Aerospace Engineering Personal Statement

I am most proud of achieving my Eagle Scout rank at age 16. My journey to Eagle has been one of hard work and dedication. Besides serving the community with over 300 hours of building and refurbishing projects , I have assumed positions of leadership early on, often recommended by adult leaders, as I was described to be mature for my age and very responsible. Over the course of 6 years I was the assistant Den Chief leading younger Scouts, Assistant Patrol Leader and Patrol Leader leading my peers, Quartermaster responsible for the management of all troop equipment, Chaplain Aid, Instructor teaching the Aviation Merit Badge and ultimately I was recommended by my troop adult leaders and asked by my Scoutmaster to assume the position of Senior Patrol Leader leading the entire troop of over 100 boys during my Junior Year in High School.

Out of all of the skin care products in the world, your bathroom cabinet needs to be filled with products researched and designed by me. When I entered high school, I discovered my passion for selecting lip sticks, lip glosses, lotions, perfumes, and makeup foundations. You name it. After learning about the connections between the information in my chemistry class and these items, a light bulb went off! I maintained an A average in chemistry throughout the whole year! Additionally, in 2014, I became a student in the Academy of Engineering and Technology, which also heightened my interests in chemistry. In a science fair at that academy, there was a chemistry course where we made colorful slime, and during that process, I learned that I get an adrenaline rush when I am mixing different chemicals together to see what the outcome is. Majoring in chemistry at Norfolk State University will definitely prepare me for a very successful future in chemistry! My ultimate goal is to conduct research and development for chemical cosmetics. I plan to obtain employment at the greatest companies in the world such as L'Oréal and Avon.

“CLANG!” The cell door slammed open, snapping me from my dazed state. Two years ago, I was intoxicated to the point that I fell asleep on the basketball courts adjacent to my apartment, was arrested, and in the process of that arrest, ignored the lawful requests of the arresting officers. That night and the following morning I found myself alone in a cell with nothing but thoughts of incredulity, self-disappointment, and regret running through my mind as my future at Clemson University remained in question. In the morning, as I was being processed, one key idea, like a lighthouse’s beacon, flashed through my mind; that I was solely responsible for my decisions and the consequences they wrought. This is a fact of life that we are all taught from birth, but it was one I never fully appreciated until there were real-world consequences. That realization,

I was a member of the Boy Scouts of America throughout my childhood all the way up through my high school years. During my junior year I organized and carried out my Eagle Scout service project: building a volleyball court for the church at which the troop held its meetings. This was one of the last things I had to complete before I obtained the highest honor in Scouting: the rank of Eagle Scout. It was what I had been working towards for many years. I spent countless hours planning, stockpiling, and recruiting for my project, and many more hours on the construction and final touches. I presented what I thought was the finished product, only to have one of the Scout leaders ask for more. In my eyes, I was done, but I was told that I couldn’t get my project signed off if I didn’t deal with another construction company and commit to extra hours of renovations.

As a transfer student, I want to feel California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) such as my home. Being ambassador, it is the best to learn about my school, share my experiences, motivate other students to work towards their goals, look for help if they need, show other students our school's resources, and make others feel special for being part of CSUF.

Before I answer the questions posed, I believe an explanation is owed regarding this request for admission into Saybrook. I originally applied to The Chicago School of Professional Psychology seeking a degree in business psychology. Since the program was not ready to start for another year, it was suggested that I take courses in the international psychology program. I thoroughly enjoyed this new experience with an opportunity to “think global”. I optioned to remain in this program with a concentration in organizations and systems. As I sojourned through, I was always aware that there was still something missing. Although I loved being part of the IP program, my roots are deeply entrenched in the world of organizational development (OD).

Attending Kennesaw State University has been a very rewarding journey. As a current senior in college, I have been given the chance to experience the University environment. An environment full of my interaction with my fellow classmates working in study groups and tutoring sessions. Also having the option to sit in on my professor's 2nd lecture that you did not understand fully during your class period.

I am a senior at Ontario High School and am expecting to graduate this May. I was born in Querendaro, Mexico and then moved to Ontario, Oregon. While in high school I have already obtained a few college credits at a reduced price, but even though I obtained them at a reduced price it was still challenging to pay for them. In my house, there is my two parents, my two sisters and myself, all living with one parent household income and some help. I also had the advantage to complete the Certified Nursing Program as a high school student through the Allied Health. Since I got the opportunity to obtain these college credits and complete the CNA program while in high school, I took the fullest advantage.

Introducing Folashade V. John, I am a first- generation student with parents who were both born in foreign countries—Trinidad and Nigeria. It is my duty, as a first generation American to become successful. As a third- year student at the University of Florida, I have realized that it is more beneficial to utilize your resources than to complain about not having enough. There are many resources on campus that benefit students like me. The GatorLaw Program will provide me with great opportunities that can help me pursue my interest in legal studies.

Ever since I was a little boy that I knew about the value of education. Unfortunately, neither of my parents had the possibility to attend college. As I grew up, I became aware of the difficulties my parents passed by to raise me and I realized that this is not the future I wanted to have. From this moment, my focus on education emerged and became solid. With their love, sacrifice and time, I was able to graduate high school and get into college, even though money was always tight. Now, I am a hard working student that strives for his objectives with excellence. Texas Tech Honors college has a great reputation in the U.S, and around the world. Being part of the TTU honors college would be a dream accomplished. This would increase my opportunities

The University of Mississippi is a second home to me, but also a place that continually challenges me on a daily basis to be better, to think outside of normal constraints, and to become a more effective leader. Serving Ole Miss as a student, and eventually as alumni, is so rewarding.

After high school, I am going to attend Texas A&M to get an undergraduate degree in public economics and after that I will pursue further education at the Texas A&M Law School. I am going to get a degree in law so that when I graduate I can be a partner in my family's law firm. For the past couple of years I have toyed with the thought of either going to join the marines or being a lawyer but in the end I came to the conclusion that becoming a lawyer was the best bet for me; three generations of my family have done it and I would like to fill their shoes and carry out tradition.

Going to college will be a massive step in my life, even graduating from high school. First off, I plan to major in Accounting and become a Public Certified Accountant. I have been told that it will be hard, just going to class will not cut it. You have to be on top of schoolwork making sure you have it turned in on time and more. I chose K-State University because I could see my future there on campus getting through it all. I thought K-State had the best Business program and so much more. Looking at other colleges wasn’t a bad choice but I couldn’t see myself on their campus as much as I did with K-State. Second, I want to get involved in groups that would be good for me. I do not know all the kinds of groups are on campus but I’m sure I will find out. I hope to start off with

I decided to apply to AGS for natural science because I have always loved science. When I was very young, I always told people I wanted to be a scientist when I grew up; even though I did not fully understand what being a scientist exactly entailed, I always thought the work they did seemed valuable and, most importantly to a kid, very cool. Now, at seventeen, I realize that scientists are not always eccentric old men wearing white lab coats, but I still find their profession fascinating. I think that the reason I have always been interested in science is because it is a very hands-on subject; you learn by doing, and I have found that that is how I learn best. I have also been intrigued with science because the research scientists discover
