Emory University attracts me most for its abundant research programs provided for the undergraduate students. Personally, I like to do various kinds of research, including but not limiting to Mathematics. In Grade 11, I led a research project in respect of the negative effect created by the abuse of laser beam, which mainly focused on physics concepts. By doing a substantial amount of experiments and gathering related information from the internet, I obtained much more knowledge outside the classroom. As a result, doing a research program is one of the goals that I want to achieve at university. Regarding to the undergraduate research programs at Emory University, Research Partner Program (RPP) is an institution which supports students who interest in working on a research project with a faculty mentor. I find that one of the mathematics related research programs focuses on Algebra and Number theory, which is my favorite topics among all math theories. I hope that I could participate in this research program to train my analytical skills and presentation skills. Besides research opportunities, honors programs are also prevalent throughout the …show more content…

Their success with their Clemson degrees inspire me to obtaining the cherished honor of a Clemson graduate and grow the highly respected reputation of a
I fell in love with politics at the age of 10, the year was 2004, and I liked John Kerry because he shared my name. I also supported him because my father, at the time, was supporting George W. Bush and I was a rather antagonistic child. Over time I’ve certainly become more nuanced in the candidates I support, but that year began a lifetime journey into a field that is ever changing, ever competitive, and that impacts so many lives.
Despite my enrollment on Blinn TEAM, I took advantage of many opportunities that otherwise only those who are fully enrolled at Texas A&M would take.

All of these experiences have exposed me to lessons, hardships, and joys that I do not regret going through for a single second.

I was born in Victoria, Texas. Being raised in South Florida, I’ve been around a variety of cultures and diverse people all my life. I am mu-lingual (English / Spanish) and I am conversational in Italian. Attending Somerset Academy Charter since kindergarten is one of the reasons I am who I am today.

Growing up in a small town in the corner of Northwest Georgia taught me many things. It taught me a distinctive vocabulary showcasing words such as “cattywampus” and phrases like “well butter my butt and call me a biscuit.” I also learned the importance of manors and of course, the notorious southern hospitality. However, growing up in a small city in the south also taught me about the tangible impact that of discrimination and privilege. It taught me about lack of funding for public education and underachieving student bodies. But most importantly, it inspired me to serve. Without growing up and seeing these things first hand, I honestly do not know if I would have felt the calling to protect the rights of everyone and work towards an inclusive

My desire to expand my thirst for knowledge has propelled me to be the best I can be. This drive has been with me from the start, and I believe that Johns Hopkins University will push this desire even further.

My favourite thing to do is disciple; engage in authentic conversations about life, relationships, and Jesus through a mixture of counseling, mentoring, and teaching. I have been intrigued by philosophy and theology since high school.

In this major I took exegetical coursework, first year Hebrew and Greek, and was prepared for Graduate studies with a thesis course.
I aspire to attend the Clark Atlanta University because it is a symbol for past and future generations of educational and operational excellence. Clark Atlanta University is the hub of African American leadership and educational expansion, and with the constant policing of the community and poaching of black culture in today’s society, it is significant that I achieve an education that represents myself and the world with which I am familiar and intend to change for the better.
The University of Pennsylvania has one resource that no other establishment in the world can offer to me: the highest caliber of intellectuals in my field. Given that I intend on attending the Wharton School of Business and with the goal of becoming a financial manager, and then rising further along corporate ladder, I must be at the absolute forefront of the field and gain as many connections as I can along the way. Not to be used, people are not tools. But, I am NOT one who is content to let themself fall into the pit of mediocrity And I recognize that the success of one individual can inspire success in those around them. Thus, is researched the different groups that students have put together for the mutual benefit of both University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton School of Business and the multitude of opportunities they present myself: investment experience, interdisciplinary education, and furthering my understanding of the Chinese economy.
