College Admissions Essay: My Dream Career Path

Superior Essays
I 'll be the first to admit that I have absolutely no clue what I’m doing with my life. Most of the time, I wonder why I’m even paying roughly $25,000 a year just to get most of my general courses out of the way when I could go to a local branch of Ohio University for free. But then I remember one of the main reasons I chose Miami. I may not yet know what I’m doing or plan to major in, but Miami is a big school that presents a large variety of opportunities for me to explore and find my dream career path. Though at some points already in my freshman semester I question my judgement and choices on what classes I decide to take, I feel confident knowing that Miami will prepare me for a lifetime of success, whatever that may be.
My ultimate dream job: working for Disney in Orlando, Florida. I hope to someday work for a company and place I love. My love for Disney will never end, because I truly believe it is the happiest place on Earth. I myself love going there and experiencing all new things, and if I could help a family plan their trip and see the joy brought to their child’s face, then my job would be worth it. I aspire to be a Disney travel agent, and hopefully, work directly for the company so I can receive their benefits, but if not, I would also love to

Right now, I’m currently just working on getting my Miami Plan courses out of the way while exploring some education and SLAM courses. Being completely honest again, though this is my dream job, I haven 't actually considered it as something I possibly major in. I consider it a dream job that I would do in my spare time in the future, or work on doing after I retired from another job. Though I haven’t taken or looked into any classes that would help me pursue this career, I have joined Miami’s Disney College Program Alumni and Friends Association, and look forward to partaking in a Disney internship in my years here at

    What I discovered, in time, was that helping others is not just a fulfilling purpose, but a moral responsibility.

In my high school years, I worked at my local medical center, rotating among different departments including emergency, physical therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and radiology. Just as I sold popcorn for Boy Scouts and had to learn to deal with the public, within the office I also had to be diplomatic.…

    As I look at my life path, including my career life and education, it has always been filled with diversity and changes, but the one thing that I always held at the center of my choices was my desire to find that spark within learners (of all ages) that when lit would help them to realize and achieve their full potential. At this point in my educational path, I would like to achieve certification to work in an area that I have been drawn to since I was in high school. I feel that my past experiences, my education to this point and my love for education will benefit those whose lives I am able to touch by pursuing teacher certification.

    Deciding which college to go to is a difficult, but important decision to make. Education is an investment that determines your path. Careers are based upon the quality of your education. The type of institution that you attended in your late teens to early twenties may determine your stature in a company; it is the red flag deciding between an applicant that graduated from a local community college and an applicant that attended a well-known research university. Though it seems unfair to compare the two applicants because the decision can be made based upon financial status or others, the difference still stands and makes or breaks your job application.…
