Throughout the ages, Europe has been a place where foreigners go to seek adventure, history, the arts, education and romance. Since a young age I have been intrigued by the European culture in movies, history, food, books, as well as languages. After receiving my Master’s degree, I would like to live and perform in Europe, where I hope to also work as a translator. Because of my background, I have been determined to live abroad and explore from a young age. I am from a multi-cultural family and was raised with a great respect for traveling, learning languages, and understanding different cultures and practices. My mother is from Bogotá, Colombia and my father is of Danish and Italian descent. I grew up with both parents speaking Spanish in …show more content…
I firmly believe that my pursuit of graduate studies will allow me to further immerse into the refinement of my craft as an opera singer. I also aspire to achieve greater fluency in both French and German and believe that graduate studies will provide me with both the time and the resources to do so. I want to continue learning and polishing my artistry so that I become more effective and inspiring for my audiences. My other motivation for pursuing graduate studies is to build a strong network of colleagues and mentors within my field. I believe that my studies at Eastman will assist me in worldwide networking and promoting my career as a singer through the friendships and academic encounters that I experience. I believe I am a good candidate for graduate school because I am an ambitious student, I am not afraid to accept difficult challenges, and I know that I would be successful in taking full advantage of the opportunity. Furthermore, I believe that wherever I decide to travel after graduate school, I will be a good ambassador for Eastman School of Music and the United States. My ambition to share my love for classical voice around the world through the improvement of my performance skills, especially musicality and interpretation. I would be honored to be selected to study at Eastman School of
According to true colors I am a green.

“What are you even doing here? I have never seen such flawed technique in all my years as a choreographer.” The words echoed throughout the medical college auditorium. Impelled by the admonishment in front of my peers, I persevered in my endeavor to improve upon my dancing prowess and by the final year of medical school was leading the college dance team. The above mentioned undertaking further spawned an interest for the discipline of Latin Ballroom which lead to participation at the national level. The unwavering focus and persistence even in the face of unfavorable odds is more broadly reflective of my approach towards learning, both academic and extracurricular. This has been instrumental in achieving stellar academic outcomes including being ranked nationally in the top 0.0004 percent in the premedical test and the top 0.6 percent in the common aptitude test for management training.
Since birth, a combination of experiences forged in me a unique mindset and determination making me the ideal candidate to attend the United States Military Academy West Point. Four years of education and service as an Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) cadet, together with my service as a member of a Christian mission team, when combined with my legacy as the namesake descendant of United States Army Master Sergeant George LaVance Kyzer, Missing in Action - Chosin Reservoir, Korea, provide me with an unparalleled knowledge of the duty, service, and sacrifice becoming a member of The United States Army commands. Therefore, I am the perfect candidate to represent South Carolina as a nominee to serve this country at the level
Looking at “Wellesley 100”, what impressed me at first glance was number 26, the impressive list of scientific equipment that are available at Wellesley College. Owing to my parents experience in the field of biomedicine and their influence upon me, I have always been intrigued by the methodologies and types of equipment used to conduct the various research that have built the field of biology and biomedicine. My fascination with research originates from the opportunity that I had to visit my father and his colleagues in a research facility in Beijing University where my father’s team were conducting research to test the result of a certain herbal medicine on rats. I was truly fascinated by the facility, the light microscopes, centrifuges,
Since the time when I was little, my parents always encourage me to do the best, work hard, become educated and have a positive life style at a very young age. My earliest memories are that of reading interesting books because I love to read and do my science whiz experiments. However, I also had great interests in playing with Lego pieces and conducting fun chemistry games in my own tiny lab. It was a fun time for me; at least that’s how I recall it now. The only things I had to worry about were: what will I have for lunch today, which chemistry game or Lego pieces do I want to play with and my team winning the sports games I use to compete in.
The desire to attend medical school should be one that is carefully planned out to ensure it is truly the right path; I believe this since medical school is something that requires many extra years of dedication and determination to complete. If one does not fully understand what they are embarking on might find out too late that becoming a physician was the wrong path for them. To ensure that applying to medical school was the right choice for me, I took the long road while developing a strong work ethic along the way.
of reference, I realized I needed fraternity. I realized I needed camaraderie. I realized I needed to be a Whiffenpoof.
Driving to Starbucks in Arvada and the weather was calm, cool and collective. It became the most interesting, graceful and intense summer that year. It was summer of 2012 and I sat across my bible study leader surrounded by coffee at Starbucks as she told me to grip the coffee cup. She used it as an analogy as accepting Christ in my life. As I took the coffee cup and accepted Christ as my savior, my life has forever changed and the blessings have been flowing into my life that only GOD can give. I have chosen Colorado Christian University as my choice of college to finish out my bachelor’s degree because I have a strong ambition to chase after a relationship with Jesus. I want to use my spiritual gifts I have been given to spread the love of Jesus
Coming from a family that supports and pushes you to do your best, has been the best encouragement in life. When I had started Kindergarten ten years ago, I was like any other child, ready to learn. It was difficult for me and for other children to successfully learn a whole new language. It is understandable that it was equally challenging for the teachers to help us understand. While some did try, others only assumed it was better to retain those students in the same grade so that they could keep learning.
‘Slow and steady wins the race’, they say. Nothing best describes my passage through life as does this adage: mine has been flanked by academic challenges and high family standards. Yet, I have not only always pulled through but have done so most gallantly, even finishing best at some levels.
It is with great pleasure I submit my application for Law School. Currently, I am finishing my Bachelor’s Degree at the University of Mary in psychology and philosophy. I hope to continue my education to become a lawyer at the University of Mary. I believe I am an excellent candidate for your program based on my dedication to succeed and learn.
If someone asked me where I am going to be in ten years, this would be my answer. I will have a great, high-paying job, and beautiful wife and family, and a nice sports car parked in front of my lovely house. When I look into the future, I see myself being successful and happy. Even though I always pictured myself this way, I never worried too much about how I would get there. I feel the Suffolk University can lay the groundwork for making these dreams into reality.

I am applying to your Master of Education in Counseling Education program for the spring of 2018. I graduated from Claflin University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. When I first entered college in 2006 I had no solid career goals. I went to the school I thought my parents wanted me to go to and ended up majoring in a field where I felt I could begin a lucrative career. In the end this lead me to a number of jobs where I had no room for growth, I was undervalued and unappreciated, and overall unsatisfied. I have been employed in various roles in government. Working for the Department of Juvenile Justice has impacted me and my decision to pursue a
