Auburn is often referred to as the loveliest village on the plains, and for good reason. I have always felt at home when on campus. It fits my needs academically, socially, and financially. The opportunities provided to students at Auburn are endless. There are thousands of ways to get involved. The College of Engineering is nationally ranked, and so was the softball team. I have the tools to succeed at Auburn. What I lack in sheer intelligence is compensated by an internal drive to succeed and a willingness to go the extra mile to do so.
I believe If accepted into Appalachian State University I would exude in both academically and both socially. Appalachian provides many appealing aspects to me, prominently their historical academic programs. Now as a 1st Generation, child of Mexican immigrants I was expected to attend a college in the city notorious for large classes and a standard picturebook college. When I first heard of appalachian I was in awe because it was everything I was not told about. The teenager in me had to investigate more, and the more I read about the university the more I fell in love. If I were to be accepted I would permanently reside in their campus, which would put me out of my comfort zone being that I’ve been in Cary my whole life and was born in New
I would be an excellent fit for Appalachian State University and am eager to both embark on this new path of life and better myself as a person. I am determined to fulfill my potential and am certain that enrolling in Appalachian State would help me do so. Appalachian State provides numerous educational opportunities for its students and I would be ecstatic to be those students. I wish to pursue a career in physics and Appalachian's well-trained teachers, research-based learning, and educational rigor rigorous would give me an advantage when pursuing a job and following my passion. Appalachian State University is an outstanding school and I would love to be a part of
I know that going to Oregon Institute of Technology will open many opportunities for me and will lead me to achieving my goals. It’s not only the best choice for me educationally wise but it's a place that I can see myself calling a home. I have confidence that this school has what I need to help me become a successful dental hygienist. The Oregon Institute of Technology Dental Hygiene program is one of the best in the state and I know it'll make me into a great dental hygienist one day. Not only that but the campus is beautiful and I can see myself being happy there. I know I will meet great new people and it'll give me the best college experience I can get.

Ashford University is a instituion that holds itself with great prestige and respect. While attending I'll be able to advance my knowledge of teaching and children’s emotional, social, and physical needs to better help them grow. I feel it will push my career and academic goals in the right direction aswell as push my limits academically.
Overall, Texas A&M offers a great opportunity for me. Trying to get into this university alone will give me the opportunity to get better and try my hardest. I also love the fact that this school has a 20:1 student faculty ratio. I have always went to a small student faculty ratio school and I want to continue it. Last but not least, the computer science program is perfect for me. I can pursue my dream to have a job that is related with computer
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.
In the McWhorter School of Building Science in the College of Architecture, students have had a 100% employment rate in the two previous semesters (Nobles). This statistic alone shows one perk Auburn University has over many other colleges. Auburn University is the best college because it has the best job opportunities, the best major, and the best traditions.
I took many classes at Oakton pertained to engineering and I loved it. I knew from the very beginning it is something I want to do for the rest of my life. I was doing really good in my engineering classes and after three years at Oakton I decided I am ready for UIC to pursue my major. During all my years in high school and even at Oakton I wasn't really influenced or apart of any activities or clubs. I was more focused on school and getting good grades, plus working so I can pay for Oakton and get the education I needed. In high school I really didn't have any challenges that have impacted my academic achievements, but college sort of did. I have a few semesters that I needed extra help and extra studying to have the best grade in that particular class. I did take advantage of all the programs Oakton had and extra help that they offered so I had everything I needed. After all, I do like all the challenges because it makes me push even harder towards my goals and I fell like nothing will stop me or get into my way. And that is why I'm so excited about UIC and their great engineering program, so it can prepare me for my future and all the challenges I will come
I am currently a student at Kettering University in Flint, Michigan. I originally applied to Kettering because I thought that I wanted to be an engineer in the automotive industry, and Kettering, being the former General Motors Institute, had one of the best programs in the US to be an automotive engineer. I worked hard to get accepted into Kettering, and I was excited to start college., I joined multiple clubs, and rushed the fraternities on campus, choosing to join Beta Theta Pi. I had a great time my first term at Kettering. However, during the second term at Kettering I started to realize that I was not having the educational experience I desired.
Growing up in poverty not only made me the person I am today, it made me want a better version of myself for my future self and family. This is a goal I know I could achieve through continuing my education to Florida State University. I believe I would benefit from the community at Florida State University because I would be surrounded by other students who want to improve their academic career and lives, as they willingly attend to pursue their chosen degrees. Also, I’ll be able to immerse myself in clubs and organizations that consist of people who share the same dream of a career in science and medicine. The community at Florida State University will benefit from me because not only do I work my hardest, I have the dedication, and confidence, to succeed in anything I set my mind to. Working hard at my job and school, allowed me gain experience with time management, discover my dedication to education, and discover my dream college: Florida State
“Once a Dragon, always a Dragon” is more than just a phrase to me. I have lived in Niles, Ohio for my whole life. I have learned many valuable lessons while living and attending school here. As a senior I have applied to many schools and while many were great, I found one that offered everything I was looking for. They have an outstanding academic program, the major I intend on studying, a great campus that I feel at home with, and lots of extracurricular activities. It seems like the perfect college, but the only problem is, it is five hours away. I am going to be studying chemical engineering with a minor in paper science at Miami University. Even though I will become a redhawk for the next four years I will still be a dragon at heart.
Chapman University is one of the top schools in the nation. The university is notorious for their academics in every category. The university gives me a great opportunity in the classroom and to have an enjoyable life. Coming from Servite High School with around nine hundred students, I have adapted to the smaller size schools. At Chapman, I believe I will be able to get more hands on work with the fourteen students to one faculty ratio than at any other university. Being a Southern California kid, I love what the area has to give me with the live local entertainment, dazzling beaches, and gorgeous mountain tops with elegant slopes. With Chapman being a ten minute drive, I will be able to live and stay close to my family and love ones. Based
I see this university as an enormous and amazing place to study. In my mind, I have not planned to start in a JC and then transfer to a State. I know, I can do whatever I put on my mind. I want to accept this challenge, because I want my parents and siblings to feel proud of me, otherwise if I go to Fresno State, I will be the first one of the family to study in a university in the United States of America.
You know you love Auburn when you get to the college and can instantly feel happiness and warmth inside of you. That’s how I’ve always felt about this amazing University. People that know this feeling say this often, but it really is true that there is just something special and different about Auburn than any other college. I remember my first Auburn football game, the first toilet paper roll at Toomer’s corner, and when I took my first official tour of the college and I didn’t want to ever leave. I love the tradition, the home atmosphere, the amazing academics and activities, and the family of Auburn, and I believe each of these aspects will help me to be successful here. The traditions of the college, such as the songs, the eagle, the game
I could not believe my eyes. I rubbed them over and over again, hoping that somehow reality fooled me. The only noise that I could hear was the continuous beat of my heart; thump, thump, thump, thump. It was as if my brain short-circuited and needed to be rebooted. With sweat running down my face, I gathered my courage and looked into the mirror. It has been months since I had the guts to glance at my reflection, and I was shocked. I did not expect to see such an oversized woman staring back at me. I closed my eyes at the horrifying figure and looked down to see the scale one more time. One hundred and fifty four pounds. From that moment on, I knew that things will never be the same
