Personal Statement For Pursuing College

In the future, I plan on being a veterinarian to help animals who are hurt or sick. Ever since I was little I always knew that I loved animals and wanted to help them. That’s when I decided I wanted to be a vet. To start, I plan on going to Huntley High School and graduating. Then, I want to go to college right after high school. A college that I would really like to go to is the University of Wisconsin because of their amazing veterinary program. However, any other college with a good medical program would be amazing. After completing all of my degrees, I would then like to get a job as a small animal vet out in the country. I really enjoy the country and would eventually love to live there as well. I cannot wait to help animals and do a job

My most significant endeavor since attending community college has been has been protesting Capitol Hill at Washington, D.C. demanding congress to pass a clean Dream Act. As a member of the organization United We Dream, I went with them on a 16 hour long bus trip to the capital from Miami. Once we got to the capital, we went to a local church to practice how the protest was going to happen. At the church, I met many students like myself who all came to voice their demands to congress. During the lunch break, I met a student my age in the same grade. He noticed I was wearing a University of Southern California jacket and asked if I went there. I told him that I was a community college student at Miami Dade College planning on transferring there, that's when he told me he also attended a community college in Colorado and was planning to attend the same university.

Growing up in a small town, with the knowledge of a small town community can have an effect on you. Having the respect and dignity to know between right and wrong adds and interesting aspects into a life style. Growing up in a small community makes you realize what it is like to have small class rooms and having your teachers know you by a first name basis.Knowing everyone on each sport team because “everyone knows everyone in a small town”. I had the ability to be able to ride my bike down the street without a real question of my safety where I grew up in Worland Wyoming. I have different academic interests than others may, I enjoy different extracurricular activities than other students, and life experiences that are unlike anyone else that have shaped me into who I am today.

Graduating high school was an exciting time, but I felt lost. I wasn't sure of my career goals or what I wanted to accomplish at University. When I first decided to attend community college, I felt hesitant because I did not take the traditional route like my other classmates. However, community college was cheaper and would give me time to figure out the career path I wanted to take.

Ever since I was little the career that has sparked my interest and I want to pursue is veterinary. My father who loves animals has influenced me to be a veterinarian. We have always been close and he has inspired me to go higher in life. My one goal in life is to get my masters degree of veterinary medicine and have my own pet clinic. The university I want to attend and have gotten information about is UC Davis. UC Davis is known for having great majors and one of them is veterinary medicine.

When going into the 5th grade, I would drive by kipp every single day. Every time I would drive by, I would constantly tell my mom that I wanted to attend kipp my 5th grade year. When I got accepted into kipp, I was so excited. At the age of 10, I was being introduced to college. My very first homeroom was Brown University. Kipp pushed students to want to attend college to better their futures. I stayed in kipp from 5th-12th grade. Those years in kipp, we went on plenty of college tours so that the students could get a feeling of how college is. In high school when preparing for college, kipp offered so much help when it came down to ACT prep and also preparing for college interviews. Kipp offers plenty of support, they want to see their students shine. For instance, in my 12th

As I go into my second semester of Northampton Community College my interests have certainly changed. I have turned to a student who thrives to succeed in my current goal which is a stepping stone in my life time goals, this stepping stone is to attend Lehigh University upon completion of receiving my associates degree. With this stepping stone in mind I realized I had to make my academic resume stand out to say the least. I talked to many professors of this goal and they all told me the same thing honors, so I worked my hardest and the work was certainly worth it I got in. That wasn't enough for me though I am going into my second semester with a plan I plan on joining two more academic clubs Phi Theta Kappa and Psi Beta (with my passion for

Personal Statement I have a passion for sport. I always enjoy engaging myself in various ball games or Physical Education activities and would like to pursue a career in athletic training. I have always had a keen interest in the practical and theoretical work concerning Physical Education. Sport has always been an important part of my life since I started playing basketball at the age of nine. I have played at many different levels ranging from school basketball to playing in my local league and representing my region.

This is the year when I want to achieve is to get a good grade on all my classes, so that I can get a good college, also if I have a good college, then I can get a good job at the future. If I have a very good grade, my mom led me go to Korea, and get a lot of stuff for me, also If I have a good grade then I can go to UCLA,USC, and other college, I wish I can get into the first college in the world, and tell my family that i make my goal, and I’m so proud of myself. If something I don’t understand something, I’ll ask my English Teacher Ms. Chen, she is a very nice and kind teacher, she not like the teachers outside of school, she won’t be mean to if you doing what you are suppose to do in class, but if you didn’t follow direction, then that

When I attend college, I would like to major in Chemical Engineering and minor in Global Studies; furthermore, I aspire to someday change the standards and quality of healthcare around the world through my knowledge of Chemistry and international affairs. In order to achieve these goals, I must thrive in all of my college courses but this is far easier said than done.

I am a college student who is extremely passionate about her education. I love to have the peace of mind that my only worry is passing my courses. I am blessed to be presented with countless of opportunities to aid my education, as all my focus can be solely on my education since I know tuitions are paid for. My parents and I are from Haiti, where opportunities similar this are extremely rare. In 2007, my mother and I came to America, but my father stayed behind, for his immigration process took longer. It was extremely difficult, especially for my mother who, you could say, needed to take a role of a single parent for a couple of years. My parents traveled to another country, left their families behind and gave me a chance at a life that they

Everyone around me knows that I am absolutely obsessed with finding a job in my field of study. I always felt I was an average person. I had good grades, my family is middle class, and I believed that hard work and “buckling my boot straps” would pay off. Boy, was I wrong. I graduated as a Bio-medical Engineer. I believed it didn’t matter what school I went to because my major is respected. I didn’t expect for it to only be respected and not get me a job opportunity. I pressured myself for four years taking 16-18 units in order to graduate in a timely manner. Finally, when I got out the other end I found myself thrust into the world. The world that preached “we need more diversity in engineering”, and “we are always looking to hire women of

For many, after graduating high school the next big step is college. I never asked myself why or if I even wanted to. Yet, since I was not yet ready to join the work force, and didn’t want to disappoint my parents, I simply followed the path that I was supposed to take. For a while I had no direction, but through the loss of my high school English teacher and my dream of making my family proud, I discovered that college was the place I wanted and needed to be.

One of my academic goals is to get the best education possible at Allan Hancock College before I transfer. I will accomplish this by always paying attention to all my teachers and do all my work and most importantly make school my number one priority. Another academic goal that I have is to transfer to Cal Poly or Long Beach and obtain my Master’s degree in education. I also want to graduate with honor and with a 3.5 GPA or above. I decided that I wanted to be a teacher because I like helping people out and also I enjoy working with kids. I selected these goals because my economic background is not the great, most of the money that my family makes goes to the rent and daily expenses. We live in a small apartment and we are a family of five; we don’t usually go out and eat at restaurants only in special occasions.

Throughout most of my life I have had one consistent goal; to become a veterinarian. I have had a continuous and solid passion for animals in all respects. This passion and love has fueled my in striving to achieve the dreams I have for myself after high school. The beginning of this story begins long before high school though.
