NDSU Personal Statement

Out of all of the skin care products in the world, your bathroom cabinet needs to be filled with products researched and designed by me. When I entered high school, I discovered my passion for selecting lip sticks, lip glosses, lotions, perfumes, and makeup foundations. You name it. After learning about the connections between the information in my chemistry class and these items, a light bulb went off! I maintained an A average in chemistry throughout the whole year! Additionally, in 2014, I became a student in the Academy of Engineering and Technology, which also heightened my interests in chemistry. In a science fair at that academy, there was a chemistry course where we made colorful slime, and during that process, I learned that I get an adrenaline rush when I am mixing different chemicals together to see what the outcome is. Majoring in chemistry at Norfolk State University will definitely prepare me for a very successful future in chemistry! My ultimate goal is to conduct research and development for chemical cosmetics. I plan to obtain employment at the greatest companies in the world such as L'Oréal and Avon.

When I went to the open house ,once I saw the building and atmosphere I could see myself at NYU Tisch. At Tisch I hope to perceive things differently. As a writer it brings me the best of excitement because all I ever wanted to do was write, imagine and act .It takes a lot for a school to be this diverse, social and educated rigorously with great academics and still make people feel like they are welcome as a community.

I chose Northwest because once I stepped on the campus, I felt that I belonged. It seemed inviting and reminded me of home. I instantly knew this was where I had to go. Other campuses were so big that I was afraid I would get lost and felt unsafe. However, at Northwest, I felt at ease. Also, I learned that I would be able to attend Northwest and my already-earned associate's degree would be accepted. That was the an important factor. The past two years I have worked very hard to earn my associate’s degree while still in high school and wanted it to be accepted and I still be considered as a freshman.

I have applied to the University of Wisconsin-Madison mainly because of its excellent business program and its ability to place a large amounts of students into their desired-careers when they graduate. Personally, I would love to be a part of the Wisconsin Undergraduate (BBA) Program and major in Finance, Investment, and Banking. Seeing the tremendous job placements, the challenging course-work, and interesting culture that surrounds UW-M, I cannot wait to begin my studies there.

As a curious and excited student, my dream is to enrich myself in an education that is undeniably diverse and rich in culture. The epitome of what I am searching for is found holistically at New York University. I am a person who becomes inspired while being around others who illuminate that inspiration. After learning about NYU, it is clear to see that each and every person is invested in their future and they take pride in their school, which is what I strive to do. I believe inspiration comes from within, but when it is ignited it cannot be stopped. If I am given the opportunity to be apart of the incomparable experience that NYU emulates, I plan on being the best student that I can possibly be. I will work efficiently and diligently, but

From a young age, I was drawn to the healthcare field, not because the amount of money doctors, nurses or other health professionals made, but because of the dedication and commitment I saw on their faces helping someone in need. As a little child becoming a doctor or a nurse was the ideal profession my parents wanted for me. I had high hopes that one day I would become a nurse. However, that dream came to a halt, when I decided to pursue other endeavors within the healthcare field. Spring 2015, my first year of nursing school was not as successful as I anticipated.

Ever since I was a young child, I aspired to attend The University of Alabama. However, not everything worked out the way I had planned. Attending a large division one university is very expensive. As I grew older, I soon realized attending that school was not the best option for me personally. After careful consideration I decided I would like to pursue a career in the field of nursing. I looking into several different schools with nursing programs, and I stumbled upon The University of West Alabama. At first I was not sure; so I booked a visit to see where I might spend the next couple years of my life. The campus was beautiful and the instructors were very pleasant. I soon realized West Alabama was the perfect school for me. After being in college for a month, I started noticing the struggles many of my peers were facing including: disappointing ones parents, failing to achieve an acceptable grade, and maintaining a social life

As I was going through the university official website, I was impressed with Davis, a graduate of Economics with Mathematical Emphasis in UW-M who is honored with Schwarzman scholarship. I found him even more interesting to know that he served as the Director of Operations of The Madison Fund that provided affordable loans to small businesses and low-income entrepreneurs in the Madison area. Looking at his achievements, I believe that at University of Wisconsin, I cannot only succeed and flourish as a student, but even help to contribute to the society.

NMSU has not only has not only the loving family oriented environment that I was raised in, but Las Cruces itself is a city with a rare environment that I have not encountered anywhere else. Las Cruces has the people that are community oriented, and in my short travels and encounters with them, they have already taught me so much about what it means to be a part of a community. The way they encourage youth to go out and learn new things, is something I had always looked for growing up, and I know that teaching, volunteering, and being a part of my community is a huge part of what I want to continue doing when I go to college.

My parents have always emphasized the importance of collecting and analyzing data. They once brought me to a stock exchange to watch how all the values change in real-time, and they explained that stock traders need to collect, analyze, and interpret millions of data points in order to understand whether the stock prices will rise or fall. Since then, they have inspired me to see things through the lens of a data scientist. Whether I am reading news articles online, following the stock market, or doing any other activity, I try to examine the underlying data to grasp an even deeper understanding. At North Carolina State University, I applied my passions toward a double major in statistics and economics. Both of these fields share a common principle of data-driven research and analysis. My goal is to continue my studies through the Advanced Analytics program at North Carolina State University.

1. I choose to participate in UYFA because it gave me the opportunity to improve on my leadership skills, to help my community as well as abroad and to continue strengthening my relationship with God to be the best man I can be headed into college.

I came to Canada in summer of 2005 in pursuit of a doctoral degree and got admitted at Dalhousie University. I got a fully funded research position to pursue a project, which was very much in line with the project I did during my Master’s thesis (i.e., finite element analysis (FEA) and testing of advanced material such as composites and smart shape-memory alloys). Thanks to my cross-disciplinary thesis advisor at Dalhousie, during the four years I was engaged in my doctoral studies, I was exposed to a wide range of inter-disciplinary engineering courses problems through various departments (Civil, Mechanical and Materials Engineering departments), and gained significant amount of knowledge and hands-on experience in conducting FEA and testing.

The first day of classes came quicker than I ever expected it to, but I guess that is kind of suspected. As I was sitting in my chair near the back of the room by the door, and listened to what is expected of us, the assignments we will be doing, and how the whole semester is going to be laid out, and then that’s when I realized, I had a reason for all of the stressing I had been doing the weeks prior to class starting. The first couple class

When I started school a few years back, I wasn’t really sure if becoming an RN was something I really wanted. I’m compassionate, caring, and friendly, but somehow I was still unsure if I was going to fit in this kind of environment. I asked people who were already in the nursing field about their opinions on this career. I searched around to know the good and bad about becoming a nurse. I wanted to know what to expect. I wanted to find a sign, a specific word or line that tells me “This is what you should do”. But I realize that the main point here is to focus on me. I needed to know what I wanted, and what I enjoy doing. I was too busy and confused listening to other’s people opinions and experiences that I forgot to listen to my own opinion. I forgot to listen to my own voice. Who am I? What do I want? What makes me happy? So I start looking at myself and see the qualities I have. I’m friendly. I talked to everyone. I’m generous and caring. I have compassion for others in need. Helping people overcome their problems fills my heart with joy. I want everyone to be happy because I believe that if everyone is happy I will be too. All this qualities seem fitting to be a nurse, but do I have what it takes? Am I strong enough to do such duties that required to take care of a patient? Health wise, I don’t have a chronic disease, nor do I feel weak to carry such a long hour’s shift. “I’m ok”, “I can do this” I though. I’m smart and I
