I am thrilled to be a USF student for the next four years and want to make the most of my experience. One way I can do that is by living in the Honors LLC, as it is a place that fosters the development of students in both a personal and academic manner.
The Honors LLC is a place shared by people who are similar in values: academically driven, culturally diverse, open-minded, and hard-working. Being surrounded by students who exhibit these characteristics would push me to work harder and do my best. Living with a roommate in the Honors LLC and being able to participate in events with a similar group of people with common values would afford me the opportunity to make close friendships and foster the formation of connections that would be valuable

I have always wanted to travel during college to study, volunteer, or both, and the study abroad programs and scholarships pertaining to the Honors LLC will allow me to achieve these dreams. I believe traveling to new places is an unparalleled method of learning, as traveling exposes you to ideas, customs, and mannerisms that no textbook can ever teach. In today’s global society, being aware of other cultures is crucial from a personal, business, and societal standpoint.
In terms of my career, I am currently split between wanting to pursue medicine or environmental science. Thus, meeting a variety of people in the Honors program following those paths and learning about their experiences would allow me to learn more about the two, and ultimately to decide which is the best fit for me. Honors LLC events such as the Med Student Forum would be very helpful in discovering more about a potential career path.
When I read about the various LLCs, the Honors LLC is the one that stood out to me due to its alignment with my beliefs and aspirations. The in-hall advising and events such as the Pre-Professional Student Panel are added benefits, but what drew me in is the LLC’s focus on personal growth and development. I am excited to begin a new part of my life at USF as an Honors
The National Honors Society boasts of members with significant academic accomplishments, selfless hours of community service, and strong leadership capabilities as a representative of the school’s excellence. Becoming a member of the National Honors Society is a prestigious honor. As a student, I strive for excellence in my academics and have made the honor roll every quarter, showing my aim and dedication to reaching my highest potential. I try not to compete with other students, but with myself. My academics are the result of my hard work, and my dedication towards grades correlates to the dedication I have towards becoming a leader and a role model for the community.
The Honors College will enable me to collaborate closely with my fellow peers and explore real world problems, as I strive to improve the lives of those around me and uplift the South Florida community. After reading and sharing the same mission, values, and vision advertised on the FIU Honors College website, I hold true that the challenging curriculum, research, community engagement, international study, and cultural literacy will further my enrich my studies in international business and lead to overwhelming success in my personal
National Honor Society and National Technical Honor Society alike have provided the best opportunities for personal growth for a few reasons. As members, we sacrifice our time for the betterment of others. It is rewarding to help those in need without seeking credit. National Honor Society allowed me to reach out to those very close and dear to me in the community, while National Technical Honor Society helped me reach out to communities outside of Dansville, that I would have never had the opportunity to help otherwise. Both chapters were very influential in developing maturity, accountability, and selflessness. Additionally, being the Treasurer of National Honor Society has given me the opportunity to take on a leadership role. Stepping
Given the opportunity to join the honors college, I will be able to bring numerous skills such as : leadership, teamwork, volunteering, problem solving and creativity. With the use of education I am able to show my leadership abilities. Recently I was a leader in five different organizations ranging from vice president to operations officer of each organization. I helped each club with my talent of volunteering. I’ve by feeding the homeless, donating to the elderly, assisting in our county wide Special Olympics and tutoring special needs children ranging from K-6th
To live a fulfilling and successful life, I feel that one must possess certain qualities or attributes. I believe one should work diligently at all they do, make efforts to lead those in the community, give back to the community, and possess a set of morals by which to live. I believe that the four qualities which are required for admission into the National honors Society embody this. By having scholarly attributes, being a leader to peers and colleagues, serving the community and acting with good character, one can achieve success. Therefore, scholarship, leadership, service, and character are all extremely important to me personally; as a students and as a member of the community.
From my first semester, I knew that Palm Beach State College is the place for me. After being homeschooled for my elementary and secondary education the thought of college was rather intimidating but I am so glad I made the choice to come. The experience, so far, has been fabulous and this seems like the next step on my college journey. On the road to becoming a physical therapist, I believe that Honors College can provide added bonuses; from the stimulating environment to the social requirements and I would like to take advantage of them. Through Honors College I feel I will be able to meet new people and create connections that will help me once I graduate.
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.
As a student of The Pennsylvania State University, I have spent time observing my peers on a day to day basis. As a curious individual, I like to see how people act and what they do in and out of the classroom. I have paid close attention to the students within Schreyer’s, and I have even already taken some honors credits where I had the opportunity to work with honors students. Based on my observations, I have found the Schreyer Honors College to stand for three main things: academic achievement, leadership among peers, and community outreach. As a hardworking student, I strive to incorporate these qualities in my life. As a result, I am interested in joining Schreyer Honors College so that I may be able to have more academic, leadership,
The Honors College demands work ethic, time management, and knowledge. By participating in the Honors College at Georgia State, I will challenge myself to become more sufficient in the demanded areas. I want to become part of the exhilarating challenges. These challenges mentally and physically prepare me for medical school. The experience I gain in the Honors College at Georgia State University creates a path of opportunities. I want to further create friendships with other students and share memorable moments that will last a lifetime. During graduation, I wish look at all of my friends in their cap and gowns and say, “We made it, together”. I hope to look back at the years I spent at Georgia State University and remember it as if it was just yesterday.
Please allow me to explain my qualifications to serve in the Office of Legislative Counsel.
Before I started my first semester of college I made sure that my academic and career goals were set to avoid indecisiveness. One of my intellectual objectives has always been to be a part of the honors college. Deep in my heart I know I have what it takes to be in an organization of students that excel with integrity. Furthermore, the benefits that come along with being a student within the honors college can assist me with getting through my scholastic agenda which includes internships, scholarships and honorary mentions.
Besides, I am a student that does not only persistently works hard academically, but also I constantly try to improve my own community’s quality of life by doing volunteer work and it has always been a goal for me to return back to my community that helped me a lot during high school and even now in college. I believe education is the key to success, and I try to connect my passion for education with my desire of helping others. As a result, I decided that the honors program was the perfect way to fulfill this educational goal that I
The University is going to lose a huge part of its culture with the construction of the new honors complex: the integration of the honors college into the UA community. This is essential for several reasons, not the least of which is that the UA’s current style contrasts with Barrett, the Honors College on ASU’s Tempe campus. If the U of A builds a similar complex, Arizona students will lose their choice between an integrated honors college experience, and a more isolated feel. Way back when I was an un-enlightened senior in high school, I was set on going to ASU. I had the opportunity to tour all three in-state Universities, so I visited ASU, and I decided to check the U of A out (mostly so I could get out of class).
Living Learning Communities facilitate learning, growth, and friendship. LLCs seek students who are dedicated and motivated. Personally, I am both; throughout high school, I have worked hard and studied hard. I maintained a high GPA while participating in theatre almost every day after school. Indeed, I was able to take rigorous Advanced Placement courses along with dual enrollment engineering course while helping to run my school’s theatre company, Lymlight Production. I plan to continue both this hard work while at USF. Thus, living in an LLC will help me meet my goals.
I am looking for a mutually beneficial arrangement starting from October (meeting once or twice a week).
