There are many aspects of Northwestern that appeal to me. Although the lakeside campus is breathtakingly gorgeous, Northwestern’s academics are what bring me in.
Since childhood, mathematics have played a significant role in
I have always been independent, but I fully seeked independence when I was 16 years old. This was the year of 2016, and this was the year that my life changed; I was forced to grow up and learn how to be more independent. The first step to my seeking of independence was turning 16 years old and getting my driver’s license. This meant I was finally able to go out on my own and not rely on others to take me places anymore. In the year of 2016, I also began taking classes at Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute to earn college credits.…
Transitioning occurs in all stages of life whether it’s from a baby crawling to walking, or an elder moving from their home to a retirement facility. One transition in life that most of us face is the evolution from high school to a college or a university. With moving into a new phase of my life I was optimistic about the difficulties of becoming comfortable with the population, the diversity, and the college life in general that Wayne State provides. I made the leap to a big city called Detroit from a small city called my home. I live in a small urban city, downriver, called Wyandotte.…
7. SNC gave a great five paragraph order it was very detailed and straight to the point. SNC clearly articulated what he expected from each member of his fire team and assigned each member a task. SNC did lack a sense of urgency throughout the entire evolution that slowed down the progression of the mission. SNC was able to maintain great control of his fire team through decisive decision making during the execution.…
Northwestern vs. LCTI I attend both northwestern and LCTI. During my time in both I have realized quite a number of differences but for every difference there similarities. While I do have a preference to one of the schools I can recognize how fortunate I am to have attended both.…
From both the research and the award, I decided that Rensselaer met my standards when it came to academic reputation and student involvement. I became interested in Rensselaer because of its rigorous academics. As I look into Rensselaer, what stood out was its 5 schools. In a way it makes Rensselaer unique for its interdisciplinary curriculum. Specifically, I was attracted to the School of Engineering, which focused on a solid foundation to build off with liberal arts background.…
I went to a college rep visit and the also toured a perspective college. As i do not fulfill the language requirement for california universities I looked into community colleges, out of state universities, and private universities. I then focused on a Johnson and Wales university rep visit and a tour of Sierra Community College. I ultimately chose to go with Sierra.…
I take night classes because I work during the day, and after a long day at Glendale Community College all I want to do is jump into my bed and fall asleep as quickly as possible, but my annoying little sister whom I share my room with snores like there’s no tomorrow. We’ve all heard college students never get sufficient sleep, and I being a full time college student need that sleep.…
Once, I stepped onto Weber State University my fears, anxiety, and stress of college was thrown to the side. Even though I didn't know anyone at the institution, the campus already felt like a home away from home. On the soothing campus, I could not help but realize the peaceful yellow and orange leaves that started to trickle down to my path. I saw that Weber State is dedicated to creating a perfect atmosphere for students to grow and develop into intelligent, well-rounded adults. The elegant Math and Science building illustrated Weber State is an environment where I can thrive and grow.…
As the semester comes to a conclusion, so far I have been very satisfied with my performance thus far here at Slippery Rock University. Being in college has really given me the opportunity to meet so many new people that have been able to positively impact in such a big way. May it be through helping me study for exams or just a great group of friends that I can go hang out with. Don’t get me wrong there most definitely has been some rocky moments here and there but I feel that I really pushed through those moments and have made the best out of them.…
I started attending Lone star college right after high school, at first, I began with the typical high school graduate state of mind, which was that college was going to be a breeze and that it would all be fun and games; more worried about what was going on in my social life rather than studying the books. Especially since I had no real responsibilities to handle or much life experience. Around my first year of college, I started dating this girl and not long after we conceived our first son. Once this happened, my focus slowly shifted from school to working a full-time job at a welding shop in order to provide for my family. I still tried to attend class but was unable to find the balance between work, school and family and this reflected my grades.…
My journey to Concordia began at a show for Tyler Oakley in Kalamazoo Michigan. There my mom met a woman who had went and worked at Concordia Ann Arbor and mentioned that all the Concordias are awesome schools to go to. As they talked more about all of the things that Concordia Ann Arbor has to offer she said there was also one in Chicago. That is how I came to the discovery of Concordia University Chicago. I first visited Concordia Ann Arbor and fell in love with the campus.…
Because my mind was already so set on this plan, it felt as though my options at this event were fairly limited. I saw no point in visiting the booths belonging to schools that were not on my “to-do list”. However, boredom and curiosity drew me to consider possibilities I had previously neglected—and now, though I have become more uncertain of what exactly will be the plot for the next decade or so, I can safely say that the future looks much brighter than it had before. In keeping with the decisions I had already made, I immediately looked for LSU’s and Northshore’s…
Basketball has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around the sport with my Grandpa being a referee and playing little league ball through elementary school. In High-School being six foot six inches it was a given I would play basketball. I spent three years on the varsity basketball team with having the privilege of being a Captain my senior year. When I was accepted to Michigan State University it was hands down the easiest decision to come here.…
Exposure to WSU As a kid who grew up in the suburbs of Detroit I was never exposed to the city of Detroit very often. Now I've been to for multiple events Detroit. I have been to various sporting events, concerts, car shows, art fairs, museums, family dinners and so on... So I’m not oblivious to what is happening in Detroit, but, I have never been to the Wayne State Campus and its surroundings.…
The motto of the University of Chicago, in English, means “Let knowledge grow from more to more; and so be human life enriched,” and to me, the idea behind that message makes up a great deal of the allure of the University of Chicago. Expanding my knowledge and further enriching my life are two of my greatest goals, and the University of Chicago embodies those ideals like no other university can. Through the variety of excellent, easily accessible opportunities in the city of Chicago and the top tier education available at the university itself, the University of Chicago provides the kind of atmosphere that I crave. Chicago is widely regarded as one of the most interesting cities in the country for a multitude of reasons. The beautiful location on the bank of Lake Michigan is complemented by the multitude of cultural icons in the city.…
