My professional goal is to become a psychiatrist while contributing to brain related research because I believe the brain is one of the most powerful things on earth but our understanding of it is fairly limited. However, in order to reach my professional goals I need to reach my academic goals.
My goal for this year is to continue my 4.0 GPA while being more active in college. I am accomplishing this goal by being signing up for challenging courses, being part of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), signing up for SCIR 297 (scientific research), enrolling in Maryland Transfer Advantage Program (MTAP) and being accepted into Graduate and Transfer expansion program (GT-Step). In the near future I will run for student senate, join MC leads, volunteer, and
My goals for the remainder of my high school career is to maintain my GPA, but also get myself more involved socially and physically active.
Upon graduation, it is my goal to be a distinguished graduate and maintain my 4.0 GPA. When I completed my freshman year, I was unhappy with my GPA, but had the motivation to raise it nearly three points higher the following year. Doing well in school has not only come to me because I know it is necessary in order to have a great future, but it is also used to challenge me. Having this challenge allows me to complete my work on time and award myself with the feeling that I know I did exceptional on an assignment.
The professional goal that I have set for myself to achieve is to be the Head of Sports Medicine in college, which is similar to an administrative job. My primary purpose after years of studying in a major university is to become an athletic trainer at a Community College, where I will have both the option to teach and also to be an assistant Athletic Director. I had graduated from a Community College in New Jersey. Athletic training staff have a lot of influence and help every athlete to transfer and continue their education and their sport if the athlete wishes to do so. The head athletic trainer, Lisa, had helped every student-athlete achieve their goal to continue playing or go to college for an excellent education program. My professional
My mother battled mental illness during her life. Unfortunately she lost her battle in September 2013. Since her surprising death I have soul-searched and researched ways to help others like my mother.That introspection has brought me to your program, Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling.
In my future endeavors, I would like to pursue a master’s degree in nursing as an education specialist. This specialty of nursing is something that has always intrigued me and after working within the hospital setting I know this is where I aspire to be. I believe helping current and future nurses expand upon their knowledge would be very fulfilling for me.
Knowing what I excel at has given me the ambition to rise to the challenge of earning a college degree. I have attempted on line school seven years ago and I had to make the difficult decision to withdraw from school when my family and financial obligations became overwhelming. I look back on that experience and have been able to analyze myself and now know what was lacking in my life at that time. I was not close with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I was attempting to control all the angles of my life alone instead of allowing the Lord to help me. In the midst of my struggle for control I was unsure of my own strengths, passions, and abilities. Since that time I have been working in the human services field as the assistant director of a local adolescent girls group home. Working with at risk
The professional goals that I have set for myself are to gain internship experience in my field while pursuing my degree along with networking to gain mentorship and interview experience. The personal goals that I have set for myself include gaining more leadership experience and improving on my organization skills to become a more efficient person. My motivation for pursuing a degree is to be able to continue my education and finish at the collegiate level. The degree that I am pursuing will help me achieve my long-term professional and personal goals by giving me an advantage in regards to job hunting and networking. It will open doors for me based on the extensive curriculum and challenges I would have faced to attain my degree. The goals that I have set for myself can have the room to grow and prosper with the help of a degree. Without the degree that I am pursuing, I will be unable to reach my fullest potential possible for this time and part of my life. It is difficult to continue academically, professionally, and personally if I feel as though I am stuck in those areas currently having a limited education.

My primary professional and personal goal is to remain organized and not stressed even under pressure or during unforeseen setbacks
I am a born leader. Even when I am not looking for leadership opportunities they always seem to fall into my lap. My life has been one that is based on service to others, so I regularly volunteer for committees and extend myself to help others. It is important to me to be the best teacher I can, I regularly attend professional development sessions and implement my new learning in the classroom. However, upon starting the Teacher Leadership Master’s program at Lamar University, I was just beginning my career as a teacher leader. I had not had many opportunities to show leadership outside of my grade-level team. During team planning meetings, I normally directed the discussions. My coworkers looked to me for guidance and interpretation of the curriculum. I regularly made suggestions about teaching strategies. Additionally, I was a member of various campus committees including the Campus Performance Objective Committee (CPOC) where worked together with campus administrators and community partners to develop the Campus Improvement Plan. However, I did not view these tasks as leadership opportunities.
My academic goal is to graduate Argosy University with a bachelors degree in Forensic Psychology in three years time. Forensic Psychology is the study of the criminal mind, in a nutshell. The main motivation to achieve this goal would be intrinsic. I love asking questions and knowing the answers as to why people do what they do, and in a criminals case, what led them to committing the crime. This goal, however, may have some extrinsic motivation as well. Being knowledgeable about certain behaviors that criminals poses may help solve or even prevent a crime. In addition, having a degree will help open different paths in life, ones that may present me with greater job opportunities. My attitude toward the learning process will help my achievement of each goal because I am eager, determined and motivated. My greatest desire is to succeed in life, and obtaining an education is one thing I know will help me. I perhaps will need to make some adjustments along my journey. I do not know yet if I will find another educational path that intrigues me the most. For now, I do not feel that any adjustments need to be made.
Participation in this program will support me and my goals to be the first person in my family to receive higher than a bachelor’s degree. I plan to receive my Ph.D. in abnormal child psychology, and I am currently in early education and care at my high school as my career path. I truly believe that I connect on a personal level with children and my interest in mental illnesses and why they occur fits into that career description perfectly. I would like to leave Delaware and experience the world, starting with where I attend college. Louisiana State University, Spellman University, or Texas A&M are my top 3 colleges that I would love to attend and pursue my career goals. I aspire to be very successful in everything that I have planned to do
Choosing a career in medicine is my first career choice, and in many ways it is the only career choice I want. From professional athletes that we see on television, to the educators that have taught me and many others through the years, they all have committed themselves to extensive study. They have practiced countless of hours to master their individual skill set for their profession. I see myself following in the same footsteps, but as a pediatrician. I want to also master the skills that it takes to be a great doctor. It may not be simple and the outcome may not be near, but with extensive studying and practice I want to achieve and master the set of skills of pediatric diagnosis and eventually improve the medical process. This is my
Going to college has been a dream of mine growing up. I am the first ever in my family to go to college but figuring out how to pay for it has been a challenge. I desire to achieve my academic and career goals and this scholarship can help me succeed in my journey.
