Like his brothers (Julius, Edgar, & William), John too attended Howard University. During his matriculation at Howard, John made a point to leave behind a lasting impression. Holding roles in student government as Freshman Class President and leadership roles as President of the History Club and Kappa Sigma Debating Club (just as his brother Edgar A Love). Displaying versatility, John wasn’t simply…
University of Miami, Florida State University, and Florida and Agricultural and Mechanical University are all outstanding colleges but the great Bethune-Cookman University caught my attention. Bethune had a great faculty and staff and the people were very friendly when I came to Daytona for orientation. My best friend of eight years, Bethune’s great nursing program, and how God is involved in everything you do on campus is what brought me here.…
I am writing in regards to the Adjunct Professor of Psychology position opening in the Psychology Department. Judson University’s faith identity mentions several fundamental principles that are important in my life as well as my upbringing as Baptist. Considering that, Judson University bases its learning based on the fundamentals of education and Christianity is a holistic method of teaching students.…
I am writing to apply to become a certified instructor for UConn Early College Experience.…
Upon entering my freshman year of college I recognized I was not fully prepared for the rigorous academic scheme provided at my school, Howard University. One of the main observations was my peers received educational training in Advanced Placement General Chemistry, Advanced Placement Organic Chemistry and even had the opportunity to attend actual college courses during his/her high school careers. Those classes were not an option for me through my high school. Soon I found myself falling into a pit of failure. Long hours of studying and tutoring only produced D’s, F’s and an occasional C on my Chemistry reports. I was thoroughly ready to quit. I still remember sitting in my professor’s office in tears when he informed me that my academic…
I have the utmost confidence that Rutgers University can both aid me and provide the opportunity to significantly contribute to my primary educational, desired career, and overall life goals. With your exceptionally well regarded campus, student diversity, educational atmosphere, brilliant programs, and the mere fact that you have recently provided the student body with the choice of this great states only NROTC program, how could it not? Rutgers offers near anything a student could desire to study and pursue, and with Rutgers beside you, I certainly believe that ones possibilities are infinite. The honor of being able to attend Rutgers is something I've always desired, but have yet to achieve. Perhaps now will be my time.…
I started taking classes part-time at OSU my junior year of high school, and full-time my senior year. By the time I graduated high school, I took 40 credit hours of classes at OSU and had a 3.81 OSU GPA. Despite the tough coursework I found time to partake in numerous extracurricular activities. When I officially joined OSU as a freshman, I joined the small biomedical science major and biological sciences group. In these groups, I have not only helped my peers with their academics, but I have given them guidance on how to simultaneously manage both their academics and fitness pursuits.…
Today I received a message in my student email about my academic progress. I was denied Financial Aid due to my poor academic performance my 2015-2016 semester at Mesa Community College. The reason for not meeting academic requirements the previous semester was because of my lack of organization with working, sports, and studying. I take full responsibility in not putting my academics before sports and work leading me to write this letter. I truly believed I could juggle working 20 hours a week as a swim instructor and also be a student-athlete for Mesa Community College while maintaining strong grades. I soon found myself struggling in classes and doing poorly on exams because I was not using my time correctly and pushing my school work to the side. In high school I worked as a swim instructor and ran cross country as I am now, I put little effort into studying and did what I had to do to get by. Those poor habits followed me into college and are now backfiring with proof through my GPA.…
Growing up I have always been a dreamer, one to dream for the stars. One day I decided I was going to reach for the stars and achieve my dreams, in order to do that I had to go off on my own and explore the world to find myself to find my dreams.…
I am a born leader and I would love to be able to bring my passion for leading and hard-work to Indiana University. Over the years I have moved a lot and been to four different schools throughout middle school and high school. At first it was a struggle to keep my grades up while trying to make friends and play sports, but I have since found that the key is all things in moderation. I play tennis and am a cheerleader for my high school and plan on continuing these sports while at IU. I love the spirit that revolves around the school sports and other events at Indiana University. I would be very involved with keeping the Indiana Hoosier traditions alive. I also plan to be involved with the Greek life at Indiana University. If I am given the opportunity to attend Indiana University, I would want to study business.…
My love for Marquette University started with the campus. Being nestled in the heart of Milwaukee, Marquette feels like a close-knit community, but has an open, urban vibe. During my first campus trip I toured all of the main buildings, and was particularly impressed by the new engineering building. The tour guides encouraged questions from prospective students. They didn’t give us canned responses, or answer from a script; instead they gave thoughtful and concise answers that showed what Marquette is all about. Marquette’s prestigious engineering department, academic excellence, and famed namesake all led me to want to attend more than any other school.…
I knew that this would be a challenging task for a majority of students, since many students are still learning their letter-sound correspondence; however, I was able to successfully complete this strategy with the class’s highest student. I displayed an image on my screen of a little boy throwing a frisbee to his dog. I asked the student to write a sentence describing the image. The student was able to write, “The dog is running.” After the student explained what she wrote, we cut up her sentence. I explained to the student that we wanted to make her sentence grow by using descriptive words. She was then able to expand her sentence by writing “The brown dog is running.” The student then began to describe other things in the…
On my journey to Iowa State, I was hoping to make my new friends and memories. Experiences that I would always remember with joy. So far, my adventure has been fulfilled with great experiences. My freshman year of college I notice I had a common routine that I would follow everyday. It consisted of home, walking past the Campanella, and lastly my to go place, Gilman hall. Now, I am a sophomore and I still follow the same routine everyday.…
Eating an apple is political. Maybe you got it from the bodega downstairs that always smells like burnt coffee and toothpaste. Maybe that apple came from New Jersey, or maybe it came from Washington State. If it came from Washington, a trucker probably brought it to you. He might have gotten tired on the road, did a little cocaine to keep him up, lost control, and run a car off the road, injuring all five of its passengers.…
One thing thing that people may not know about me is that my family has chickens. But on a serious note, this course is one that will be the most challenging for me; but it’s also one that will teach me the most to help me reach my goals in the near future. I will be attending Kansas State University next year to get a minor in pre-nursing and leadership. There I expect the professors to assign many essay in which I will need to know how to academically write. I'm eager to learn how to do this and more in the next couple months.…
