Honors College Mission Statement

The Honors College at ECU should admit an exceptional students such as myself because I consider my education to be the paramount element for my success in the near future. Although I am a student athlete I never forsake my education for my sport, track, because I know that my sport will only take me as far as a scholarship to ECU but won't be of much help after that. As I consider my education above my sport, I tutor my team mates in math because that's what they have a hard time understanding. Not only do I tutor but my teammates and I also volunteer around the community by raking leaves and shoveling snow during the fall and winter which helps us out if they would like to support the team with a donation. I like to hold myself to a higher

The Purdue Honors College is an excellent program which would add many great new opportunities to my education. I have always enjoyed a challenge in my education, and the community and resources available would only help to further support this. Primarily, the learning community to which I would be exposed would create an enhanced academic environment, as I would live in the Honors Residence and take Honors courses with a diverse group of individuals who share my passion for learning. Furthermore, being a part of this dedicated community would expose me to a wide range of beliefs and ideas coming from a highly motivated group of individuals and therefore would allow me to further grow as a person.

The Suny Stony Brook Honors College would be a perfect fit for me for a wide array of reasons. Even though I may not seem like a suitable candidate for this program by being part of this program I will gain the extra motivation to work harder at my work. The Honors College provides its students the opportunity to participate in research at its highest level. This is very important to me because in High school I did research at a university and this helped me learn a great deal about the topic and by doing research in Stony Brook I can better understand my major. Also in the honors college these students are given the chance to be close with the faculty. This will greatly give beneficial to me because it will help me learn much better when I

Joining the Honors College will develop my authenticity, not in the sense that I will be a more honest person, but rather, that I will know more about myself and have better reasoning behind my beliefs. The challenging course load that Honors Students face requires a deeper level of reflection. Students must not only know the material, but have a solid foundation behind it. This forces students to question their worldly views, resulting in a reformed person both socially and academically. Striving for a deeper understanding requires my views to constantly evolve.

A Handbook for Honors Programs at Two Year-Colleges states that most honors staff will write letters of recommendation for their students (James 23). This, of course, aids in SJC honors students’ acceptance into universities. Because of an SJC student’s increased likelihood of being accepted into a university, San Jacinto College becomes more appealing to prospective students, parents, and guardians. This leads to an increased number of students bringing in more money for the college.

For applicants to the Honors College, I would ensure the most qualified candidates admission to the college.We are not just seeking students with a high academic standard, but someone who can utilize and build upon the reputation of this program. To do this, I would ask a simple, logical question. However, it can elicit a multi-level response from students to see how they respond to the question posed. I would ask the question, “What do you intend on achieving while a member of the Honors Program?”

The honors program at Trinity offers a 14-credit experience that helps to develop leadership skills and challenges gifted students. As part of the program, students will perform hands-on research with faculty and have several exclusive opportunities for extracurricular activities like honors tea and

The Honors college will also allow me to develop collaboration skills by working with people of all perspectives.

The Honors College community would provide me with various educational and beneficial opportunities. After visiting the FIU campus and learning more about the honors college various conditions called my attention.

Throughout my middle and high school careers I have strived to be the best student possible, and am currently a valedictorian for the class of 2018. My goal is to always be ‘Above Average’, and the Honors Program is another way to go above and beyond. I am excited to pursue post-secondary education, and know that the program will enrich my experience. I would like to take advantage of the various opportunities offered at CSU to enhance my undergraduate experience and prepare me for further endeavors. Growing up in Honduras, I did not have many opportunities.

The objective of a college honors program director is to provide a high quality education to its students in order to bring out their full potential. When considering the two students, their individual potential to succeed given their individual experiences and hardships provides a more holistic measure of preparedness than any single test can. Students with similar circumstances to the second student have great potential to grow, as well as fostering growth in their peers, which benefits the entire program. Failing to accept students similar to the second student represents a failure to provide a diverse and optimal educational environment for all students. Fostering an environment where nearly all students fit a certain educational mold leads

The role of the Honors College in the education of utilizing critical thinking skills should be to further the analytical, communication, and creative thinking abilities of its students. Foremost, the Honors College should expand students’ learning styles by giving assignments and providing study materials that stimulate auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learning. In high school, most students will discover the one learning technique that works best for their needs, yet being able to study in multiple perspectives will help students expand their analytical approaches to problem solving. Furthermore, students should be provided with the opportunity to participate in challenging curriculum with a variety of subjects effecting modern society

Since orientation, and after much consideration, I have decided that I wish to be known as a kind and generous person. To achieve this goal, I hope to take advantage of volunteering and fundraising opportunities on campus. I would also like to get involved with tutoring programs, and am interested in taking on a leadership role when an

The Honors College at Purdue is wonderful opportunity for students to grow in a professional manner. Opportunity’s such as, special research, learning in an interdisciplinary environment, a network of alumni’s, and many more. These opportunities are why I would like to join the Honors College. I believe I will be able to contribute to the interdisciplinary learning community through my experience as an entrepreneur. Since as an entrepreneur, I have gained skills such as project management, marketing, product design, patent work, and etc. I believe these skills would be a great asset to the honors college, since I could help a fellow peer with their project, and consult with them on how to run it or how to protect their idea. While I have

I have many goals in my life that I wanted to fulfill; one of those goals is to have economic security. During these past 18 months that our country was submerged in recession, it pressed me to reflect on how important it is to have economic security. During that period of time, I was reflecting about which would be the best plan of action that can help me to reach my goals. I came to the conclusion that the only good plan was to go back to the University and to obtain a degree. I currently work in a company as a general manager, but that does not give me the security that I need to project my future. And this was the main reason, why I decide to enroll in DeVry University. Now that I’m an active student, I
