My Goals For College

Decent Essays
Everyday my classmates and I are working at an extremely high level. We push each other to work harder so that in the future we can achieve our goals. My school is full of intelligent students, so we help each other daily with our work. We do not let others fall and we build each other up instead of tearing others down. My friends and classmates are always encouraging me when I have trouble. We have built our own little community within our school which is a tight knit group.
The other group of people that push me to succeed on the field are my volleyball teammates and coaches. As teammates, we have a special bond and connection with each other since we have been playing together for years now. On the court when we make mistakes we do not dwell on it. We keep our heads up and try to move forward and keep playing as hard as we can. I always play as hard as I can when I am with them because I can feel how much we all want to win. This drives me to continue to dig deep and work together to win. As you can see the friends and classmates that I have in my life are very influential in my life and it is where my hunger to succeed and excel comes from.
This has prepared me for college because I know how to work with others and collaborate on ideas. Communications, the field

    I believe that University of Alabama’s Early College program will help me achieve my college goals because it will give me a taste of what is to come and preparation for the future.

As you may already know, pursuing this career requires almost a decade of education in and out of the classroom. This is an excellent way to take as many college classes in high school as I can so I can enjoy college and have an easier experience once enrolled as a full-time student.

    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…

    Bob Jones University has taught me plenty since I started here in the fall, but what I will never forget the constant feeling of belonging I get when I walk from my dorm to my classes.

The professors don’t only focus on the education we receive, but they want us to become better people who are willing to live for Christ.

    I can recall my recent summer when I challenged myself to do tremendous work. Looking back to my previous summers, the mundane experience encouraged me to take drivers education for my license next year, test out of Algebra 2 and P.E., work on my AP History and Advanced English homework, practiced my viola for Symphonic Orchestra, read books during the night, and study for the S.A.T. (which was indeed, way too early for me). I was prompted to act because I recently found my ambitions for my future. My ultimate educational goal is to become some sort of engineer (undecided, but it’s related to this field), have the highest GPA possible, and obtain acceptance into University of Michigan. These ambitions didn’t hit me at the speed of light, but naturally throughout my ninth grade as I transition to a broader level of education.…
