    When I visited George Washington my sophomore year of high school, I instantly knew that your school is where I wanted to go for college. It just wasn't like any of the other colleges that I had seen before, and for that matter it was unlike any I have seen since. I saw that GW is in a beautiful location and that its presence in the capitol greatly enhances both its value and the city’s around it. I really liked walking around the campus, as it was extremely vibrant. I saw that safety is also important, and the combination of security that holds jurisdiction in this area is extremely reassuring.…

    I am a first-generation Latina student at The Ohio State University. Being from inner city Toledo, Ohio, I attended a public district where 80% of students received free or reduced lunch and the graduation rate was at an all time low of 49%. My parents had not graduated high school, therefore once college applications became relevant, they unfortunately could not help me. Through 25 different scholarships, I was able to attend OSU without any loans and truly believed I was on the right track to achieving the "American Dream". To my dismay, once classes began, I was lost.…

    If accepted, I hope to benefit from the University of Georgia Honors Program through the advanced courses offered, the caring professors, and the smaller sized classroom.

    Teddy Roosevelt once said that nothing worth having comes easy. With this in mind, I have actively spent my high school years working to ensure that my success and achievements are fruits of hard work and perseverance, rather than sheer luck. These past four years, I have dedicated my young mind to absorbing the valuable knowledge that pools before me in my rigorous AP courses. In addition, I also invested a good portion of my time into my school’s band program. Although balancing academics and such a demanding extracurricular activity was difficult, I managed to find the time to also participate in very rewarding organizations such as National Honor Society, among others.…

    I never stop desiring more out of life; I never want to stop learning. Per Sir Francis Bacon, knowledge is power, and I utterly agree with this statement. Although I am pleased with my experience at Georgia State University thus far, I still feel like some aspect of the college experience is missing, and that is the Honors College at Georgia State University. In midst of communicating with people who are serious about their future endeavors, the Honors College will provide me with an opportunity to pursue a demanding education. I have learned to step away from negative people…being a member of the Honors College will only surround me with people whom I share common characteristics with.…

    On a sweltering summer day in the City of Atlanta or the “ATL” as it is affectionately known today, I visited my best friend while he visited his father for the summer. That day I remember vividly because as soon as we stepped outside of the airport to take the “MARTA” train, I began to sweat profusely. Anyone that has been to Atlanta during the summer knows it is incredibly humid there. A week earlier I had seen my friend, and we planned out what we were going to do that week I visited. I knew I wanted to visit Spellman College, Morehouse College, Clark Atlanta University, and Morris Brown College, but before I could visit the Atlanta University Center or the “AUC” as it is called to the locals, I felt compelled to visit the grave site of one of the most influential human being to walk this earth.…

    External Relations are crucial to the growth and improvement of RHA. Not that without connections with outside organizations will end RHA completely, but lack of outside companions and resources will make RHA’s operations much harder.

During my term as Director of External Relations, I’ve seen improvements regarding RHA’s external relations with SSM and other student organizations on campus. However, I believe having a second chance to continue what I’ve been doing will consolidate and further these relations.…
