UNCW Personal Statement

I have fallen in love with UNCW after first-hand seeing it for myself last summer. I know a lot of alumni from UNCW and have heard nothing but positive things about the school, teachers, and its courses. I am interested in majoring marketing or business and UNCW excels in both of these areas for me. In addition, it provides many courses that assist me in meeting my goals for my career. I would love to attend UNCW because it is close to my hometown but also far enough to where I can be an independent. Not only do I believe the University of North Carolina Wilmington is the right fit for me and my future career but also has every aspect that I am looking for in a college. It has the perfect location, the perfect size, very affordable, and the

UNC Charlotte has made a significant impact on my undergraduate career because this campus has an abundance of resources, a helpful staff, a diverse atmosphere, and plenty of opportunities for campus involvement. This university has a variety of staff, all of which have been helpful in my college experience. They are excellent about working with students so they can gain the most out of their educational experience. For example, when I have sought out more information on which portion of Spain to go to, so that I may improve my Spanish fluency, my professor was extremely helpful. She sat down with me and explained about what it is like living in Spain, tips for where to go, and what to expect from the different regions. This valuable information

Attending Kennesaw State University has been a very rewarding journey. As a current senior in college, I have been given the chance to experience the University environment. An environment full of my interaction with my fellow classmates working in study groups and tutoring sessions. Also having the option to sit in on my professor's 2nd lecture that you did not understand fully during your class period.

I would love to be a part of Central Michigan's athletic training program. I have a deep love and passion for sports. After High School I would still want to be in the sports field and I also like caring for people which would make Athletic training the field for me. I am currently a captain on my basketball and track team. I make others around me better and take on the role of being a leader. My goal is to graduate and get my degree. After that I envision myself being a strength and conditioning coach or an athletic trainer. I want to be a good athletic trainer at a college or pro level.

I chose NDSU because I feel like I was pretty well acquainted with the campus during my time in high school. Each summer, for FFA, my chapter, along with others from across the state, spent a week here competing in different agricultural competitions. Also, I talked with alumni from this nursing program, and they all said it was set up very well, and also put them on a track to getting a good job afterwards. When I came for a tour earlier this spring, I got to hear a speech from the Dean of nursing, and I just sort of felt like this was the right place. On a side note, I like being here because of the agricultural side of NDSU as well, even if I’m not necessarily going into a field pertaining to it. It seems more like home to me, when the person next to me, going into Vet Tech, rides horse as much as I did.

The University of North Carolina Wilmington gives a welcoming and home-like feeling to all who attend. Once I step foot on campus, it reminds me of the privilege I have of staying home. It has always been the college I've wanted to attend. The small and diverse community is what keeps me here in Wilmington, North Carolina and UNCW fulfills my dreams of not leaving. I find the mixture of races and gender to be essential in a community or school. It defines a person including their culture and allows everyone to be different from one another. It proves that we can all get along and work together to create greater changes as a whole; UNCW has that variety. However, not only does the diverse environment attract me, but so does the beautiful campus.

I've always wanted to go to college my whole life. I didn't know what I wanted to do later in life, or what I wanted to major in. My dream was always to just go to college. As a sophomore in high school I discovered the basic field I wanted to be in, the veterinary world. My junior year I knew which profession I wanted to be involved with; however, I wasn't quite sure which role. Now as a senior, I know exactly what I want to do with my life. I am hoping that UTK will be the college for me. I have previously visited UTK, and it just felt right. Visiting other colleges, nothing compared to the uniqueness and homelike atmosphere of UTK. Being a Kentucky resident, I am quite familiar with Tennessee, and it is one of my favorite states. I am hoping to fulfill my dreams here at UTK, and continue further down my path to success.

This spring, I will be completing my first year of graduate school in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of New Mexico. I graduated with a B.S. Degree in Environmental Science from UNM last year and was the first in my family to earn a college degree. I transferred to UNM in the fall of 2012 and have had the opportunity to interact with many professors, which I feel helped to influence my decision for graduate school.

Of this list, I chose UNC-W for a number of reasons. The main reason I chose this school was the location. UNC-W is centered in one of the largest cities in North Carolina. Within just a few miles, there is access to the beach and there is access to a flourishing city. Wilmington is also known for its breathtaking landscape. Being only an hour and a half from Goldsboro, I can quickly get home if needed. The University of North Carolina at Wilmington is known for its size, for the price reasonability, and for the Cameron School of Business.

Being able to attend UNCW would allow me the opportunity to volunteer and shadow at multiple State parks in the surrounding area. I feel it would also help me grow as a person through student

Growing up as a non-denominational Christian and still consider myself one. Over the past few years I have no attended church as often as I should. I am hoping to get back into applying my Christianity to everyday life and I’m hoping that CCU will help me with that. My mother attended this school to receive her Bachelors degree and only had great things to say about it. We were speaking a few weeks back how I have been striving to get back to my religion and have not had motivation to do so. She suggested attending CCU so that I can start learning to apply my religion to nursing. So here I am, ready to learn. As a nurse I have an opportunity to have a huge influence on many lives. Not only medically, emotionally, but spiritually. My patients

Im interested in going into UNCW for two reasons. The 1st one being when I was a kid my parents took me to the aquarium in Florida where I was able to interact with ocean life and play with dolphins. Ever since that day I knew that Marine Biology was the major that I have always wanted and my mind has never changed there is just something about the ocean the draws me to it and the beautiful creatures that are in it. The second reason being that out of the many colleges that I have reviews and been to UNCW has the best Marine Biology program I have seen and it is the most involved in the specific major that I want to have and not just a basic biology degree. When I went to the campus on the open house day I fell in love with Wilmington and knew

I have worked all of my life for a moment like this, the moment to where I can start a great future on my own. UNCW can help me acquire this moment because they have an excellent education program and that is exactly what I am wanting to go into.I had the awesome opportunity in junior year to go and tour UNCG, Eastern Carolina, and UNCW. UNCW just seemed like the best option to me because even though I wasn't even a college student yet, every student or guide that I talked to seemed like they really wanted me there and was trying to make a positive impact on my life. Not to mention that UNCW's campus is beautiful and peaceful.I know that my freshman year is going to be difficult because I will be out on my own and having to provide for myself

I had to choose one college that interests me and has the career I would like to study. The college that I chose was UC Davis, I think UC Davis is the perfect college for me because it’s the top university for veterinarians. UC Davis also has different courses and majors that I am really interested in. What was also interesting to me was when I really researched the school facts and got to know college students perspectives that attend UC Davis.
