Nyu Personal Statement

The significant academic challenge I have faced, is my learning disability. in all my life I have this challenge, and I can’t run from these struggles. The struggles are from reading to math, and from math going into memory issues that I have to struggle with all my life.

The transition from being a child, dependent upon parents for everything, to an independent adult is one of the most stressful times a person will endure. Legally speaking, 18 is the age when you become an adult but the number doesn’t describe the responsibilities and independence you must take on. College is seen as the “big step” into the real world and many people struggle in choosing where to make their transition. I would like to take my “big step” by attending Florida Atlantic University.

I will possibly find myself involved in various programs outside the classroom which may include arts, media, cooking, culture, religion, recreation, technology, sports and athletics. I can even get the opportunity to join the student clubs and as a fact there are more than 50 clubs at NYU-AD. Or I could even create my own club to go out into the community and find myself involved in various service oriented activities. NYU-AD is also home for multidisciplinary labs and research centers. NYU can prepare me for the challenges and opportunities of this interconnected world. In addition to that, it creates a unique capacity for student to access the facilities at the entire university

Before I answer the questions posed, I believe an explanation is owed regarding this request for admission into Saybrook. I originally applied to The Chicago School of Professional Psychology seeking a degree in business psychology. Since the program was not ready to start for another year, it was suggested that I take courses in the international psychology program. I thoroughly enjoyed this new experience with an opportunity to “think global”. I optioned to remain in this program with a concentration in organizations and systems. As I sojourned through, I was always aware that there was still something missing. Although I loved being part of the IP program, my roots are deeply entrenched in the world of organizational development (OD).

Attending Kennesaw State University has been a very rewarding journey. As a current senior in college, I have been given the chance to experience the University environment. An environment full of my interaction with my fellow classmates working in study groups and tutoring sessions. Also having the option to sit in on my professor's 2nd lecture that you did not understand fully during your class period.

I chose NDSU because I feel like I was pretty well acquainted with the campus during my time in high school. Each summer, for FFA, my chapter, along with others from across the state, spent a week here competing in different agricultural competitions. Also, I talked with alumni from this nursing program, and they all said it was set up very well, and also put them on a track to getting a good job afterwards. When I came for a tour earlier this spring, I got to hear a speech from the Dean of nursing, and I just sort of felt like this was the right place. On a side note, I like being here because of the agricultural side of NDSU as well, even if I’m not necessarily going into a field pertaining to it. It seems more like home to me, when the person next to me, going into Vet Tech, rides horse as much as I did.

It is without a doubt, attending Rutgers University brings prestige to your name, and distinguishes you from the competition. With over two hundred and fifty years of rich history, Rutgers has been proudly represented by alumni as they continue into their career paths. Dating back to 1766 when Rutgers was first established, notable Rutgers alumni through the years have ranged from politicians such as Elizabeth Warren or Chris Christie to businessmen like David Stern, or even athletes such as Carli Lloyd. It is without a doubt, that Rutgers provides exceptional education as seen through what these alumni have been able to achieve. It is due to the combination of history and high level of education that I believe will help me achieve my career goals.

As a graduate student in School of Media and Communication, Pan-Atlantic University, I have acquired so many skills ranging from corporate communications, public relations, brand communications, advertising, Search Engine Marketing (SEM), advanced writing, public speaking, just to mention a few.

My mother always said to my siblings and me, “Fa bibia ma Nyame na fa w’akoma to wo yɛm”, which loosely translates to ‘We must give everything to God and humble yourself’. My mother, an immigrant from Ghana, would say in her native language, Asante Twi, to us whenever we dealt with financial difficulties. Irrespective of our financial status, my mother always believed that her children would aspire to greatness by getting an American college education. Rutgers University was the only college in the state my mother knew about and wanted one of her children to attend. Although I did not initially begin my undergraduate career at Rutgers, I ended here and it helped me to truly find myself and my path.

In 1993, I was awarded a full scholarship to the prestigious Music School at Ithaca

In ten years, perhaps I am well on my way to becoming a general manager (GM) of a professional sports team; my dream job. I am counting on my Fort Hays Statue University (FHSU) undergraduate experiences with mentors, hands on learning, and career planning to assist me in shaping that vision or to help me create a new one.

This spring, I will be completing my first year of graduate school in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of New Mexico. I graduated with a B.S. Degree in Environmental Science from UNM last year and was the first in my family to earn a college degree. I transferred to UNM in the fall of 2012 and have had the opportunity to interact with many professors, which I feel helped to influence my decision for graduate school.

Another factor that attracted me to NYU is the location of the campus, New York City. Students can develop themselves by taking advantage of their different environments in New York City. Being raised in a small, rural town there were not many opportunities where I could

NYU depicts the melting pot of cultures that New York City is. It offers students a social environment, academic rigor, and a prime area that is fundamental to making a successful and inspired student body. Living in New York City for so long you see diversity everywhere. In a diverse environment, for example, this one, students instruct each other in ways that ordinary classroom don't. Realizing that NYU has such a connection with group of students, I am overjoyed about joining that gathering of skilled
