I will serve for five years and after this I will either stay in the military or I will get a job with the degree I received from the Academy. I feel I would be an excellent candidate for this scholarship because of my determination to finish things when I start them, my work ethic, and my willingness to give back to my amazing community. When I decide to start an activity, I plan to finish it even if

    Seven years ago while in the midst of getting screamed at by an Air Force Basic Training Instructor (also known as a T.I.) I would have never guessed I would be writing a Statement of Goals to apply to the Graduate School for the Administrative Leadership program. I was not sure of the direction I was heading towards in life and especially at this specific time I thought I may have made the biggest mistake of my life. It turns out I needed some guidance and leadership. The military is full of leaders, and the T.I.’s are a great example of this.…

    At the end of high school, financial hardships at home forced me to take a serious look at how my undergraduate career was going to be paid for. I decided to accept a full scholarship to the College of DuPage where I worked hard, received strong grades, and earned a scholarship to Loyola University Chicago. I am incredibly grateful that my family was eventually able to assist me in paying for school, but without first attending community college and receiving a scholarship to Loyola, I would not be in this position today. I believe that my dedication and determination that were required in this journey are qualities that will be a great contribution to the learning community at Saint Louis University. I believe it is also important to address…

    After becoming an Eagle Scout, I wanted to give back to the Scouting community. One outlet I discovered was to staff National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT), a program designed to teach leadership to younger scouts. In this program, beginner staffers (TGs) are responsible for guiding small groups through the course. After serving on staff for two years, I was promoted to senior staff and had the opportunity to oversee the TGs and lead the whole camp. Last summer, when I again served on senior staff, I faced a challenge in guiding the TGs, and the decision I made was detrimental to the course.…
