Momentum is an interesting concept, it can be with you, but fading at the same time. Sustained momentum requires the constant input of new ideas, followed by execution. What separates the University of Pennsylvania is its ability to execute. To me, Penn represents action, it represents the ability to leave the classroom and have an education rooted in the real world. When I look at Penn, I see a global university that provides students with opportunities to apply their education, whether through research, traveling abroad or simply interacting with a community of exceptional individuals. I recognize a school that will allow my unique background to flourish by presenting me with an ‘A’ plus liberal arts education, promoting the acquisition of knowledge from a broad base of sources. …show more content…
During sophomore year, a group of friends and I started our own company, Erro Industries LLC, with the intention of becoming an innovative, wholesale supplier of specialty branded shoes. Erro Industries taught me more about business than any high school class did through hands-on experience, fueled by the passion I have for entrepreneurial work. I want to bring this experience and passion to Penn to further my education and become a unique part of the Penn community. I want to attend a school that promotes real-world exposure. Through research opportunities like, the Penn Institute for Economic Research and clubs, such as the Penn International Business Volunteers, it becomes clear that Penn is committed to exposing students to education beyond the limits of the school borders to broaden the liberal arts experience and enabling students to get
My Lewis & Clark’s education, will always be represented by opportunity. I have never felt a limit on anything I can do here. There are always places to grow and understand myself and what I want from my education. Lewis & Clark is providing me with the building blocks I need to construct the solid well rounded base of knowledge I need before I can pursue a more concentrated path. I have had the great opportunity to take a diversity of classes in the arts, science, humanities, along with a few others. Coming into the school, I had no plan for what I wanted to focus my studies on, but by taking such a medley of classes, I was finally able come across a topic that
In general, the previous schools that I had attended were rather conservative in the sense that there is a lesser degree in the freedom to flourish in distinct fields of study. Therefore, I crave in expanding my abilities in different fields and in different places. I decided to turn to American education to challenge this stereotype. Attending Lewis & Clark College would allow the broadening of my perception in both academia and profession-wise. I see Lewis & Clark as the fertile grassland that can assist my pursuit for knowledge as it provides a large diversity of programs and working relationships with multiple companies. Ultimately, Lewis & Clark College serves as a springboard for me to achieve a higher ground throughout my career path. The opportunities provided in Lewis & Clark College could potentially elicit the inner potentials of myself to develop in the society and better represent myself as a successful candid from the
Throughout my life as a child and teenager, I was told by my parents that they worked really hard to get to the safe town and community that we lived in. Growing up in Pacific Grove, California gave me lots opportunities that I didn’t even know I obtained. Unless it had happened to me personally, I didn’t really understand the full picture of what others had to go through. Having dyslexia, the only subject I felt I really excelled in was art. After high school, I still had no idea what I wanted to do for a career or even a major. Monterey Peninsula College has boosted my confidence by showing me that I can be and do much more. Two years ago I would never have guessed that I would be applying to the University of Washington.
I believe a liberal arts education would enable me to be well rounded and acquainted with life around me. There is beauty in the way languages, sciences, and arts all come together to give us a taste of this world. I specifically desire to go to Hillsdale because I believe the classes will challenge me and push me beyond what I perceived possible. I desire the best education I can receive and believe Hillsdale is the place that offers it. I want to learn how to defend liberty and pursue truth not just while I am in school, but also after I graduate. I am confident Hillsdale will equip me to stand up for what I believe, interpret and discern truth, and give be a excellent understanding of the world in which I live.

