Mhc Personal Statement Examples

“You will never be the same. That’s a promise.” I was firstly touched by these words when I discovered MHC. I have always pursued uniqueness, whether when I practiced dancing skills painstakingly to become an elegant dancer, or persisted in community service during high school years to help ASD children and students with mental and financial issues. I found that being able to test my limits and actively engaging in supporting groups and communities were basis of uniqueness.
All these personal experiences of seeking for uniqueness with arduous efforts made me resonate with Mary Lyon, the founder of MHC. She hold revolutionary vision to transform higher education for women to whole world, overcame financial issues to open the doors to women over the world, and created unique combination of traditional teaching discipline and institutional mission. It was her foresight , determination and inclusiveness that cultivated her to be unique; and her uniqueness empowered her to lead women at MHC with knowledge, insight and self-confidence. So I believe that I can determine my unique life tracks at MHC by developing critical thinking skills, sticking to my determination, and enhancing my inclusiveness to various groups.
I’m a student who’s fascinated by sociology and communication. Having read Rousseau’s “Social Contract” and volunteered regularly, I understood that the self is a product of social interactions with others, and I’m eagerly to participant in “practicing sociology” project at MHC, where I can deepen my understanding towards community and put sociological theories into practice. I also hope to join Roosevelt at MHC, where thinkers and doers focus on social realities. I’ll share insights and foster personal growth by engaging in social justice and studying relationship between individual and society
