic to attend, especially since I was the first person in my entire family to go to college. As soon as I had reached CSU I decided to try CS as a possible major due to my love for technology and thought programming would be a great step towards a career I wanted to pursue. But unfortunately my grades and GPA had fallen last year and this semester.The reason for my GPA’s drop below a 2.0 was my financial situation with and in school, choosing too many credits for school and working three jobs to pay for school and my apartment.

I believe that TCU can be a great fit for me especially in the  aspects of the major I intent to pursue. At this moment, I intend to pursue a degree for accounting, and I believe the Neeley School of Business is an excellent place to learn from. I hope to learn about concepts like cash flow statements or understanding deeper into terms such as liabilities, capital, and mathematics in economics. In a way, I believe I can find my passion in this school. Even if I would decide not to take accounting, I am confident in finding my passion in

My children will influence my goals and my work at CCU by motivating me to complete the degree I am working on. My children Influence every decision that I make. I know it’s not just me anymore; I have to put their lives and their needs before mine. They make me push myself harder to provide for them and to make a better life for them. I want to be able to have a career, not just a job. That is how my life has been for the last 5 years I’ve just had jobs to just try to get the bills paid and to get my children what they need and want. Each and every day with them makes it pop into my mind that yes I need to actually finish a degree and show them that it is possible to finish something. Being able to experience motherhood and having to place

After I attended a campus visit this summer, I knew that I wanted to call IU my humble abode. As an undergraduate at IU I plan to partake in and enjoy as many activities that I can; whether that’s tailgating on a friday night or drinking a fat-free latte in the Indiana Memorial Union. When I’m not busy studying, I plan to pursue my love for helping people. Community service has always been a big part of my life and I want to continue my volunteerism at IU. Along with being active in the community I am eager to join the College Republicans at Indiana University. I come from a very politically active family but I actually have never been “into” politics. Lately however, it's began to spark my interest so I guess it’s time to see what all the

My personal objectives stem from a deep rooted desire to pursue a career in business since I was young; it is the only schooling I have found an interest in that is relatable to a possible career. I have always had the desire to start up my own business and realized the best path to make that dream a reality was to first learn the core fundamentals of business; this drew me into The Okanagan College as I became aware it is the highest rated business school of my choices. I have always been very hands on and mechanically inclined, this always drew me into trades but the average work week has always turned me off from joining some type of trade. I believe the BBA program will enable me to pursue a career on my own terms rather
