I would like to attend this program because although I am a native Spanish speaker, I have not been able to practice much due to living in a area where Spanish speaking cultures are scarce. This is a great opportunity for me so I can practice my Spanish and learn about different Spanish speaking cultures.
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
The education experience is different for everyone. I was fortunate enough to be able to attend a university after primary school and acquire a Bachelor's degree in nursing. The college I choose to attend, Misericordia University, was founded by the Sisters of Mercy with four central charisms; mercy, service, justice and hospitality. Upon arriving at Misericordia. I did not realize just how much these charisms would shape my life, but now, as a senior, I realize their significance.
Two years ago, I thought over potential post graduation plans while returning to school from Thanksgiving break, “So I’ll try to intern the summer before Senior year at JP Morgan, and then hopefully land an offer with them for a two year contract and after that go on to…” Suddenly the train stopped, and a soldier entered and sat across from me. A love for people and respect for our military motivated me to greet him, and we engaged in a moving conversation about his military service and my life as a student for the rest of the train ride. When we arrived in Washington, we exchanged goodbyes, and although I felt happy immediately after our conversation, I curiously felt an empty sadness when I returned to campus.
This business plan is to open a door for young adults that want to learn a trade and earn their way in life. Not all high school aged students are eager to go onto a college or a university and this can be for many reasons: perhaps they are not ready to leave home; cannot afford; they are academically challenged; not sure what they want to major in; the list can go on and on. My wish for these young adults is for them to
The first thing I will discuss is cost. Cost is always an important issue that must be addressed for a business. A product that does not have an equal or gain return when compared to its cost would be considered a poor
I have always known that I wanted to attend a top-tier university. The other details came later; the small size, the proximity to an urban hub, and my major itself. For a while, I was convinced that it would not happen; that I just wouldn’t get in. Now, I realize that I have an opportunity to do so. This is an opportunity I do not intend to waste.
Throughout 9th and 10th grade, I have worked very hard academically. Yet, as I am about to venture into 11th grade, I feel as though I am ready for a challenge. Truthfully, the thought of starting college at the age of 16 sounded just like the type of challenge I needed. Furthermore, there are three main reasons why I want to attend the Mary Baldwin Early College: because I am seeking an academic challenge, because I believe that the Mary Baldwin Early College will help me to achieve my career ambitions, and because the Mary Baldwin Early college offers everything I hope to experience at a college.
When I decided to attend a community college and begin a career in business I was in my thirties.
Westmont College is a small, liberal arts college located in the beautiful Santa Barbara, California. The college only offers bachelor’s degrees. Westmont is a standard four year college. They are nondenominational and encourage their students to live out a Christian life. They supply Christian-based studies. An interesting fact is that 78% of financial needs are met! Serious crime (per 1000 students per year) is a shocking 17.06, drug or weapon incidents are 2.22, and alcohol encounters are 14.83. Santa Barbara is considered a fairly safe place so seeing these statistics is quite surprising!
The traditional adult attending a college or university is attempting to get their foot in the door of life. While the non-traditional adult, someone who is already in the workforce, is attending college for a different reason: either to change a career, improve a job skills, or for the joy of learning. The wise employers are sending employees back to school in order to make the business successful. Universities and colleges are adapting their programs to the needs of these non-traditional adults. As the non-traditional adults flood the colleges and universities, corporations and educational institutes are collaborating to establish the most optimum way to support the needs of the students while providing the best trained and educated workers in the industry.
To attend Georgetown University has been my intent for as long as I can remember. More recently, as I've matured, my goal has become more specific‒ to be a student in the McDonough School of Business. I am motivated to study business at Georgetown University for three reasons‒ the core values of McDonough, the graduates that I know, and the professors that I know.
My favorite college and the college I would like to attend is Indiana University. The college was established on January 20, 1820 in Corydon, Indiana (“Indiana University Bloomington.”). It is currently in the city of Bloomington (southern Indiana), which has some of the best scenery in the country. Indiana University is a public college. Some benefits of attending a public college like IU are the price difference, more activities, easier to get in, and they are more culturally diverse ("Advantages of Attending a State University: An Overview."). In this beautiful area, there are International Music Festivals throughout the year. Indiana also has one of the most iconic basketball arenas in the United States, Assembly Hall. IU is known for many
This award would support me a lot because I really care about my success at CSU, but I also really value my education. I feel because of where I come from, which is a small community of Latinos/Hispanic and African American that education is one thing that I want strive for. In my community, not a lot of students pursue education after high school, but I never thought I don’t want to go either. Education was always on my mind, and CSU was my goal because it had my specific major which is Apparel and Merchandising. It was a school that was high on tuition but never wanted to let go of the goal I had. Most of my financial aid is being paid off by loans, and it has been very difficult for me and especially my family. I have struggled a lot with money in the past, and this award could help me in my pursuit of an education.
The CES school I would most like to attend would be BYU-Idaho so that I am able to gain a better education and do great things like my siblings before me. I would also like to attend there because it will allow me opportunities that I wouldn’t be able to find anywhere else. BYU-Idaho also contains the schooling I will need in order to become an elementary teacher without going through a longer process than most colleges. I also agree with all the honor codes and the way the school system is set up so that you are able to do what is needed. I also strongly support the religious side of college and think that is a really great part being able to be with people who mostly have the same standards.
