I graduated from high school in 2013, and attended James Madison University from August 2013 to December 2014. I began having health problems during the 2014 fall semester and when the semester ended I withdrew from the classes I had taken and returned home on a medical leave of absence. When I returned home, I spent the spring semester focusing on my health so that I would be able to get better and return to JMU. After taking the spring semester off, I decided to work at a landscaping company to help give me something to focus on again. When that went smoothly, I signed up for one summer class at my local community college. I enjoyed being able to take a class again, and received an “A”. I knew I was ready to continue pursuing my degree, but wanted to remain close to home while I continued to recover …show more content…
My time away has helped me realize, with more certainty than I ever thought possible, exactly what I want to do with my life. I determined what I will major in when I return to JMU. I also established clear career goals beyond graduation. Ultimately, my dream is to become a special agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Ever since I was little, I have always had a strong desire for justice in the world. I want to work for an organization that can help create a more just society. In researching qualifications needed for the FBI, I found that the combination of critical thinking skills developed in a liberal arts curriculum, an accounting degree, and a background in foreign language, will prepare me well. Upon my return to JMU, I plan to major in accounting and minor in Arabic, with an academic interest in pre-law. After finishing my bachelor’s degree at JMU, I plan to attend law school. JMU’s excellent reputation, particularly in business, can help me achieve these
Petition to take POLSC-10-Online Hello All, As this academic year is coming to it’s conclusion, I have reflected and sorted out an academic plan that I believe is realistic for me. I plan to graduate Academy of the Redwoods with an associates degree in political science, and one day achieve a masters in the field, with a minors in American studies. There is no doubt in my mind that makes me feel incapable of finishing such as task while still achieving all high school requirements.

During my junior year of high school, I became enrolled in multiple different classes through CCCC. Throughout both my junior and senior year I have been
Similar to other immigrants my family history is somewhat compelling. Starting with my grandfather who was exiled out of Egypt in 1959 primarily as a result of the "decolonization process and the rise of Egyptian nationalism”, my immediate family and I also left France in 2004 as a result of rising tension against Jews. The migration of my grandparents and parents, from a young age, cultivated a sense of determination in me to overcome obstacles. Arriving in Miami at age 5, I had to learned my third language, English, in order to attend school. I was determined to and successfully lost my accent and got tested into the gifted program after a year of school.
Upon graduating high school, I enrolled at the University of Oklahoma with a clear-cut idea of what I wanted to pursue. I declared a major in biology and began my academic career. During this time I was able to continue shadowing, but experienced a slight set back. Like many individuals, it took me some time to adapt to the college lifestyle and my GPA suffered from that. Upon maturation though I was able to get back onto the right path and develop the necessary habits to achieve things like the Dean’s and President’s Honor Rolls for multiple semesters and was able to declare a minor in
After graduating from UNCG, I waited for a year before going back to school but I continued to volunteer and also,
Before my sophomore year I found out that I was pregnant with my son. I decided to take a year away from school to embrace being a new mom before going back to school. Being a new mom and working I found it very hard to go back in the classroom so I a decided to finish out school online. I begun online classes at Everest College online. During this time I also relocated to Albany New York where I obtained my Associate degree in Business administration from Everest College online.
I am most attracted to Loma Linda University’s mission to make man whole and continue the teaching and healing ministry of Jesus Christ and its commitment to faith and science. As a Seventh-day Adventist christian, the motto to make man whole has never been more personal than it is now. As I grow in my experience as a christian, to further the teaching and healing ministry of Jesus continues to take center stage. This mission and an understanding of the need for whole person care is something I seek to demonstrate and encourage through my profession as a nurse and involvement in my community.
I am interested in Howard University because it is an HBCU that encompass the themes of cultural diversity and education. Your commitment to scholars ensures me that at your school I will be right at home. Since I intend on on going down a medical path, I know that Howard University will provide me with best resources to follow my dreams. As a child I was always interested in the worlds around me and how things worked. As a result I participated in a Summer Enrichment Program located at Indiana University in Bloomington.
My academic interest at USC is to pursue a path down the business administration field, to grow my knowledge and to understand how to apply concepts taught in class into the real world. I believe that the Marshall School of Business is one of the best places in the country where I can learn and grasp the intricate structure of business administration, particularly in entrepreneurship. My goal in life is to one day own a business starting from the foundation working up to however vastly it may grow. With one of the best entrepreneurship programs in the nation, Marshall goes far beyond the average business curriculum, which is what I’m yearning for. At USC I intended to pursue internships with companies that can provide insight of how businesses
Wayne County Community College is a focused yet disconnected box. This is understandable; a bulk of the students are older, more experienced, and already involved their field of choice moving towards a known purpose with little time to focus elsewhere. For an older student , this college could be the extent of their educational journey. However, for a younger student, this district is a transitional point rather than an end. Despite it 's stagnated nature, WCCCD has been a wonderful experience.
I am destined to seek a career in research, telecommunication industry and teaching. My research interest is towards wireless communication, optimisation algorithms, game theory, signal processing related to future 5th generation (5G) cellular technology and heterogeneous wireless networks. The research intends to develop wireless communication protocols for 5G systems. Given my academic background and skill set I believe I will be an apt addition in Melbourne University research team. I am honored of the fact that I would get an opportunity to work with ARC sponsored project at Melbourne University.
When I researched more, I found the school offers a learning possibility incomparable to any other in the nation and perhaps the world. Whereas with many universities there are limited learning methods, UPenn offers possibilities beyond the conventional textbook. I especially want to engage in the university’s experiential learning approach where I will be able to participate in programs like the Wharton Leadership Ventures (WLV). By achieving a BBA in Management at UPenn, not only will I be able to effectively absorb lessons necessary for my administrative career, but also excel with my philanthropic
