Why I Want To Go To College

The answer to this question is challenging to me because having two diplomas in higher education quite challenging to answer “Why do you want to go to college?” Trying to apply this question to the UoPeople and paraphrasing it as “Why do you want to go to the UoPeople,” I meet another issue. I have already responded to this question in the Discussion Forum.

Media surrounds us, from the graphic design on our morning cellophane coffee cups, to the carefully designed spreads in the magazines we religiously read. The world of Media and Film is beautifully complex, and something which I strongly want to be involved with. I have always immersed myself in the world of Media, and have only ever felt truly satisfied when I’ve been involved in broadening my knowledge and understanding of the industry.

I would like to attend college because I thoroughly enjoy learning. I take great pride in my education; as a women in the twenty-first century, I am going to take advantage of the opportunities I have and educate myself as much as possible. Obtaining a college degree is also essential to thrive in the industry I would like to be involved in after college, the fashion business industry. I selected my major, business administration because I have curated and ran an online store since I was thirteen. I enjoyed the experience so much that I made the decision to pursue it as a career and not just a hobby.

Making the decision to not attend the University of Massachusetts Amherst during the Fall of 2015 was one of the most difficult decisions I have had to make. When I came to the realization that I wanted to be a nurse I was too far along in the college process that It was too late for me to re-apply. I could not transfer into the program, as the Umass Nursing program only accepts Freshman Applicants. I had to bite the bullet, I was to attend college in the fall with my close friends and compatriots and study something I had no drive or passion for, or I was to withdraw my application and remove myself from the safety and certainty of a good education and future. This decision would mark the passage into adulthood, something I would not yet know until I had made the tough choice.

As a first generation student, academic promise hasn’t always been a focus of mine until my high school years. Coming from a family where the only post-high school education is whatever training you receive at work, it is hard to relate when the possibility of university is so far away. Four years after high school, I have not only worked full time but also received my associates degree from my hometown community college. That is all great thanks to the family that have raised me, and taught me that hard work is the only work capable of doing. My parents never had the opportunity to attend college, so they taught me what they knew in life instead; where manners are always required, hard work is mandatory, and when finished with that work; you

The Rural Alaska Honors Institute (RAHI) is a very helpful program for me to become involved in, especially since I plan on going to college after high school to better my education and to shape my future. Since RAHI is at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF), and I am attending UAF in the fall this year, majoring in Geoscience, it will help me get the feel of college and give me the experience I need. This program is something that interests me a lot and I will get to meet new people who I might be going to college with.

I was raised by my father until I was 13 years old, he was a school bus driver and always struggled to provide for us. At 13 I went into fostercare where I fell pregnant and droped out of highschool at the age of 16. I raised my daugher on my own, I decided to go back to school to work twards my grade 12 so I could apply for college. After reciving the needed credits to apply for college. Being the first person in my family to attend college, I had to figure everything out on mu own and Being a single parent and no finacial or moral support from any family, I struggled to even come up with the $90 to apply for the "Ontario Colleges". I did my reaserch and found that due to bein a crown ward I was eligible for certian things that helped me finally

While I have been raised in an environment where all the resources I needed to attend college were available to me, I believe my greatest accomplishment is being accepted into a California University and doing well. After graduating high school, my parents informed me that they would not be able to afford a four year university, and that I would have to attend Junior College first. I was completely devastated. All of my peers were attending four year colleges right out of high school, and I was left behind. I developed an extreme depression that I didn't think I would be able to escape from. I realized though, that if I worked hard enough and did well, I would be attending a University in no time. I pushed through my depression, worked hard

My first choice college was the University of Connecticut. But, I was not admitted to the main campus. I then made the choice to attend [current college] over UConn’s Stamford campus.

My high school experience hasn't been a success for me to get to college (Binus Univ) by taking all of the class I needed to get this far. Actually, i'm not graduate in 2016 but a year ago, I have came a long way during my high school because I really thought I wouldn’t have made it this far due to struggling to keep my grades up but as I started it’s really hard at all to keep them up.

I would construe the colleges as the practice of learning process about how to be part of the society. It is a challenging, but the college could absolutely be built upon on how you do, and how you like it. However, this does not mean the college is necessary to step into the association. For example, if you are desired to be a doctor, engineer, or CEO of the certain association, it will be certainly ambitious challenge for those of who do not have any college degree. However, in case that some people who thinks their dream career does not require any college degree, then you might want to start considering spending your deposits on college.

I have always encouraged people to dream, but to remember that when you are dreaming, your eyes are closed so you must open your eyes and begin to live your dreams. You cannot live your life of passion while you are asleep.

My english class is writing a five paragraph essay on is you should go to college or workforce after high school. I strongly agree with both of them, they both have benefits and they can be good or bad for many different reasons. If i have to choose one i'd probably have to choose college. College will help me in the future, and it will prove that even if you grow up with a hard life you don't need to live that way for ever.

After graduating high school from Northside College Prep in 2015, ranked the number one school in the state, I had high hopes of entering straight into a 4-year university and getting the typical college experience. Even though many of my classmates were still unsure of their desired program, I always knew. All throughout high school even, I knew I wanted to pursue criminal justice. What started as an obsession with over-exaggerated TV crime dramas turned into a passion for true crime documentaries and books. Once college admissions were revealed, I was eager to begin my new journey. Although I was lucky enough to be awarded some merit-based scholarships and offered loans, the aid was ultimately not enough for me to attend UIC like I was hoping, and it seemed my dream was just a little farther from my grasp. As much as I wanted to go to college and get a higher education, I knew I realistically could not afford a 4-year university at the time. I decided on registering at my nearby city college, Truman, in hopes of receiving my associates degree first and one day being able to transfer into UIC as I had been hoping. Lucky enough for me, I had someone at home who had gone through a

Following secondary school, I will attend the University of Notre Dame and major in biological sciences. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to study at this prominent institution, and I’ll make the most of it. College life will be tough, but I’m certainly up for the challenge. There’s myriad people rooting for me and I refuse to let them down.
