Personal Statement: I Want To Major In College

After having been in my first college year for a couple of months, I still had no idea what I was leaning towards for a major. Within these first couple of months I had learned that Biomedical Studies was not something that I was sure of, along with many other careers and majors that I learned about in the Compass class that were not for me. Tired of not knowing what I wanted to do, I sat myself down and did some researched. I came upon

When it’s time to starting making solid decisions about enrolling in college, many people have questions about how to choose a college major. Selecting a

Pursuing college has always been one of my biggest goals to achieve in life. After high school, I will higher my education by attending college. My ultimate goal will be to one day become a veterinarian. The love and compassion I have for animals plays a big role in choosing this course of study. Growing up on a ranch, I am exposed to animals such as horses, cows, dogs, chickens, and rabbits. Tending to the animals and keeping them in good health gives me the experience I need to see if the veterinarian study is fitting for myself. Furthermore, I plan to attend BYU-Idaho which offers a pre vet course that gives students who are seeking to become veterinarians the opportunity to intern at a vet

I have always been a fun and happy person. I loved to dance, go shopping, hang out with friends,watch movies with my family and go on vacations. Many people go through adversity that change them in significant ways and I was one of them. My way of getting through my issues was going to activities such as dance, cheerleading, and wrestling and it seemed to be working until one day at wrestling practice where I hurt my foot and had to go to the nurse. At the nurses office I had to take a survey that asked if I had ever been sexually assaulted, I answered truthfully and circled “yes.” I figured they would ask me about it however I didn’t expect them to call my mom and social services. I cried

From taking my first steps at the age of 8 months old, to walking alone to a friend’s house at 3(kids don’t try this at home), followed by cooking dinners autonomously at 10 years old, my life has accumulated to a series of beautiful memories that my father has meticulously sculpted to raise me as an independent young lady. He taught me the virtues of such self governing and the beauty of freedom that such a gift dons. Every day I strive to honor such teachings. It is no wonder that these lessons have led me to strive to pay for college by myself.

Ever since my brother came back home from Illinois State University with many positive comments about the college I have wanted to go there. He told me about all the different things one can do there, and how easy it was to make friends. He also talked about how great all his professors were. I was instantly intrigued by all the university has to offer in activities and academics.

Going into college, I expect many challenges. The biggest challenge I expect is all of the environmental changes. For eight years now, I’ve been attending Julia R. Masterman School. For eight years, I’ve seen the same people, at the same place, every single day. Every day, I’ve woken up to the same daily routine. I wake up, go to school, come home, eat, sleep, and then repeat. Usually, there’s someone to wake me or feed me, but in college, there won’t be. Ultimately, I’ll be responsible for myself and everything single thing that involves me.

To be honest, I am not really sure what profession I want to pursue after college. I would actually like to try many different things in hopes of finding a career that matters to me personally and that is why I am drawn to the idea of a liberal arts education. I am drawn to the schools peaceful surrounding community and its motivation to instill a sense of civic duty. When I visited Bates over the summer I was intrigued by the campus and the students that were still there. The serene nature of Maine was another one of the factors that interested me. I was in awe at how tightly connected the alumni was to the school and how all of the students were treated the same. The idea that no one will slip through the cracks and that the teachers and

Getting a college education was never a thing I saw myself doing as a child. College wasn't a coveted thing in my household, I was always told that I needed to get a job and work for the rest of my life and that if I didn't do well in school, then I wouldn't get into any college. I had never been the best student, so I assumed that I would never get to go to college. I only recently started wanting to get a college education because I really want to work in the United Nations. Even after graduating high school with acceptance to a university overseas I thought I should take a year off to think about if I really wanted to continue my education or not.

According to Zadie Smith, she states “ In my situation, every time I write a sentence, I am thinking not only of the people I ended up in college with but my siblings, my family, my school friends, and the people from my neighborhood. I have come to realize that this is an advantage, really; it keeps you on your toes.” ( Smith ). When I first arrived at Brunswick Community College, I did not have a for sure plan on what I wanted to do with my future. To be honest, I was not really that concerned about my future. I was more concerned about what I could do in baseball and how far I could go in the game. It has taken me my first semester in college to understand how truly blessed I am to even be able to play baseball in college along with

When I was going to high school I was thinking of going to college to finish my schooling and to say I had finish my school and to have my adulterous of me. Before my mom died she wanted me to finish my schooling because she didn't wanted me to end like my mom and dad without a college diploma or degree. I wanted to join Colorado Christian College because I do go to church on Sunday's and Wednesday's and I wanted to have a degree that will help me with my goals for the feature. My goal is to get a degree and have my mom's last wish when I went to the hospital. I wanted to go to college to finish my degree because someday I would like to have kids and they will say my mom did college I can. I actually wanted my church and family and friends

Throughout the process of completing my academic studies, The BSN program has given me a solid foundation toward pursuing graduate studies. My focus is on the elder adults and broadening my professional knowledge and experience in the professional study of nursing. Some specific areas and courses are, palliative, adult critical care, Critical Care Nursing of older adults, and Introduction to Gerontology I have completed. This passions I have for pursing future graduate studies has grown and evolved in to my fundamental goal in life. I will use this determination to propel my career to a higher academic standard in the profession of nursing.

What i want to be in college is a major league baseball player and my goal for college is to get strait a’s and all ways give school my all.

My biggest motivation to become a Columbia Souther University student was the birth of my child. I want best for her, like every good parent. After some researching in the internet, I found out that Human Resources Manager is highly paid profession and because I already had a degree in this specialization, the CSU transfer half of my credits. That made me happy because now I can take only one class at a time and I will finish my degree in 5 years. It will be about time for my daughter to go kinder garden. I am not rushing myself because I want to spend more time to teach my daughter everything before she will go to school and have more daughter-mother time. If in the future I will try to take two classes after

“And in life, it is all about choices we make. And how the direction of our lives comes down to the choices we choose”-Catherin Pulsifer. Choosing a major is one of the most important decisions people make as a high school/college student. As a college freshman most people expect you to know exactly what you want to do with your life. The reality is that most college students go undecided for a very long time or continually switch their major from one thing to another because they either don’t know what they want they want to do or they are scared to pick something in fear of choosing the wrong major and being stuck with it. For the longest time, I didn’t have any idea what I wanted to do. My mind went back and forth for months on end trying to decide which direction to go. I went from nursing to music, from music to business administration and from business administration to where I am today, special education.
