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.…

A few qualities that i can contribute to Texas Tech include: Leadership,A willingness to take risks A sense of social responsibility and a commitment to service. For example, when i was a Kennel Tech at the Timberline Animal Hospital, one of my roles was to make sure that all of the dogs and cats had there necessary medicines at different times of the day.

As a first time student attending Spokane Falls Community College, I honestly thought that the only buildings and areas of campus involving my class schedule would be of importance. Little did I know that one room I would encounter would become my safe haven. I remember the first day stepping out onto campus and all I saw was a giant riddle waiting to be solved so many parking spaces, buildings, rooms, classes, and students. The anticipation bubbling up inside of me was exciting and rooted with a little nervousness. I was searching for place to keep me focused on my goal of being a successful student, a place to refresh between rigorous lectures.…
Being the first in the family to take interest in college is already enough for everyone to push me in the direction to achieving it. I do not want to disappoint them or myself, I want to be on the graduation stage with my hand grasping that master degree. About me, others describe me as opinioned, stubborn and independent. Although I do not want to admit it, these traits all apply to me. Opinioned doesn’t sound as an appealing word to me I should say I like for people to understand my views completely also I don’t mind if someone does not agree with me, it just adds more depth to the discussion.…
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.…
At the age of 17, Tom was enrolled at Kent State College to major in health and physical education and minor in biology and later went to Sacramento State to get his masters in school administration. While in college, my grandpa was unsure about what he wanting to do for a living but knew after he got a D in accounting, he did not want to sit behind a desk for his life.

Tom didn't try very hard at school but picked up many part time jobs to teach him real life lessons. One job he had was he would referee children's sports games at the local park and make $5 per game.…
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.…

I plan to play football and attend college full-time as a student-athlete at this University. I like this college specifically because I feel I can balance my practice and class schedule well in this atmosphere. This school is a great fit for me because it has one of the top Pre-Nursing programs, in which I plan to major in, and a top notch Sports-Med program in which I plan to minor in. Also while working towards my degree, I will be part of a team that is one of the best in the NCAA Division 1 level, with a coaching staff that can teach me valuable lessons and what it means to really be a man. I put my all into everything I do and commit myself to perfecting my craft, and the faculty…
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.…
The experience that I would use to display all of these personal qualities would be my first semester at Miami University. I chose this experience because it has taught me to become comfortable within the uncomfortable and create an environment where I am able to adapt quickly to my surroundings. My first semester at college has made me become more independent, willing to push outside of my comfort zones, open-minded, and able to persevere through isolation. Throughout my first semester at Miami University, I’ve learned to become more independent, through most of the daily responsibilities that I hold.…

My wonderful experience in Jose Maria College. I never thought that I will end up studying in the institution. I was so nervous in the campus because many people were looking to me.
