JMU Personal Statement

I still believe in taking this path after graduating from college After doing my research I know now the process is not going to be fast and easy, but I am beginning to prepare myself for that journey. I am more of a team member that gets the job done, and crime scene investigation is more of a team effort to get the job done. I learned a lot of useful information during the progression of the Career-Related Capstone Project with this knowledge I now believe I have the potential of having a successful career as a

DDS Scholarship Essay “You must aspire to be someone in life. You must take the opportunities put in your path and make the most of your accomplishments.” My father has always told me this throughout my life and has taught me to never let a chance slip away from my grip. Once the opportunity of receiving this scholarship crossed my path, I had to take it. Several events in my life have shaped me to become the student and person I am today. Education is a valuable treasure, and with it you can do anything.

As winter faded away and spring thankfully arrived with the news of receiving an offer from a british University, I buckled down and started self studying for the AP exams I needed to receive a five on; in order to meet their offer requirements. After weeks of taking released past exams and learning that Red Bull doesn 't affect me, I taped down my last AP label and

I realized my love for law when I watched those shows and went on my job shadow. I knew I wanted to be a crime scene investigator/officer and could see myself doing the job in the future. I am attending college to make a better life for myself, network with future employers through the honors program, gain experience through internships, and gain hands on experience in Forensic Science and Criminal Justice. I will learn skills necessary for my occupation goal. Some of the skills

My past experiences have shown me that with passion, dedication and hard work, I will be able to face the challenges of a law school experience at Temple University’s Beasley School of Law. I am certain that furthering my education at this institution will provide me everything necessary to become a successful juvenile defense attorney. I am ready to take on this new challenge and experience of pursuing a law degree so that I can make gradual progress towards establishing equality for a better

After finishing High School, I felt like I had just accomplished a chapter in my life. I was now moving on to college to pursue a bachelor 's degree in Criminal Justice. I would be attending Santa Monica College, starting fall of 2016. I decided to go to SMC to experience its culturally diverse environment. My first semester I had many obstacles; however, it was worth it because at the end I learned to not give up.

On a day like this I think to myself what does life have in store for me? Here I’m going to write about what I hope as I begin taking Social Work courses. I hope to pass all of my courses and graduate one day with my bachelor’s degree from Heritage University. I also hope that after graduating Heritage, I find a job so I can save up money and attend a master’s program because college is not cheap. I want to attend Walla Walla University and graduate from there as well, with a Master’s in Social Work.

This is Kacy Norton from the Mental Health Field. We met a couple of weeks ago to discuss my credits and certain courses I should take in order to graduate within the next two years. During the meeting you informed me that summer classes are a good way to stay ahead and are recommended so I 'm not overloaded with work during my practiucm or internship. Due to my summer schedule the only available class I could is take is COU 515- Play Therapy as an elective. I was wondering if COU515 would be acceptable for my "Specialty Area" since students need approval by advisor for these courses

From an early age I have always had an interest in the legal system, as a child of divorcees the legal system has always had an impact on my life. I have always dreamed about being a family lawyer and have hoped that through hard work and dedication I could make my dream a reality; enter law school, successfully complete the bar exam and utilize my knowledge of the law to help those who may otherwise be left in the cold by the legal system. As I have grown older I have a new understanding of the realities of just how difficult it will be to make my dreams a reality. When writing this application, I had difficulty figuring out what I can say that will set me apart from other candidates. I almost feel as though everything that I will say has been said before and there are most likely some situations that sound more sympathetic than my own.

The academic success I’ve had during my final two years at college has only made me hungrier for more success. I have already set aside the blueprint for my study schedule in anticipation for law school. Villanova Law School still remains one of my top institutions to attend in Fall 2016. My experiences balancing sports, school, and work gives me an upper hand on prospective students that only had to worry about academics during their time in undergrad. Athletes, overall, have a strong desire to strive for perfection, and although it will be the toughest challenge of my life thus far, I am ready to put in the work in order to achieve law school excellence at Villanova

Further, this opportunity has allowed me to practice public speaking which will follow me far beyond the confines of the Independence Youth Court. The confidence in speaking in a courtroom that I have gained from volunteering has given me a new outlook on my future. Before volunteering, I never would have thought my dream would be to become an attorney and argue in front of a court. However, the Independence Youth Court has inspired me to go to law school and follow this dream that I once thought was impossible. I truly have a passion for the judicial system and the Independence Youth Court has guided me through the discovery of this passion and through finding the confidence to know it is possible.

I have always had an interest in the criminal justice field, but my greatest influence was in the eighth grade when a police officer, Michael Owens, gave me my first ever West Virginia Legal Codes book. By giving me this book, he influenced me a lot. He showed me that I could do anything I set my mind and that he believed in me, just by giving me a simple book. Since then, I have committed to my decision of becoming a lawyer and is why I now take Criminal Justice courses at my local technical school.
