A Career As A Profession (NYU)

Improved Essays
My biggest weakness is perhaps my inability to follow one path. My indecisiveness always casted a sense of doubt on my future. However, that is why NYU is such a viable environment for me to be in. When I think NYU, I think options and the endless amount of paths I can endeavor to achieve my goals. NYU consists of only pioneers. From Kim Wyant’s status as the first female to coach a men’s’ NCAA team to the overwhelming amount of innovative Stern alumnus, NYU always seems to produce many greats. Likewise, I want to pioneer my way through NYU in order for me to become a creative director – inspiring societal norms and producing innovative concepts.
NYU Stern has always appealed to me. Sure, it is a prestigious school, but the options I get allows

    A weakness that I have is that I do not know how to say no to individuals that ask me for help since I love to help people. It is important that I learn to say no when helping others gets in the way of me accomplishing my tasks. It is important that I do both, but not when I run the risk of not meeting my deadlines and me staying late hours after work to get my work done. It has not been an easy task saying no, but I am learning to be okay with saying no because it is important that it does not interfere with my responsibilities.…

    One phrase that all people can relate to is “There is no place like home”. Therefore, going to an extraordinary college that is near home is a privilege that only a tiny percentage that students get. Consequently, being a family oriented person, I have always preferred to live at home and commute back and forth to the University. Therefore, I believe that the Hofstra University is the ideal school for me, since it's an extraordinary university that excels at academia and its location is quintessential, since it is only seven miles from my home time of New York City. In addition, the fact that Hofstra University is located near New York City, increases the opportunities to receive an internship.…

    I first became interested in applying to NYU after watching the films that Charlie Kaufman had written as well as directed. I looked Kaufman up, in order to learn more about his career as well as his background. When I found out that he had attended NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, I researched Tisch and discovered all of the other incredible men and women that have walked through its doors, and moulded film into what it is today. I wanted to learn from the minds that taught Martin Scorsese, or Phillip Seymour Hoffman. I longed to be in an environment so stimulating, that inspiration blooms in every corner, rooftop, and person all around me.…
