Why I Chose College

Choosing to attend college was a difficult choice, my mother is the only person in all of my family to ever attend and graduate college. My father and the rest of my family have all gone into trade work, some of them attending a trade school and some not. While all of my family does well and live a comfortable lifestyle. I have noticed through the years that my mother has always been employed even when others in my family have not and she always seems to have an easier time finding work. This is the main reasons I decided to attend college, with higher education often times comes more job security and stability. I decided to attend CU boulder specifically due to the fact that it is very close to home, as well as the fact that it is a very

There was many reasons why I decide to attend college. I am extremely tired of applying for distinctive positions and being rejected for not having a degree. I'm a supervisor now over thirty employees when I see different positions opening in management or higher position. I apply on behalf of the job, gain being interviewed for my experience. Nevertheless, not having a college degree really afflicts me. As a result, I decided to attend college and further my education.

This would be a difficult decision for me to make. Would I admit or would I deny? I already lied to get a perfect score on the SATs, so I thought I could get a perfect life. I think I would choose to confess for stealing the money. The reason behind of why I would confess is because if you don’t graduate from high school, you won’t be able to get a job to be able to earn money. My life would be over if I didn’t graduate or be able to go to college. Three similarities I see with this is the Crucible if you were accused of witchcraft you would have to admit to it in order to get away from death, admitting to taking the money will allow you graduate and not lose the chance for college. Another similarity is this situation is based on accusations.

Furthering my education is everything. College is scary for some and for others it’s the best time of their lives. I know that college will be a great experience in my life and the money spent there will pay off in the long run. There’s only one reason to go to college and that is for an education. The field of study I am looking to become educated in is involved in engineering. There are four major branches of engineering: civil, mechanical, chemical, and electrical. I, with the help of my mother, have decided that the branch that fits me the best is chemical engineering. The career path in chemical engineering that I am looking into is biomedical engineering (according to Wichita State University), or otherwise known as biological systems engineering (according to University Nebraska-Lincoln). This type of engineering deals with the designing of medical instruments, such as prosthetics, which I think

I have many reasons for going to college, I’m going to college because I want to make my family proud and I want to be a leader for my younger siblings and cousins. Another reason is I want to be successful in life and go places, I also want to come back and help my people and culture. I’m taking on college because I want to travel the world and go places, maybe there could be people around the world who need help, the forest or environment and there could be a possibility I could help them. I’m the first person in my family to go to college and I plan on graduating and going to other colleges or Universities. My parents got as far as high school then got pregnant with me, my grandma dropped out in high school also, my grandpa and uncle were the only ones that completed high school. Sometimes I feel like I have a lot of pressure on me sometimes because I have a lot of people and family members watching me and looking up to me. Everyone tells kids “look at MacKayla if she can do it, you can” so I’m

I am determined and ambitious, but if you are expecting a more formal introduction, I am Winter-Noelle Grant. I hail from a small, yet developing city in north Louisiana called Shreveport. I am a rising sophomore and biology major at Fisk University. Though I am indecisive about my future professional goals within my major, one goal that has remained consistent for the past fifteen years is my desire of becoming a professional dancer; preferably a National Football League cheerleader. When I graduate from Fisk, I have high hopes of being accepted into a graduate program, dental school, or medical school and starting a non-profit organization specifically for minority, high school females. In the future, I plan on either specializing in pediatric dentistry or becoming a pediatrician. I have an immeasurable passion for children and the wellness of others, so being able to heal others is rewarding.

For me, turning 16 meant that I needed to discover what I wanted to study in college. Since I would be graduating early, I knew that I only had the next year to figure what I actually wanted to do with my life. At first, that didn’t seem like a problem, but I soon found out that finding a career choice that was not only interesting to me but could help my life remain fairly stable wasn’t going to be easy.

As a student, I will always try to do and be the best that I can. I come from a family where I will be a first generation going to college, and by doing this, I will make my parents very proud of me. Consequently, for me taking this opportunity to apply and perhaps get accepted to go to a college like Harvard, this will blow my parents’ minds for someone like me who didn’t come from an educated family to be able to be successful. Most students already have a head start by either going to tutoring classes and/or come from parents who are very intelligent and know English; however, I won’t see that as a disadvantage because I will take all the opportunities given to me like going to my teachers’ office hours. Education is the number one priority

My life is full of disappointment. I go day to day wondering whether I would be able to make a better life for my children. I work 10 to 12 hour days to save up to go to college. So why did I choose to go to college. I chose to go to college because I want to better myself, find out who I am and make more money.

After I finish high school, I am going to go to college and study psychology there and also play soccer. I am going to get my bachelor's degree in psychology and while I do that I am also going to play soccer for the university that I will be attending. An SAISD employee that has helped me out in my years in school was Mr. James. Mr. James helped me out because he would help me out with the work I needed help with in his class, he would also motivate me to not give up on school and become a drop-out and he would tutor me on how to become a better student. Whenever I would get in trouble he would counsel me on not to mess up my future by doing stupid stuff and change my ways so that my future would not be ruined . He would also help me out by

What most distinguishes me as a candidate is my passion to learn. I want to go to college so that I can learn more about the world and the things in it that are interesting. Specifically, I want to go to the Calhoun Honors College because of its focus on learning. There are smaller class sizes, interesting seminars, opportunities for studying abroad, and more intensive curriculums. I want to dig deeper into subjects that I know I like, and learn about others that I might come to like. At the moment, I don’t have a specific major in mind, but I’m hoping to look into majors in the Liberal Arts field. A community like the Honors College is a great place to meet people from all kinds of different majors, which will help me explore other options

Ever since my freshman year of high school, people have been asking me what I want to do with my life after graduation. I was fourteen years old when I was first asked that question. At the time I did not have a clue about what I wanted to become or where I wanted to go to college. In all honesty, for a while I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to go to college! But then God caused me to hit a wall, and made realize that I needed to get a degree for what I ended up wanting to do. It wasn’t until my junior year that I began thinking about my future seriously, and started to feel a calling. That was when I discovered my love for chemistry, and decided to pursue a job in that area. Now I can say that I actually have a plan, but I also recognize

There are several attributes that I look for in a school, kind of like at for shoes or clothes, but in several ways more important. I looked for somewhere where I was comfortable that moment when I walked in I could see myself spending the next four years of my life in that college. When I stepped into Fresno Pacific I felt that feeling I knew this was the school where I wanted to get an education. The idea of attending Fresno Pacific, came before I even stepped on the college; I attended a meeting where one of the Admission Counselors described the culture, the atmosphere and all the activities that go on campus. This gave me an incentive to visit the campus and learn more about it. The moment I stepped in I felt in peace, it was perfect.

The reason why I’m attending college is to challenge myself. To see what my life has for me in the future. Another reason why I am is to show my family that I can become a better person for myself. Also to pick a profession where I can help people out, and to have a better understanding of others illnesses.

The University of Michigan had always been a part of my life, but going into junior year I was beginning to overlook it. Michigan had always just been a “family school,” and like most teenagers I wanted to find my own way in the world. I knew I wanted to go somewhere with a good business school and a classic college environment, but aside from that I had no idea where I wanted to go to school. Thanksgiving rolled around and I still had no direction in my college search, but I was in the Michigan area visiting family and decided that I would tour Michigan Ross to get a feel for college-level business programs. What I saw instead was the most exceptional program of the many I have toured since and the best opportunity to prepare myself for a career in a constantly changing workplace.
