Statement Of Purpose To Join A Sorority

Being chosen to join the National Honor Society has made me realize that people notice what I do. It makes me want to put myself out there in a positive way, and lead in a way others will follow. I have trouble using my voice to lead instead, I shy down. I think National Honor Society will help me use my voice to become the leader I strive to be.

I voiced the opinions of many students in my class and took charge of some of our events like semi formal projects. I enjoyed it so much so, I ran to become the treasurer of my junior class. Though I had not won, I still take part in student council. I also joined Jewish Student Union as recommended by my friend and felt it to be an amzing way to get involved with my religion and learn more, later taking on an officer position. To challenge myself I applied for Hispanic Honor Society in which students had to write an essay and remember an induction speech. It all worked out, as I had made it in and tutor students. Also I particpated in my first high school sport, Girls Bowling. After my first practice I improve exponential to the point in which I was part of the varsity team, cheering on the

I, Troy Weber, want to join National Honor Society to benefit my community and myself. This experience will help me with completing difficult tasks, handling a situation or just finding a way to talk to another person. I want to help my community because there is so much work that can be done. People need help everyday and I want to give up my time to lend them a hand or two. Volunteer work can lead to a better character and create a sense of care for the people within a small and large community.

The National Honor Society is an excellent program, so I believe that becoming a member could create a symbiotic relationship. Being a member of the National Honor Society could encourage my academic achievement and give me opportunities to teach, which in turn will fine tune my understanding on the subject as well. I have multiple experiences with tutoring, as I am currently tutoring three kids and used to tutor an international student in English. I believe firmly in helping others through tutoring; I love teaching to instill curiosity and ambition in the minds of others. Community service and tutoring are a win-win outcome in my opinion since the student starts to comprehend the subject that they are struggling in while the tutor builds mastery of the subject, feels a sense of accomplishment, and genuinely feels better for doing the right thing.

I would like to become a member of National Honor Society because it is a great opportunity for me to give back to my community. In my future my plans are to become an Orthopedic Nurse, and being in the medical field has so much to do with giving back to the community. I have been a part of the Health Occupation Education Program at my school for the past two years. In H.O.E. we have done several things to help give back to the community such as walking 1,000 miles as a class for the Adams County Cancer Collation walk and also delivering Turkey Boxes for families who can’t afford to have a good Thanksgiving dinner. Wanting to make a difference is a huge part of being a healthcare worker. Being a member of National Honor Society would mean a

“You quickly become what you surround yourself with.” This concept was a constant reminder my mother gave me when I moved off to college. As a senior, I find this advice to hold very true when I reflect on the organizations that I have been a part of. My sorority, Zeta Tau Alpha, has had the biggest influence on not only my character, but my language as well. What first seemed like jargon has now become primary language. From learning new meanings for everyday vocabulary to different intonational patterns, my language has adapted to the environment that I have surrounded myself with for the past three years.

Last year I started college with the mindset that I was ready to jump in feet first and running. I have great supportive parents and teachers from high school willing to support and encourage me through anything I face, yet I didn't use those resources. My first semester felt pretty good, I joined a sorority, went to class everyday and worked part time. I enjoyed my professors and thought I had everything under control. Somewhere along the road I realized that communication with teachers in college was different than high school, but it wasn't different in the ways I thought I was. I was terrified of sounding stupid and lost, I felt the need to sound prepared and forgot how to ask for help. I came from a small school full of teachers who acted as family, always there for you and eager to offer assistance. My first

I am writing in hopes of being granted an appeal to live off campus for the Fall semester of my Junior year. Though the privilege of living off campus is typically reserved for students who are rising Seniors, under these certain circumstances I would like to ask to be given an exception to this rule.

Hopefully, I will be able to continue my education in 2016 spring semester at Queens College. It will be a fantastic experience for me to meet outstanding professors and make new friends who share same interests. I will be a more mature musician and a person as I spend more time at the college. Queens College will definitely help me to build a firm foundation for the future and get closer to my goal and this is why I desperately want to be a part of the

Although it sounds like a cliché, ever since I was a child, I have been told I’m a born leader. However, natural ability is not enough. I want to expand my skills. I do not just want to be a good leader, but a great one. Attending the USCGA would be an unparalleled opportunity to accomplish this goal. The USCGA is my first choice for college. It is the only service academy I am applying to.

If I were to give an incoming freshman a piece of advice when coming into Durant High School, I would tell them to join every activity possible. Become a part of every career tech organization, participate in all of the community service you can, and enroll in any honors/AP class that is given. Of course it sounds like an overload, but it is well worth it in the long run. During high school, I was in three career technology organizations, completed over 153 hours of community service with my student council, and took 5 honors/AP classes. Being a part of literally every activity is how I found my niche. All of these doings require an immense amount and time and effort. However, when you get to senior year and realize all you have accomplished

I am currently a student at Sam Houston High School. I am Number 10 of my graduating class. It is very challenging to maintain having good grades but it is very rewarding. Sometimes you just have to sacrifice something’s in order to have good grades. You also have to be very determined and focus at all times not allowing the things or people surrounding you to distract you from your goal. But it is very helpful when you have friends and family who are always there to support you to follow your dreams. My family is my motivation, they’ve always told me to take school very serious because it can lead me to success.

I am interested in joining the Honors College for several reasons. Firstly I will have the opportunity to study in multiple fields at the same time. Secondly, I will get the chance to discuss new ideas and other topics of scientific importance, with highly intellectual Professors and students, which will assist me in innovating something of worth and value. Moreover, as Davidson School of Chemical Engineering at Purdue University provides a great exposure through class projects, community building activities, the variety of internship opportunities as well as an amazing research environment, I find it perfect to gain excellence.

For my first extra curricular, I selected my role on Student Council. In Grade 9 I aspired to make a difference within my school community. I was one of two students elected to be Grade 9 Representative with a grade population of roughly 400 students. I took that year to learn the inner works of Student Council and that’s where my role within the school began. I took the time to get to know students on a personal level. I learned how to strive as a leader, by way of the executive members as well as those who were in the position before me. After continuing my involvement in Council the following year, I was again one of two students elected to be Grade 10 Representative. That year, I was given more responsibility to grow as a leader which increased my

Universal College is my college of choice because I love the close-knit community that the campus has to offer; I hope to complete a degree in Nursing; I will further my academic experience through participating in Greek Life, various community service organizations, and campus worship opportunities; I will contribute to Universal College by organizing and helping community service projects for fellow college students. For example, I will obtain a degree in Nursing. Helping other people has been a prominent part of my life, and with completion of the nursing program, I can continue to help people through medicine. This is important because not only will it fulfill my life wishes, but it will also help others. In addition, to further my academic
