Hard-working, determination, and a set mind show how I can prove myself and demonstrate the likelihood of success. My goals in college are keeping my Dean’s Scholarship for all four years, getting through college, and make it into the academy to make my way to my dream career in the FBI.
To begin, keeping my Dean’s Scholarship, for that I will do what I have been doing and what got me that Scholarship. Working extremely hard, focusing on school more than anything else. Paying more attention to homework and classes are the top prioties I have for keeping good grades, thus keeping my scholarship, for all four years.
Next, getting through college, that one sounds easier than it is. I see it as like its “easier said than done”. Which it is, people
Rudy’s best friend was the only one who believed he could. Though Rudy’s grades were not great in high school; he worked hard to get decent grades in college. Rudy was given the opportunity to attend a community college to earn better grades that would get him into Notre Dame. Rudy studied endlessly to get B’s and A’s in his classes. The road to reaching my goal is a difficult one. To develop a story will be a long, difficult process and I will struggle with scenes and character development. My goal will be difficult to achieve, but I will never stop working hard to achieve my
The first goal i would like to achieve is to get a GPA of 3.5 - 3.8 or higher and to get honor roll. I will achieve this goal by focusing more on my grades and paying more attention in my classes. This goal is important to me because I want to show my family I can do better this year. When I get the paper that says that you were in honor roll. I will
Now that I’ve covered why I financially need this scholarship, let me explain why I have earned it. This past year has been a whirlwind. I ended my junior year with 34 credit hours, 20 of which were earned second
Although neither my parents nor my older siblings have college degrees, as a child, I don't remember ever planning my future using the phrase “if I go to college.” From a very young age, it was always “when I go to college.” For me, a postsecondary education is the logical next step in my life, the missing puzzle piece to get me where I want to go. For a long time, I believed that the only reason anyone would choose not to was because they were academically or financially incapable. In “Are Too Many People Going to College?”, Charles Murray refutes this belief, examining the increasing accessibility of a college education and how our culture pushes people who may not need it to attend anyways.
These three interconnected goals alongside my optimistic attitude connect me to my future because they lay the path toward its realization. During college, I plan to major in physics and mathematics, but I expect to take a wide variety of courses to maintain my well-rounded nature. With this broad background and focus on personal goals, I feel confident that I will meet my career objective and dream of becoming a physicist. How do my goals provide the means to meet my objective? My avid pursuit of volunteerism encourages me to maintain a career path on which I may develop technologies that will help people. Once I obtain employment, I hope to be able to utilize my leadership skills on the job site as an expert in my field; however, in order to obtain that employment initially, I must complete college and graduate school, which will require that I excel in my classes. If I achieve my goals, I will certainly set myself up to successfully meet my ultimate objective.
Gary Colombo, Robert Cullen, and Bonnie Lisle in their book “Rereading America” feel that commencing college is a very disturbing experience. So many things we have to deal while starting college, but the major challenges are expanded difficulty levels and higher expectation which we are not familiar over the years of high school. In order to solve this issue, we have to remodel ourselves by taking up the challenge and rethink about our strength and flaws. To succeed in college we need to be mentally strong and dedicated towards our goal.
To begin, there are numerous scholastic achievements that have made me and my family proud. One of the most important scholastic achievement has been my acceptance to CSUSM. As a first generation college student, my acceptance and determination to pursue a higher education has become by far the most extraordinary scholastic achievement. Since my acceptance to CSUSM two years ago, I have been admitted to the Dean’s List three semesters. In high school, I received two years of presidential excellence for maintaining a 3.5 GPA and higher. As well, I was part of the National Honor Society in high school which has carried on to
In my first reflection, I elaborated on my personal goals in relation to my experiences at Spelman College. I spoke about how those experiences have influenced my goals. Since then my goals have not changed, however I have become more determined to reach those goals. My overall determination stems from the fact that I am surrounded by a vast group of intelligent and talented women. My Spelman sisters push me to reach greater heights, and they encourage me to not just be mediocre. Therefore, the consistency of my goals, my influences to acquire my goals, and my aspiration to achieve my goals all contribute to my success at Spelman College thus far.
My goal of finishing this degree is like a delicious sundae I have a long time building, yet have not let myself indulge in. Every accomplishment has become a topping, making it more appealing. Receiving a scholarship would be a cherry on this grand sundae I have been preparing and will one day delight in, not on my own, but in harmony with my remarkably enduring
Beginning with the fatalistic discourse utilized by my family, peers, and educators, I internalized such thoughts, and implicitly understood that, quite naturally, I would make the predestined transition to college from high school. Finding
school but is it truly that easy? The main factor to attending college now is the money issue. In
The expectation that I hold for myself in life is success. I have many goals I wish to achieve in my future; however, the only obstacle in my way is hard work and myself. Of my many ambitions there are still many out of my reach, but of the ones achievable without too many years passing are the issues I’m considering and preparing for already. More than anything, I wish to graduate as Valedictorian of my class, be accepted into a college with a free-ride, and when I move to my new school for senior year I will still try to follow my dreams no matter the challenge. After high school, I plan to attend several challenging colleges some ideas are UT Martin or Vanderbilt. This education will allow me to live my life as I wish; with a high paying
Goals, goals, goals they're what people think about and how they are going to achieve them in the future. My three goal in life are to get in the college of my choice, go skydiving and to get a well paying job. These three goals are important to me because they are what I am likely to achieve within the next ten years. As I grow and blossom into someone big, someone bigger than who I am today I don’t mean just physically but bigger intellectually, and more capable. These goals show me that if I want to achieve them, then I have to work hard to accomplish them.
Six years after graduating High School, I have finally decided to pursue a college education. Three, fairly common, factors played in to my decision to go back to school: learning new things, building confidence in myself and pursuing my desired career. I understand that graduating college is a difficult task, which is why I must make a plan for my success and stick to it. I must also rely on my personal strengths and my motivation to guide me through the tough times that I am sure to experience on my road to success to get my degree in Criminal Justice. I have always been a person who is eager to learn new things.
The goals are a personal investment of my time, commitment, and effort in planning for my future. My goals represent a clear path with a timeframe to achieve my goals, such as completing my bachelor’s degree, attending workshops for advancing my technological skills, and obtaining a higher level position in my current workplace or finding new employment.
