Overcoming Challenges Of The Honors College At Villanova

I feel like this would be an opportunity to expand in depth in my discipline, as well as learn in a small classroom setting. Through the honors college curriculum, I feel like I have an advantage over my peers because of the unique quality of classes available to me. The opportunity to take these unique classes would make me into a more well rounded student, more understanding of the problems and challenges regarding the discipline that I choose to study. I am certain that the UIC honors college is a perfect fit for me because it fulfills my goal of undergraduate research, as well as enriching my undergraduate

For applicants to the Honors College, I would ensure the most qualified candidates admission to the college.We are not just seeking students with a high academic standard, but someone who can utilize and build upon the reputation of this program. To do this, I would ask a simple, logical question. However, it can elicit a multi-level response from students to see how they respond to the question posed. I would ask the question, “What do you intend on achieving while a member of the Honors Program?”

When first offered the opportunity to be an honors student, I was unsure what exactly what that would involve and how that would impact my college experience. I'm not sure why I ever worried in the first place, as being involved in the University Honors Program has been one of the most rewarding decisions that I have made here at the U. Firstly, I greatly enjoy my advisor, Kristin Farrell and what she has to offer. She is incredibly open-minded and it is so comforting knowing that she will be my advisor for all 4 years. I more than look forward to our meetings and come knowing that she will be able to understand my choice of classes and listen when I have concerns or ideas. For example, I have been toying with the idea of studying abroad since

The values held by Schedler Honors College mimic my own. Academic and personal excellence, inquiry and exploration, integrity and social responsibility, diversity, and inclusion, and interdisciplinary understanding are the core values of Schedler Honors College. My core values are to never stop growing, learning, and educating, to spread peace, love, and positivity, help the world, to be open-minded in all situations, to never judge, and to be a leader. The values that the Honor program stands for are inspiring and what every person should stand for. That is why I choose UCA to begin with, it is diverse, open, and a good community. Furthering myself into a community like the one at the Honors Program is ideal for happiness at UCA.

Before my Honors Mindset class I had never heard of many of the terms we are discussing. I had no knowledge of all these different ideas that every student should be aware of. Learning about these concepts made me think about the way i have learned and currently learn. I would love to be able to say that being in the honors program I already exhibit all of the qualities necessary to be truly successful in school and ultimately in life. Saying this would be a lie. I still have a long way to go in order to be successful in my endeavors. While thinking back on my career as a student I realized how guilty I was of not exhibiting the many qualities we have learned about. Along the way there have been times where I utilized the habitudes and times

My experiences and accomplishments throughout high school may qualify me to be accepted into NJIT Honors College. I have learned so much about civil engineering and computer graphic design through my internship at InfoTran engineers. I created models of intersections that would later be used by real surveyors in New York City. If accepted into Honors College, I would be able to use my skills that I learned here to design and create different things to be used in the real world. I have also had experience with web page design through a class in high school. I learned HTML code, css as well as photoshop. I have hands on experience on how to create the bones of a website using HTML. I can use this experience in the honors college because it gives

I believe the Murray State Honors Program will help me in furthering my education and enriching my college experience. This program will challenge me and prepare me for the career and life I want to lead. Through this program, I would meet like-minded students from other cultures and learn from professors who are highly skilled in their fields.

The interpersonal, scientific and research skills I would acquire from this program will provide a solid foundation for taking the next step to the graduate or PhD level. This distinguished program will help drive me

During my time in the Honors Program I have noticed a change in myself. I have become more courageous, more confident, more willing to learn- to change. My fear of failure is what kept me from trying new things. My fear of not sounding like everyone else kept me from speaking up. The Honors Program has taught me to embrace my differences and let my voice be heard no matter how bad it shakes. It has given me the skills and assurance I needed; to take with me on my next journey, whatever it may

My interest in the Honors program began when I started investing my personal time on learning. Many adolescents my age follow the "status qua". The idea that going to college and getting a degree will get them a higher paying job, while that may be true, the reality is earning an education is a personal journey to me. Many slack off and quit or others pursue their life long goals. I want to be the student that studies to understand theories. Phoenix College was my first interest in academic learning because it is known to be the oldest community colleges from all across the nation and I believe the endless programs that are offered here are beneficial to everyone. Not only that but it is also known for its diversity. The diversity is so immense

I would to an extent agree and disagree with this point of view. It is understandable that higher income and higher status students, students who are typically typecast as being privileged and/or entitled, seem to draw towards institutions like honors programs. An honors program certainly strikes itself as a place that those students would believe themselves deserving to attend. However when looking at these programs the main goal is to cultivate a space in which all students who worked diligently and strove towards high academic achievement can be rewarded for their efforts and further their education. Most privileged and/or entitled students don’t exhibit these qualities and would not be of much benefit to the college community as a whole.

The Honors Program is exciting yet rigorous, demanding students who are serious and want to learn. It opens doors for students looking to expand their academic horizons by giving them access to alumni, research opportunities, and stimulating classes. JMU should embrace students that would take advantage of these benefits and be able to handle its pressure. I am confident that I embody the characteristics of the Honors program because of my curiosity, independence, and spirit.

What special qualities do you bring which will contribute to the ethnic, cultural, and/or intellectual diversity of the Honors Program

An Honors college is a college for students who like to challenge themselves. It has challenged classes. And I believe these classes are necessary because it helps students to think in high level and learn an interesting information not just basic. Also, this class push students to achieve their goals. What is more beautiful than the feelings when the person challenge himself/herself to solve the problem so the person try and try again, at the end that person solve problem. I think these classes are so important because it helps to direct students' energy into the education which will help the country to grow. In addition, the honors standards for these classes used in the real life in many different ways, such as the doctor need to be smart

Learning and exploring is part of my journey. I love to engage myself in my community, academics, and leadership position. When there’s an opportunity presented, an opportunity to help me become the best student, I always step up and take it.
