Hofstra Benefits

Decent Essays
Hofstra would be a great place for me to continue my education. I would like to major in economics. I was researching the major on the website and I noticed that there is a B.A. /M.B.A. program available. So, I was interested in it. The time that I do not spend getting a Master’s degree would be useful in pursuing a career. Another thing that makes Hofstra beneficial is the distance it is from my home. It is only a 45 minute ride back home. Thus, if I am missing anything, home is close-by and I can easily stop by. I had the chance to visit campus and I liked it. The arches over the roadway looked amazing. As my father and I were approaching, I thought that the arches were a great addition to mitigate the problem of how to connect the two parts

    Dear, Point Pleasant Beach High School I would like to thank Beach's program for touring me around the school during the open house and Dr. Grosshandler for taking the time out of his day to discuss my possible future with Point Pleasant Beach and its amazing academic program. Beach has gained a reputation of producing intelligent students and sending them off to college. Being considered for a program with such a productive system brings a monumental amount of joy to me and my family. Over the course of this school year, I have begun to realize the difference between my old school, Point Pleasant Boro, and my new school, Spring Lake Heights. Heights has a smaller population which benefits the students for multiple reasons.…

    The main reason I attended St. Thomas University my freshman year was due to the fact that it was a free education. I can't afford college unless I earn scholarships to pay my way through school. My family doesn't have the money to send me off to out of state or private schools so I worked hard to earn the money on my own. The scholarship I earned at St. Thomas University was both academic and athletic.…

    Studying in Perugia will stimulate my college experience in many ways that residing at Hollins cannot. While abroad, I will learn a new language and practice it with native Italian speakers. This will promote both my linguistic and cultural skills. While I could learn a language in a classroom setting, being able to speak fluently in a public setting will solidify the language and allow me to communicate effectively; I can’t just translate small passages on paper. This experience will also expose me to varying people and countries, teaching me about diverse cultures, and, in turn, my own culture.…
