I would like to attend the College of Charleston and to major in business administration. I believe that I have the interest, personality, and drive to succeed in the business world with the knowledge I gain at the college. My goal is to obtain an undergraduate degree in business administration and then to go on to get my masters of business administration. I would then love to use my education to become a successful buyer for a retail store. Going to school in the heart of historic Charleston will allow me great opportunities as I work towards my goal.…
Brigham Young University. Without question. It is the school that I have planned and dreamed of attending since I learned about it. A school that combines an excellent education that prepares your for success in this life as well as a religious education that prepares you for the eternities. Such an institution and community is where I would be honored and blessed to attend.…
Imagine walking in the shoes in the shoes of a disabled or special needs child. You are very shy and you do not have many friends, but you really want to join the basketball, football, or cheerleading team. Then, tryouts come and you are too nervous to try out because tryouts themselves are overwhelming and stressful. What do you do? Do you not tryout?…
The ocean is huge. The human race has been curious about it for many years. Humans have gone on…
ES 1 Why I decided to go to college: I come from a low middle class, country living, used car driving in the forest of Pennsylvania family. I have five sisters and no brothers, three older and two younger, I was still the best looking. My oldest sister Cheryl went to college, the next oldest Becky, did Dental Assistant School an my older sister by a year Charlotte I’m not sure cause I went off to become a Marine. I didn’t have any plans to go to college, I basically blew off the 7th – 10th grade, doing the bare minimum just enough to get by.…
Free community college for the first two years around the whole country many would either like this idea or dislike it. This idea was brought by President Barack Obama but some students from Rio Hondo College are disagreeing with his idea. Some think this isn’t a very good idea because there are some people who can afford paying for it and those who get low income get help which is practically free for them already. As in others think that it should be free which would allow students that want to go to college but they don’t receive enough funds to be able to go which ends up causing them to just work and not go to college due to low income. College shouldn’t be free if people can afford it and those who can’t should be getting help which…
Growing up is was no question whether or not I was going to college, it was an automatic yes for me. No one had to ever ask me if I was going to college because they all knew that the answer is yes. The reason why I knew that I had to go to college was because everyone in my family went to college; now don’t just think that because everyone in my family went to college that we are a bunch of rich snobs. We have all been hit with the reality of struggles in life. That’s why I learned quickly that you don’t just go to college so you can get a better education you have to be able to do something with that education.…

Many factors play into the cost of college, but a degree will benefit individuals immensely down the road. The benefits of college are worth the cost because of larger salaries, better job availability, and a happy and healthy quality of life.…
The Right Choice: Success in Going Back to College “Congratulations!” One single word with so much meaning. A word that is frequently uttered on graduation day; a word that brings a sense pride and accomplishment, recognizing that long hours, hard work, sweat and tears, are put in to achieve an end goal: a college degree. Before taking the leap to go back to college, there are many things that must be taken into consideration to guarantee success.…
I grew up in what is considered a low income family, but I’ve always wanted to go to college. Before I even understood the concept of degrees, I would tell my parents “I want to go to college for seven years!” because I thought we could just choose how long we could go to college for. As I grew up, my goals became realistic. Instead of being president, however, I now want to do something that involves helping others and educating.…
In my first semester at Valencia College, I have met many brilliant minds. The people I met here do not deserve the stigma that centers around attending a community college. This school is their second chance. Often enough it is their only chance. The students I have met here have different stories.…
Writing about affordable college was hard, but made simple for me. I Started looking into why we should have affordable college, and then reasons on why we shouldn't. Looking into what is to come if we make all public higher education is affordable for everybody shouldn't be such a hard concept to grasp. When I started my research I was introduced to a man named Bernie Sanders; a man who some would say he is the change America needs, others would say he is destroying the foundations of America that we have been building for years. Either way you look at this controversy I think you should know not only the statistics of free or affordable college, but to enlighten you on why affording college is not a topic you should say yes or no to before you hear the full argument.…
Everybody in high school is obsessed with the idea of prom but its honestly not worth all of the hype. Prom is not only very expensive, its also way over rated, and a huge waste of time. All of the girls are always worried about who 's going to ask them to be their date. All the guys don’t really care for it but they do whatever they can to make the girls happy and keep them happy.…
“Come on, get out of the car. It's not a big deal. You need to get to school,” Those were words that I commonly heard the second half of my freshman year of high school. Of course most high school age kids don’t want to go to school, but it's for trivial reasons like the fact the work is boring. I didn’t want to go to school for a much more complicated reason; anxiety rushed through my body any time I even thought about getting close to the school building.…
Throughout history, schools and colleges all over the world have taught students during the week and closed on the weekends. Back then, it was a normal schedule and nobody thought it could be changed in any way to be more productive. In today’s society, universities have the option to have classes only four days of the week, instead of the average five. This new and prominent idea is gaining popularity from students and teachers worldwide. The four-day bell schedule is an innovative procedure that offers more benefits than detriments.…
