My Personal Experience In College

My first semester as a college freshman is finally coming to an end. This semester has been the start to a new chapter in my life and I am glad to have finally finished my first semester on a high note. Coming into college I never knew what things would be like and how would I adjust. All I knew is that I wanted to succeed and eventually graduate college. The courses I have taken this semester have had big impact on my learning and my future. Assignments that taught skills and lessons to be used in the future. I have learned skills such as being able to collaborate in groups because of projects in ASU 150.

A sense of humility came over me as I searched to find my way. It was difficult to make new friendships overnight. In this time I learned to branch out and find the right people to build relationships with. Sometimes it was hard to find the right people. I had optimism that the year would go great, and I overcame the doubts in my mind. The treatment I received from my classmates was humbling. Their appreciation made me feel comfortable in my new surroundings. Looking back to my first day at Larned makes me realize how great it was. I learned valuable lessons about myself and how to become a better person because of

Over the course of the semester I have crossed many boundaries that I never would have thought of. Whether that be domestically or culturally over the course of the year and with that it has changed my identity. This semester I found who I am more than anything and gave me an approach to how to live within a community that at first I do not know. With this being said I speak most likely for many that college started out scary as we knew no one and had never been away from home this long. I know personally I found my new identity that I never knew that I had because I crossed boundaries. As time goes on identity evolves when you cross domestic and international boundaries.

I am currently a freshman at the College of Charleston and my life so far has been great! College life is quite a transition from high school, but I am definately enjoying it. The first few weeks of this semester were kind of a struggle for me because I was away from home and had to figure out how to do everything by myself. In addition to that I had to get in the routine of classes, network with new friends, and get familiar with the campus. I am also involved with our school’s Bonner Leader Program, which is a four-year civic leadership and development program highlighted by regular training and reflection activities, along with the requirement of 200 service hours per year. Through this program, I got the opportunity of interning with Coastal

Now that I have completed my first half of the semester in Montclair State University, I feel like I have accomplished a lot within these past few weeks. My goals for this semester was to start off academically strong, make new friends, trying new things, find a major, and getting out of my comfort zone. So far, I have accomplished more than half of my goals. I am doing well in my classes, exploring new places, and I met the greatest group of people I can be friends with.

Seeing as I am a freshman, I can only discuss my expectations and notions for the coming year. Currently, my emotions swing on a pendulum between anxiety and eagerness, but I am pleased to admit the latter outweighs the former. I am enthused to live on my own, nervous about making friends, and expect collegiate academia to challenge me exceptionally more than high school, which I understand and fully accept.

Even though I've been out of school for sometime, I know as a person I have grown since I was last in High school. I am more comfortable with myself as a person. And I am more driven than i was then. My focus and drive is what makes me able to conquer my goals. The change people go through from high school to college is dramatic, much like the Military. I know from my time in high school through my time in the Military I grew as a man. I developed skills I can take with me through everyday life; responsibility, drive, focus is just to name a few. I look forward to my time at Campbell University and getting back into college. I know that this school will teach me a lot and as a community I can grow from it and attain my goals of becoming a Physician

The Three things that I have learned about myself this semester are that I am determined to do whatever I can to finish my degree. I am willing to go above and beyond in order to complete my class work, homework and my classes. I have become more motivated and passionate about my career choices during this semester; I think it is because things are finally starting to fall in perspective for me.

This semester I feel I have grown more as an academic student and as a global citizen. I feel that our Job shadow project helped me be a better Academic student, and that the Malala field trip my school went to helped me become a Global Citizen.These two things have helped me become a better student in their own ways.

I have to admit adjusting to college was a lesson in itself. However, I believe I conquered my freshman jitters and found my fit within the University. I am an active member in four university organization; Clarkson Intercultural Ambassadors (CIA), Minority Association of Pre-Medical Students (MAPS), Center for Underrepresented Minorities (CUPO) and American Medical Students Association (AMSA). I plan to continue immersing myself with activities and becoming a mentor to the incoming freshmen. I am proud to say that I have been accepted into the Honors Program, along with maintaining a 3.8 to 4.0 gpa. This coming year I look forward to continuing my pre-medical studies, along with adding a minor in psychology and working on my independent honors project in sustainability. My future goals will be to begin my studies in preparation for the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). Not to mention my continued support by volunteering and aiding other clubs with their campus activities. My long-term goal is to attend medical school and I really appreciate the scholarship award because it alleviated the stress of worrying about how to fund my undergraduate education without high debt and it gives me a chance to focus more on my

I hope you are doing well! I apologize for this delayed update, but here's a quick summary of my first two semesters so far at Wake Forest :-)

I have been a student at Citrus College since the Summer of 2014. Every semester has been a growing experience for myself as a person whether it's been good or bad, but I never stopped persevering my goal of reaching a university because of the amazing support system I've found on campus. Growing up in single parent household my mom had always stressed the importance of education, yet I felt like school wasn't for me. It was a chore, that here at Citrus College has turned into a pleasure. I feel at home whether I'm out running with the Cross Country team or at the Real Estate club banging out our next campus activity. It makes it easy to want to give my academics my best because I don't want to let down all the people around me who have invested

I have learned in this semester to improve my vocabulary, become intelligent student and develop effective strategies and look forward to my future careers goal.

I had a great freshmen year. I have met some really awesome folks. I've learned so much here and I'm constantly challenged. I've also made a ton of mistakes. But thankfully, I think that's a good thing because I know what to look out for this year.

Spring 2017 was the worst semesters for me in comparison to my entire college education. I returned back to college after leaving for six years. I started back spring 2016 at Cuny Hostos . I took 5 classes in the spring and Fall and one class over the summer. I maintained a GPA over 3.0. I had 3.54 the spring, I passed my summer class and I maintained a 3.94 for the fall . I transferred from there due to the distance and I attended my first semester at Brooklyn College.
