Explain Why I Chose Umass Amherst

Most colleges/universities in the world are overpriced and it takes not only a lot of money, but also perfect grades and exceptional extracurriculars to be able to get into them and pursue the career you want. Smaller colleges are expensive as well, but not as overpriced like all the big colleges. I would prefer to attend a small college in a small town. For example, I chose to attend West Hills Coalinga because I thought it would be a great experience since it is a small college; I come from a small town, therefore I would fit in better there than in a big school. West Hills Coalinga has the same opportunities all colleges have, but not only that, you can save yourself many personal and financial expenses as well.

It feels like everyday I meet people who ask me what college I want to attend. I give them the usual list of colleges I wish to apply to, but when Hofstra University comes up, people ask me, “why do you want to apply to Hofstra University?” I say there are infinite reasons why I wish to go to Hofstra. The number one reason being that it is really close to home. Hofstra is an excellent school - one of the best schools in New York. Hofstra has over a 100 distinct majors and minors to choose from ranging from Biology to Engineering to American Studies. I plan to major in Biology, and Hofstra is the best for my major because it has resources to offer its students giving them hands on experiences. Being an AP student, I love to take arduous classes

Being able to attend this university, knowing that I am surrounded by other future chemists would mean a lot to me. Norfolk State has a legacy of African Americans excelling academically, starting professional careers after immediately graduation, and simply, being successful. I would be honored, to continue the legacy of African Americans striving for excellence in at Norfolk State University. Achieving wonderful goals in all that I do has always been the top priority of my life. I will always be dedicated to nothing but excellence, and I am more than ready to share my ideas of chemistry with Norfolk State University. Go

I chose Virginia Tech for a few reasons which included The College of Natural Resources and Environment, the Appalachian Mountains, and being known as Hokie. The college of Natural Resources and Environment is nationally ranked and known worldwide for their academics and field studies. Virginia Tech was one of the few colleges in the area that offered Wildlife Conservation as a major and I was set on my major since freshman year of high school. My cousin, Mark Jones, who is the head biologist of the Black Bear population for the East Coast attended Tech and I am striving to follow in his footsteps. I enjoy how the programs is hands on and competitive to all students in the program. I am alongside of students, graduated and not graduated, who

After extensive research, I came to the conclusion that the University of North Carolina at Greensboro was the best school for me. I am transferring to receive my Bachelor’s degree in Public Health. The University of North Carolina at Greensboro offers an amazing program in Public Health, which is completely online. The Bachelor’s degree in Public Health is a program designed to receive your degree by completing courses at home. I am eager to learn all of the material required for me to be successful in the career of my choice. My ultimate career after receiving the Public Health degree is to become a Medical and Health Services Manager. I hope to achieve this goal and make my family proud. Even though I will not be physically attending the university, I love the diversity of the university and the surrounding area. I have visited the university many times and the people are always nice and helpful. I hope to communicate with classmates via email and become a more sociable person. I promise to work hard and be very successful in all of my

Emory offered me something no other school I was accepted to could; it allowed me to study finance and film. Emory also has the perfect location. It is in Atlanta, where many movies are being filmed due to the tax credits in Georgia. This makes getting a job or internship easier. My grandparents and cousins also live in Dunwoody, 25 minutes from campus. This made me feel better about leaving home as I knew there would be people close by if I ever felt homesick. Emory is also the perfect size campus for me. It is large enough to feel like a college not a high school, but small enough to get around campus by just walking. Once here, I discovered you always run into someone you know on campus no matter where you go.

Western Oregon is a standard 4-year, medium sized college. It is located in the small, rural town of Monmouth, but only 10 miles from an urban city. Being primarily residential, Western Oregon brings a certain family vibe, which they claim you cannot find anywhere else. Many students say that their favorite part of Western Oregon is the size, since it gave them more one-on-one time with their professors. There are a total of eighty-three majors. Before financial aid and any scholarship money are entered the tuition is $8,274 for in-state students, while out-of-state student’s tuition is $21,759.

I am applying to Hofstra because I believe that the university can help me achieve my goals. From the time I was a young child, I knew I wanted to go into the medical field. While there is a long and difficult road ahead of me, I am sure that attending Hofstra University will help me go down that road.

I chose to attend Xavier University for many reasons. Some reasons include: continuing my education route, receiving a unique education, and strengthening my Christian beliefs. Since a second grader, I’ve always wanted to become a pediatric dentist and attend Xavier. Although my journey became rough, and seemed impossible, I can finally say, “I am a freshman at Xavier University of Louisiana, and I know for a fact that attending Xavier will allow me to become the best pediatric dentist I can be!”

I would be an excellent fit for Appalachian State University and am eager to both embark on this new path of life and better myself as a person. I am determined to fulfill my potential and am certain that enrolling in Appalachian State would help me do so. Appalachian State provides numerous educational opportunities for its students and I would be ecstatic to be those students. I wish to pursue a career in physics and Appalachian's well-trained teachers, research-based learning, and educational rigor rigorous would give me an advantage when pursuing a job and following my passion. Appalachian State University is an outstanding school and I would love to be a part of

Whenever I declared my major, I thought I was way behind, but after doing research for this assignment, I realized that I am not as far behind as I initially thought. I will have to take CHEM 1251/CHEM 1251L this summer at the Community College near me, but once I take them,

I am interested in Central Connecticut State University because it offers a solid Engineering program. Central has a beautiful campus and both my Father and Mother attended Central Connecticut State University. CCSU has a small campus with a relatively small student body. I value the oppurtunity to have a more personal relationship with my

I would like to conduct my graduate studies at UNC-Chapel Hill for three main reasons, the prestige of the school, the environment it provides, and the chemistry faculty. The prestige is obvious, with a chemistry program ranked number 15 by the U.S. news as well as being among the top U.S. public universities in research support. The prestige of the school is more than just numbers as the first public university in the nation, it has a history of preparing students for success. It is that long history of teaching and research that I would like to be a part of.

Georgetown University is my first choice college for numerous reasons. The first, and likely the most obvious, is it’s phenomenal academic reputation. Georgetown is the pinnacle of higher education in the United States, and this is shown with two US Presidents, 24 US Governors, and countless others that have been successful both inside and outside of the classroom attending the University. The academics that Georgetown has to offer will better prepare me for life after college, and thus would let me make more of an impact on the world. Not to mention that I will be surrounded by thousands of peers that will hold me to the highest expectation possible in order to succeed.

I am Taylor Sellers, an upcoming student at Jefferson State Community College. I want to attend Jefferson State Community College because of the outstanding state of the art culinary program. I have visited with other schools that have recommended and well respected culinary programs, but their programs do not even come close to comparing to this program. Also, Jefferson State has already created memories for me and have largely impacted my basic knowledge of culinary and the basic skills needed to start out in the industry. I have attended a weeklong culinary camp they hosted this past summer and I was able to learn basic skills that led up to us being able to prepare a three course meal to showcase for our families. I also have had the opportunity of joining the culinary explorers program and I have learned and I am still learning many valuable lessons not only skills needed in the kitchen but also with important character traits that are needed in every profession not just
