The early college program is a unique opportunity that allows “ students to extend high school by one year in order to earn both their diploma and up to 62 college credits from Muskegon Community College (MCC) at no cost to the student.” To me, the opportunity provided by mcc would help me achieve my goal of obtaining a phD in astrophysics. To be able to have earned an associate's degree will put me ahead of other students in both time, money, and college experience. Both in school and in my personal time i am a creative individual. I enjoy expressing myself through various artistic forms such as writing, drawing and cosplay.…

According to Dubrin, a need is a deficit within an individual, such as a craving for water and/or affection (2012). When we have a need and want to accomplish it, we will make more of an effort to achieve that goal because it will satisfy our need, so from that we have more motivation on completing something. If we don’t need something we wont be motivated to go and accomplish that something. The needs we have in life are what drive us to motivation. The need for students to get a good job is what keeps them motivated to graduate college.…

Being in my last year of high school I have begun to think about what goals I want to accomplish during college or after college. I have come to a conclusion that after college I would like to obtain my doctorate degree in Veterinary Medicine and start a family. After college I would love to get my doctorate because I enjoy helping animals and their owners. Growing up I have always had a soft spot for animals in my heart, but by majoring in wildlife sciences, it will allow me to come out of my shell and take a different path from just dogs and cats. Also by majoring in this department, I hope to encounter different cultural backgrounds so that I can grow culturally and learn about others while helping them with whatever struggles they…
As a current senior in high school, the time of graduation can be stressful and I am finally figuring out what I want to do with my life. The only reason I was able to do this was because of the great education I have gotten at CAL. I have learned more than just what textbooks and charts can show. I learned about life lessons and without them I do not know if I would be able to say I am academically and emotionally ready for college. I am planning on attending Kirkwood College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.…

I decided to become an Early college high school student, because I knew it would help a low-income, first-generation college student, English language learner, and Hispanic like me achieve a higher education. One of the most valuable advantages of being and Early college high school student in my opinion would be the motivation and grand expectations you feel about wanting to achieve more. However, taking both college and high school courses requires a lot of dedication. You must learn to mature and challenge yourself always as a student.…
I think that the early college program is so interesting and there are many students at my high school participating as well. Though I am not enrolled in the program, I am able to take advantage of the courses offered and love having the opportunity to take dual enrollment classes through the college, such as this one, while still being around other kids my age. The quote you pulled from the introduction section was extremely fascinating. My whole family loves to read and fiction is definitely our favorite genre, so I found it appalling that over half of the country does not participate in reading "imaginative literature." Does that mean that the other fifty percent of Americans read non-fiction?…
Thomas Frank once said, “Massive inequality we have learned, isn’t the best way to run an economy after all. And when you think about it, it is profoundly ugly.” In our society today, there is no equality for all citizens to get an higher education. Getting a college education is important to many people so they can succeed in their future career. Depending on whether families can afford college or potential students can get good high school grades, determine whether or not they get accepted into college.…