In tenth grade, I moved four hours away from my friends and family to attend a public, residential high school for the arts: the South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities (SCGSAH). The school, open to South Carolina students upon audition, offers intense arts study with strong academic classes. Each teacher is passionate about the subjects and students they teach, and every student is devoted to their studies because they truly want to be at school. Despite the intense demands from my academic and arts teachers, I was excited by the level of commitment from both students and faculty and the liberal arts approach to education. When searching for colleges, I chose schools that would continue this liberal arts focus while still
It has become much more common in the United States to turn on the news and learn about yet another shooting. Typically, the violence involves the criminal acquiring a firearm that they should not have been permitted to have, and attacking someone defenseless- either because they could not access their weapon in time, or for another reason. The increased frequencies of such tragic events have made many Americans wonder how much tighter gun restrictions to be to prevent them from continuing. They also wonder how tight gun restrictions can be before they become unconstitutional, or even if the 2nd Amendment should continue to exist. The Amendment states that “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, and the right of people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

I’m writing to you today to express my concerns regarding immigration reform. Recently, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has made insulting remarks regarding Mexican immigrants stating “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” When he speaks about Mexicans he is referring to the worst stereotypes of Mexicans. Although he is correct in saying that there are good people, according to a Washington post article, “a range of studies show there is no evidence immigrants
NYU is a large campus contained both within itself and within NYC; I feel extremely grateful to possibly have the best of both environments. Most importantly, I feel comfortable in NYU’s environment and believe it will be a great place to challenge myself and to explore the diversity the school has to offer. The ability to attend a school that emphasizes the importance of academics, diversity, and inclusiveness is crucial to me. NYU provides the opportunity for me to focus on the impact I can make by indulging myself in a sea of different ideas and perspectives, which will give me a well-rounded education. In addition, Gallatin School of Individualized Study allows me to freely immerse myself in any topic that interests me. With such a liberty
I aspire to attend the Clark Atlanta University because it is a symbol for past and future generations of educational and operational excellence. Clark Atlanta University is the hub of African American leadership and educational expansion, and with the constant policing of the community and poaching of black culture in today’s society, it is significant that I achieve an education that represents myself and the world with which I am familiar and intend to change for the better.
However, I am grateful that I have been able to identify the weak points in my learning efforts so early in my academic career and also been able to implement changes to them. The way in which I study is drastically changing and I have already seen positive improvements because of that. I have reprioritized many times, focusing primarily on my studies, and finally arrived at a balance that works best with my schedule. I have learned to not be reserved and to expose myself to all that is available at this university because some of my best experiences have come from unexpected moments. Overall, I have assured myself that choosing a liberal arts education was the best decision I made because it offers me an infinite amount of opportunities, both intellectually and personally. My goals have been reevaluated after my learning thus far and I am enthusiastic to continue to pursue them throughout the remainder of my time here. Academically, I plan to graduate with a competitive skillset that will set me apart from others in the workforce and also graduate studies. The education I am receiving here is phenomenal and I wish to translate that into my future career. To do so, I strive to be involved inside and outside of the classroom to further my knowledge in all subjects. Through involvement in various organizations, I aim to become more diverse in my abilities. Along with that, I have ambition
My want to pursue fine arts as my area of study stemmed from my want to obtain my Bachelors in Fine Arts and help procure a future career in the art museum industry. I want to go beyond what I know to develop an array of skills that will make me an asset in the art world, developing practical and theoretical skills to learn art and design history. Being passionate, innovative, and creative in every aspect of my life I believe acted as my backbone that supported me in venturing into new things. The passionate, innovative, and creative attend The New School which is why I believe my presence as a student would be a perfect fit. Students attend higher education to become enlightened about the majors that will essentially help them become successful in their life. I believe that The New School would be an essential component educating me about fine art as well as expanding my knowledge on topics such as painting, drawing,and
The University of Pennsylvania has one resource that no other establishment in the world can offer to me: the highest caliber of intellectuals in my field. Given that I intend on attending the Wharton School of Business and with the goal of becoming a financial manager, and then rising further along corporate ladder, I must be at the absolute forefront of the field and gain as many connections as I can along the way. Not to be used, people are not tools. But, I am NOT one who is content to let themself fall into the pit of mediocrity And I recognize that the success of one individual can inspire success in those around them. Thus, is researched the different groups that students have put together for the mutual benefit of both University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton School of Business and the multitude of opportunities they present myself: investment experience, interdisciplinary education, and furthering my understanding of the Chinese economy.
