Being a student at Hoover High School has prepared me for both college and my future career with my both my course work and my participation in the Hoover Finance Academy. I am a 4-year Finance Academy student and have excelled in the coursework and challenges it has offered. Our teachers cover all aspects of business from the origin of finance, financial services, accounting, and entrepreneurship. Our FA teachers are very focused on the “real world” side of business and instill their knowledge to us as students. I plan to major in marketing and minor entrepreneurship in college, so I feel I have and better understanding over the average student by having participated in the finance academy. The staff has always used the example of “you
This September I will be going off to high school. I will be attending Monsignor Farrell High School in Staten Island. I can’t wait to go to high school and take a big step toward adulthood. I expect a lot of things will happen in high school and I am looking forward to it.
EEE 370 Post-Mortem Assignment: A Reflection of Help My Profile As the end of spring semester in my freshman year approached, I looked towards my schedule in the fall and noticed that the first class I had to take towards my Finance minor was EEE 370. After speaking with multiple people about the class, it seemed like the perfect situation for me to further explore how my major could be applied to the real world. After going on a five-day immersion trip with the iSchool to various start-ups in New York City’s “Silicon Alley”, I developed an interest in entrepreneurship.
How life goes on we experience a lot of things that can either teach us an important lesson or nothing at all. I have learned more than one lesson in my life, but there’s one that I will always keep in mind to help others like it helped me. Thanks to John Tyler High School Drill Team I have self-confidence and courage to do risky things that I never thought I would be doing. Now I believe in myself and I don’t let fear dull my success, I fight for what I want until I get it even if it take a long time, I don’t give up that easy anymore.
Throughout the college application process, it has become increasingly evident to me that NYU is unlike other schools due to its prioritization of individuality. Coming from a small Catholic high school, one of my goals for the next four years is to branch out and better myself through being a part of a diverse and open-minded student body. The diversity of culture, religion, opinion, and even personality at NYU is extremely important to me, and shows that the school is an open and accepting environment for all. The tradition of Ally Week especially interests me, as I am constantly trying to use the privileges I have been given to the advantage of those who do not share those same privileges. This dedication to equality is truly what makes NYU
At NYU, I hope to achieve this goal. I aspire to give structure to my life by participating in rigorous courses that will enable me to pursue a career in treating mental illnesses. In the College of Arts and Sciences, I intend to acquire skills in communication, analytical thinking and understanding human social behavior, cultivating my passion for understanding what makes the human brain so fascinating. Situated in one of the largest cultural hubs of the world, NYU would allow me to, like the squiggle, explore my interests. I would be able to visit museums such as the Whitney or take part in clubs such the Slam Poetry Club and Model UN or even partake in the annual Strawberry Festival.
To Hofstra’s Financial Aid Department, I would like to thank Hofstra for admitting me as part of the class of 2021. Hofstra is an exceptional school where innovation is encouraged, as evidenced by the multitude of entrepreneur competitions that provides opportunities for students to achieve their goals and visions. My personal goal and vision are to attend Hofstra university for I know that the programs at Hofstra are focused on developing students to pioneer ideas and influence the future. I myself aspire to develop programs to positively pave the path for the next generation; By developing a non-profit that allows students to easily understand their financial situation and inexpensively send their reports to colleges, students from middle and lower economic backgrounds will not be
College is one of the most stimulating stages we experience, it's the very first step as we trail up the ascending staircase to our goals and desires. NYU is the college of my greatest interest as I am aware of the opportunities which this school will provide me with. As a child of immigrants who have come to this country to see their daughter prosper academically, I know that my parents can rest assured that I will be able to explore the wide range of programs which are tailored to students needs. More specifically the field of Neural Science. NYU is one of the schools in New York City with a valued Neural Science Program.
The heart of New York City is New York University. By joining the network of NYU, I will be able to study at an institution that has a long tradition of academic excellence among private universities in the United States. Additionally, I will be able to be part of an internationally recognized learning network with locations all across the globe. It would be a pleasure to study at a globally recognized university. A friend of mine who is a recent graduate from NYU College of Nursing has praised the program and conveyed to me a very positive experience.
At some point between my graduation from the University of Kansas in 2011, and the opening of my graduate career at Arizona State University, I began to realize that the great majority of the literature which resonated strongest with me came directly from or was somehow closely affiliated with the modernist period. It was this dawning recognition which led me to ASU in 2013, as my awareness of the period’s impact on my life began to gel, an awareness that recognized the coherent progression from a youthful interest in Rex Stout, to a teenage one in William Faulkner and Virginia Woolf, to an adult passion for Ezra Pound and his mystifying Cantos. With this recognition came an urgent need, a demand to understand the draw of works from this period and to find a way to share the excitement about language which I experienced in reading them with others. My master’s degree study at ASU provided me with the tools and opportunities for beginning to tackle these concerns. I worked extensively with Gregory Castle on projects in the field of modernism, developing from a relationship established in a course on aesthetic theory in my second semester.
As I think of the University of Mississippi, the aspect that most impresses me, and is an addition to my desire to immerse myself in this prominent learning community is the University's outstanding resources. I am very attracted to the opportunity to explore and learn at the University of Mississippi's science departments. Science has been my academic passion ever since I entered middle school. Since then, I have always wanted to get into the medical field to become a neurologist. I believe the brain is a black box with endless mysteries waiting to be explored.
I have always retained a keen passion in learning about medicine and dreamed about becoming a pediatrician. As I learned more about NYU, I fell more in love with the university, aspiring to one day step into the halls of the school and make my mark. I believe it was the perfect place for me to start my pre-medical studies into one day becoming a doctor. When I first ventured in and around NYU in New York City, my eyes sparkled at the marvel of the campus. It is not one's typical campus.
Working on a personal level, especially children, has always appealed to me. Whether it be babysitting, tutoring, mentoring, or volunteering I have always been involved in activities that allow me to interact with others. While attending Ohio State University I discovered some great opportunities to engage in more advanced fields and tie my passion with my major. I became Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) certified and worked with an adolescent male on the autism spectrum multiple nights a week. I worked with my advisor to create and modify a behavior plan with a rewards system to help with his social, vocational, and independence skills.
As a student who really enjoys the world of investments and other finance related issues, I will be applying to the Finance program at the University of Arizona’s Eller College of Management. The world of finance has always been of great interest to me ever since I started to build my own investment portfolio. Once admitted to Eller, I look forward to building and developing all the necessary skills to obtain a job in the field of finance upon my graduation from the Eller College of Management. Since the start of my college career at the University of Arizona in Fall 2015, I have had the opportunity to participate in a multitude of things which I feel make me an excellent candidate for a spot in the finance program. Since my time here I have
Our world is like a card game. We get dealt our hand. Win, lose, or draw, the game continues to unfold. Society is filled with a myriad of opportunities that act as cards waiting to be revealed. With the exposure to a plethora of opportunities in a university, from a global reach to academic centers on six continents to having the city as a classroom, one can easily unearth their passions at NYU.
Medicine is a human miracle on earth. It never fails to baffle my mind as how it can transform an ailing person to a healthy one. I observed my mother with a brain tumor. It was depressing but thanks to science and medicine our lives have completely changed. Medicine has the power to save lives and change this world.
