Post Graduate College Student Analysis

Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) has an established community living agreement, which directs all its members on how to carry themselves within the institution’s environment, as well as in the community. The institution’s mission is to offer higher education within a Christian community where character is modeled and transformed to express Christian faith. Students who join the institution are expected to maintain good conducts, which are guided by the Holy Spirit.

I strongly believe that every failure is a learning experience that should be taken as a lesson to grow from. I previously attended a 4 year university that became too much for me; attending school full-time, working 35 hours per week while trying to figure out what it is that I really wanted out of this university experience. I ended up failing most of my classes, putting my health at risk drowned by the tremendous amount of stress and just wanted to completely give up. Looking for a fresh start I decided to leave my university, and attend Norwalk Community College. Though this decision created self-doubt in the beginning, it soon came to my realization that it was the best decision I ever made. Immersed in an environment full of positive people, I was able to grow from the experience.

What is the main thing that students look at before attending a school? Tuition fees. Everyone have a tendency of looking at the tuition fee and setting there life goal if they should spend that much just to attend school. On a Tulsa Community College site, the publisher of “Cost of Attendance” asserts that TCC offers the cheapest fee’s. As the publisher of the site, they state That the “Tuitions fees are $2,800” the “Book and Supplies are $1,560” the “Rooms are $8,694” the “Boards are $2,367” and “Transportation is $1,178”. These are by far the lowest prices to be observed for a high school senior. Tulsa Community College is really doing it’s best to help and support their students. You save a lot of money with these kinds of prices. Now turning

Going to community college was not part of the original game plan when deciding where to apply junior year of high school. The original plan was to attend a college I was accepted into in New York city and it seemed as easy as clicking accept until it came to planning out the financial logistics and reality took the upper hand. Almost two years later and I feel the relief of being debt-free but there also lies the lingering feeling of regret. The difficulty lies within having to stay home for two years and a consistent feeling of being held back while watching high school classmates make moving strides toward their desired four-year institution. The inability to relate to my closest friends and feeling less than others led me to have a low

I would like to start off this letter of appeal by thanking you for the opportunity to explain my past mistakes and outline my plans for improvement in upcoming semesters.

UCSB does not offer a Post-Bac program. Each semester for the past two years I have approached professors individually to ask for permission to take their classes, and then enrolled via UCSB’s Open University program. In each course I have been the only non-undergraduate student. During this time I’ve jumped through many hoops and had to convince many skeptical teachers and administrators to allow me the opportunity to enroll in these heavily impacted classes. This past spring the program director of UCSB Extension asked if I would be willing to write up my academic story to be featured in UCSB Extension’s marketing materials. While it is an honor to be recognized as an exemplary student, it was really tenacity and perseverance that enabled

This previous fall term, was my first semester at Pierce College. I was rather excited to finally start college, until it was time to finally register for my classes. During registration, I could get only three out of the four classes I had needed. The fourth and final class was Chemistry 60, which had no available units. Since there were no available units and the ones that did become available, were at unpleasant times (such as 6:30pm to 9:45pm and so forth).

  My first improvement this semester has been learning how to manage time. Juggling over five college classes can be difficult, especially when it comes to turning in all assignments on time. The key to earning a good grade is learning how to manage your time efficiently. I used a daily planner to help organize my thoughts, plans, study times, and out of school activities. This way I always knew exactly what I had to be doing and always had enough time to study or to turn in assignments. Before discovering the

I am currently a fourth year doctoral student within the the pharmaceutical sciences graduate program at the College of Pharmacy. I have finished the course work and passed the preliminary comprehensive exam. I have also completed an oral pre-defense for my dissertation, in which I presented the first 3 chapters (introduction, literature review, and research methodology) in front of the designated committee members.

There are three major categories of degree available for a post-secondary student. Which are Associate, Bachelors, and Masters all three of these are degrees you can fulfilled your education and career in? Most of the time it takes about 2-8 years to get depending on the degree and study field in interest.

For this semester, my main goal is to just study harder for all of my classes than I did for the previous semester. I may have maintained good grades in the previous semester, but I just want to push myself harder and dedicate myself into school than I did before. Since my major is Nursing, it is really important that I work the best of my ability to do well in school so I can make it to the nursing program here at CSU Stanislaus. Now that I have gotten a taste of what college is like and how harder it is going to be as my time here at this university progresses, I want to do everything in my power to study hard and make it all worthwhile in the end. When I think about college, I also think about money. My parents are spending so much money

Being involved in a tremendous amount of activities, ranging from academics to a social life, I have adapted to keeping everything organized. With the help of my trusty little “Student Academic Planner,” I now have the ability to see all of my extracurricular and student life at once. Without my planner, I would be lost and confused about when assignments were due or what time I was supposed to meet someone. Just academics alone have filled out my calendar with exams, papers, and many other assignments. The extra spaces are filled with church activities, volunteer work, birthdays, and plans with friends. Each and every day of the week has something marked down to remind me that I have plans that day. Most freshmen do not realize how curtail

Being a high school student has never been easy. There are expectations to receive exceptional grades, be involved in many activities, and keep a part-time job. Surviving in high school requires many skills and qualities to make your time easier. Work ethic, perseverance, patience, and responsibility, are characteristics I feel I possess as a high school student and future college student.

The graduate profile, put into place by Prosper ISD, creates an environment that readies students for the future. This profile holds high schoolers to a higher standard and pushes them to exceed their limits. With the opportunity to take dual-credit, AP, Pre-AP and specialty-based courses, students grow in their academic abilities, and learn how to manage and succeed in challenging classes. This year, I am taking dual credit U.S. History; unlike my other classes, this class has taught me the challenges of college and has given me a glimpse of the next four years. When I do go to college, I will know what to expect and be ready to learn. By challenging students in the classroom, while they are still in high school, schools teach their students
