Goals After College Education

Growing up, I had such big hopes and dreams for myself. As a child, I always aspired to be a teacher because I loved telling people what to do and taking charge. I am the oldest child and would always have to help my brother with his homework and teach him how to do things around the house. I remember how I enjoy quizzing him for his spelling tests. Unfortunately, life did not go as planned and I ended up taking the wrong path in life. However, 13 years and 3 kids later I decided to return to college.

Enrolled at Miami Dade College is the starting point to complete my long life desire and goal of earning a Master degree in management engineering, and business administration. From the time I was a young kid through the time of high school, I had always have passion for more knowledge, and engineering. But in my senior year in high school to the time of summer, I have led to the discovery of another passion, and great ambition toward it (Business). However, to reach those goals, I will need the power of education, which provide more knowledge, and wisdom to whoever seek. By pursuing a college degree, I have a higher change of successes in both degree, in life also. But this question also deal with emotional feeling, pursuing a college degree

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 short term goals are to earn multiple degrees in college and discover what career I want to pursue. I plan to do this by working extremely hard in a wide variety of classes in order to find what fields I could work in and enjoy. Since I’m not entirely sure what I want to pursue in life, my only prevailing long term goal is to be content and proud of what I have accomplished. I feel that as long as I consistently work hard and strive to be the best I can be, I will accomplish this goal. I believe that Weber Honors College will help me to achieve these goals by constantly challenging me to outdo myself. I also believe the amazing opportunities the school provides such as a wide selection of majors and classes, study abroad experiences, and

To begin, I would like to express my passion for pursuing a college career. Since I was very young, one of my top goals has always been to have a job that I enjoyed going to everyday. Furthermore, when I started high school I knew I had to commence working towards that goal. Consequently, I had no idea of what kind of job or career I would enjoy, this in turn made me slack off, and not care much about my first two years of high school. Eventually, I took an automotive class at the technical careers high school, and as a result, I knew I wanted to work with cars everyday. Moreover, I took an opportunity that has changed the course of my life drastically. henceforth, I have read and researched many colleges and their programs, and BYU-I stood

I would consider myself very an incredibly driven person, both academically, and in my personal goals. Throughout my educational career, I have consistently strived to achieve the most I could. For me, this meant high academic achievements, honors accolades and achieving the goals that I set my mind to. I have a very strong intrinsic drive to seize every opportunity I’m given. To guarantee I didn’t close any doors to my future I applied to as many colleges as I could instead of staying in my comfort zone and applying to schools I was guaranteed admission to. One of the biggest ways that I am a go-getter is the fact that I faced rejection head on from top schools in the country. For me, it was better to try than always wonder “what-if” even though the process became extremely disheartening at times. I pushed myself throughout the admissions process to have as many opportunities as possible. Additionally, I have an innate desire to learn new things and grow through my education. I have pushed myself to take challenging Advanced Placement electives in subjects I am passionate about and I am eager to begin college to continue increasing my knowledge in certain fields. In college, my biggest goal is to graduate in three years. While this new challenge may be difficult to achieve as my degree plan involves two majors in Anthropology and Communications and a minor in Interdisciplinary Studies I also understand how rewarding it will be to complete my studies in an

Education has always been a major part of my life. While growing up, I always knew that I would graduate from high school and then continue my education in college. That has always been my plan and now I am making it a reality by attending college here at Utah State University. There are many reasons as to why I am here. The first reason would have to be that I made a goal when I was younger that I would attend college. I am very dedicated to any kind of goal that I make and going to college to pursue a career that required a higher education has always been a dream of mine. I like a challenge and I feel that not just anyone can come to college. Those who attend college need to have the right mindset to have the motivation and dedication

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.

Possessing an educational path in life can open many doors and opportunities in life. Academics are very important to me. I have tried numerous times to continue my studies, but my access is slam shut due to financial restraints. Graduating college is not just a goal for me, yet also a dream of mine to fulfill. I am so determined and dedicated to get my B.A. in Forensic Science that my seizure disorder cannot hold me back; however, financial burdens have. My husband and I work hard every day at jobs that scarcely earns over minimum wage. We labor extremely hard every day to provide for our two daughters, although with the swell in medical insurance, rent and just daily living and lack of rise in wages there is no additional earnings towards

College is the most commonly discussed topic that my teachers, parents, classmates, friends, and family members converse with me about, and the main reason branches from my current status as an eleventh grader. This means that I have a year and a half left until graduation and college entry. Every day, I am advised the same, repeated information about colleges: “College is awesome,” “College is great,” “You will have so much to stress about,” “College is no joke,” “You should be thinking about colleges,” “Do you know which college you are going to?” These popular phrases I listen to religiously are the reason why I stress about making sure that I obtain the essential resources I need for college, but why should I worry so much about something that I do not necessarily know anything about? Adults have explained so much about college and how the experience will be like, but how would I truly know the experience if I do not have a first-hand perspective on it? I believe that the Summer Scholars Program at the University of Miami

My main objective for going to college is to put myself in a position where I can bring people together to solve common problems. I am currently a sophomore in college and I’m double majoring in both International Relations and Computer Technology. As an ambassador of my generation, my goal is to become a language interpreter for the United Nations and a computer technician. I plan on studying abroad to further enhance my knowledge and gain a greater understanding of how to communicate more effectively with different cultures. The personal experience of interacting with different people will give me insight on how to not only bring people together, but enhance my skills as an interpreter as well. According to Eve Elwell from thirdyearabroad.com,

My educational goals are to finish high school with all A’s and a GPA of 4.5 or higher. These are short-term goals that will help me to get into a good college. My top choice for college is Davidson College. The next prospects are Vanderbilt University, Appalachian State University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In college, I want to obtain, eventually, a Ph.D. and pursue a career in writing and English or potentially become a professor. During college, I want to study abroad, travel out of the US to experience different cultures and lifestyles. My goal is to traverse the world and visit Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Italy, France, England, Greece, etc. I want to see the Eiffel Tower, visit the Roman Coliseum, and explore

Being a college grad has been in my dreams since 1989. I graduated from high school in that year in Turkey. Like all my peers, I studied for college entry exam of my country. However, because my health problems, and then I had started to work full time to help my family’s economic problems, I couldn’t make true my college dream. Although I moved forward in my career without any diploma, I never stopped to dream it. I knew that if I had a college education, I would do much better in my career. Moving to the US and being an immigrant in another country, pushed me to follow my college dream one more time. I am very excited that I will have my associate degree almost thirty years after my high school and will continue to with bachelor degree dream

Motivation: Getting a degree is one of the many things in life that I want to accomplish, and what keeps me motivated in pursuing a degree is my family and husband. My father is an accountant and he works from home now because he can't walk anymore, although he still earns as much, its just not the same anymore. My husband on the other hand has a disability that often keeps him from working. These people are my motivation, thinking about what the future brings and what might happen to them financially keeps me in my thinking cap and enables me to strive for the best. I want to be able to earn a degree not only for myself but for my family as well.

After thirteen years of planning and learning about what college has to offer, the decision finally has to be made about what I want to do with future academic career and life after college. The number of colleges I have to choose from is endless. However; the bigger decision is whether to attend a local branch of Ohio University or Zane State or attend a college out of town.
