Improved Essays
For the past four years, I have attended a private high school. Due to the school’s small size, it was unable to offer many extra curricular clubs and activities for the students.

It is here that I found my passion for business and have been given knowledge, which I hope will help me in attaining my goal of being admitted to the Kelley School of Business. Currently, I am unsure which type of business I want to major in. I am excited to explore the many options the Kelley School of Business has to offer. Throughout my time at Indiana University, I also plan to take

Eager to share my passion for business, I founded DECA to give members exposure to real world working environments, state conferences, and opportunities to present their knowledge. Success was easy to obtain as post-conference enthusiasm spread first amongst members and then the rest of the school. Because of the first year’s success, the next brought many new members who were all eager to attend the DECA state conference.…
