Personal Narrative: My College Career At Florida Gulf Coast

My experience at Stetson as a freshman has been amazing. Everyone is very helpful, welcoming, and friendly. The teachers actually care

Finally, FAU is perfect for me because of its location. Both the climate and its distance from home strengthen my resolve to go to FAU. The college campus is only 45 minutes away from my home. This will allow me the freedom to exercise my independence, gain new experiences, and still feel the security of being near

There are several things I hope to gain from my experience as a student at California Baptist University. Such things include, a community of God loving, supporting and encoring friends, a Christian based education and opportunities to grow into the person God created me to be.

I choose Pacific Lutheran University because of the focus you put on helping individuals grow in all aspects of their lives as stated in the school motto. It gives the promise that it will help the student achieve success as an individual and as a professional working for the better of the community. A plus is that PLU has a great history that would be a privilege to be part of.

My history with Florida A & M University started before I was born. Looking back from day one, my family specifically my mom, cousin and aunts instilled in me what was the definition of a true Rattler. Some have defined a true Rattler as a go getter who stops at nothing to accomplish their goal. Some have defined a true Rattler as a well spoken and confident student attending FAMU. Others, simply would define a true Rattler as a student who has fallen on the hill going to class. Considering these definitions and countless others, I possess the solid qualities for attending Florida A & M University and becoming a true Rattler.

It is inevitable that sacrifices will have to be made when choosing schooling, but for some, only nonessential sacrifices; the quality and content of the academic program cannot and should not be sacrificed for a change in location. However, financial needs are also important to consider and may unfortunately be an overriding factor. Taking into account all of the criteria previously described, many believe that the best school of the two is Clemson University. Although not as fulfilling in the extracurricular aspects, it has an extremely extensive and reputable engineering program whose costs will not be excessive. In addition, its proximity to mountains is convenient, and the nearby coastline is appealing as well. However, in light of the extremely selective process that each applicant undergoes before being accepted, it is realistic to say that there is a fair chance that most students who apply may not be accepted. In this case, another great choice would be the University of South Carolina. Although not exactly on par with the engineering program at Clemson, it is relatively strong. In addition, the full cost will most likely be alleviated with state scholarships. Although these colleges seem like the correct choice for now, it is inevitable that students preferences may change and with it their choices in colleges. However, with experience in researching and deciding

Florida State University is one of the oldest sites in Tallahassee with a great future for their upcoming students while still accomplishing many goals today. An American public space grant and sea grant research university located on a 1,391.54 acre campus in Tallahassee, Florida, United States.Well if you didn’t know what a space grant university is, here you go Sandra May say it 's an institution who are working to expand opportunities for Americans to understand and participate in NASA’s aeronautics by enhancing science and engineering education(nasa.gov/space grant).

One reason Gulf Coast is the best option is because it has weekly field activities. One activity the school offers is kayaking. I know I would enjoy kayaking because I was able to go kayaking and snorkeling at summer camp. Snorkeling was fun because of the stingrays and other fish. This school will provide similar opportunities for students to interact with a variety of animals. Besides

The main reason I see UCF as one of the best colleges for myself is the campus’s distance away from my home. The UCF campus is within driving distance of where I currently live, allowing me to live in the same house while I attend all my classes each day. Reputation has also always been important to me when looking for a college. If a place does not have a good reputation, I do not see much reason to give it a chance. However, UCF is known as one of the biggest colleges in the US and one of the most successful. I also had two friends attend UCF, one for the exact same major as I plan to go for and one that took a very similar major. Both of them have highly recommended UCF for the major I wish to take. Though having this kind of reputation is nice, I was told multiple times to visit the campus myself because not every college is made for everyone. So, I took a tour of UCF on a school sponsored trip and found everything I had heard to be true. The campus was beautiful and the staff were all very kind. After spending the day on the campus I knew this college, after everything I had heard and where it was located, was the one I wanted to

McNeese State University was my top pick when graduating from high school in 2010 and now that I am wanting to go back to school I could not think of a better university to attend. The faculty and staff are always willing to go above and beyond for students at McNeese State University, making my selection choice that much

Choosing the “perfect” college to attend, may be one of the hardest decisions a teenager will ever have to make in their lifetime. There are many factors that one must consider in order to make the right choice. This decision is very difficult because various schools bring many different pros and cons to the table. Does the college have the sport one wants to play? Does the college have many different clubs one can join?

Florida state college is a higher-education institution that is driven by clearly stipulated values. It is not allied with any other private or public university or college in Florida or elsewhere. However, for an appropriate design as an employer organization, there are a number of aspects that have to be given priority over others. I would rank them in this order; mission success, strategy or structure, accountability or adaptability, and lastly, ladders or rings.

Each college has something different to offer, being admitted to the University of Florida, one of the highest rated school in the state, would give me a countless number of social, academic, and athletic possibilities. However, with the vast variety of opportunities presented by this University, there are three specific things that I would do if I attended this school.

University of California: Berkeley (UCB) is public university located in Berkeley, California and it is ranked twenty first in the nation according to US News Best Colleges. I am looking for a school that is near home, is academically rigorous, has school spirit, and offer financial aid packages that my family and I can commit to. I consider UC Berkeley a good fit for me because it is five hours and forty-five minutes driving away from home and it is an hour flight away, they offer my top three major choices, offer many study abroad programs, is a nice city that is 10 miles away from San Francisco, and have many options to finance my education. As of now, I consider UC Berkeley one of my top choices for a variety of reasons.

Fontbonne University was an easy choice for me to attend in the fall of 2015. I knew I wanted to go to a school that offered Fashion Merchandising and had a small community. Once I heard about Fontbonne from my college guidance coordinator at my high school, I knew I needed to go visit. I visited Fontbonne in the spring of 2014 and I fell in love with the campus, the school, and the community. I did look at a few other schools, but none of them had the same impact as FBU. I did not make my decision to attend Fontbonne University until the fall of 2014 when I came back for a second tour. The ambassadors did an excellent job of showcasing the campus and making me feel at home before I was even a student.
