Importance of Education
As a little girl my mother had always told me that education was very important. She’d always emphasize that she wanted me to be the first one in my family to go to college right out of high school. Of course, I didn’t really understand or care because I was so young. Now that I am in high school I take into my mothers words and realize that college is important. But now the question is, “What college do I want to attend?” I have taken into consideration many other colleges. I believe that the University of Oklahoma is the best college for me. OU can offer me a wonderful education, a path to success, and a chance to major in Interior Design.
One reason why I believe the University of Oklahoma is the school for me concerns the significance of my education. I have always heard that OU was a great school but in all honesty I didn’t really know why. I began to do some research on this university and found out that it is ranked 101 nationwide out of over 1,600 schools. I have always known that there are over 40 sororities in this school. This university also has over 300 student clubs and organizations. In all case, what isn’t there to do in OU?
Not only will I get an education but I will also get a path to success. The faculty and staffs of OU is loyal and trustworthy. I know that they will lead me to the positive direction to success for a better future. Because I want to major in Interior Design, I know I have to be creative and diverse. The Interior Design department will offer me a chance to work with architects and a diverse faculty. While doing some research I had found out that the professors at the university have their own unique perspective on design that reflects on the agendas and the classroom. The department has computers with the latest interior design software which will help me have the knowledge founded in the workplace. With all of this, I know that I will have the opportunity to have a path to success. The Interior Design department has many

    For my post-secondary schooling, I have been accepted into, and planning to attend, Georgia Southern University. I chose this school for many different reasons, and going to orientation expanded those reasons. Georgia Southern offers many great opportunities for what I want to do in life. The campus is about an hour away from where I currently live, so it is close to home but not too close to home. The professors and staff are friendly and want to see the students succeed and are always ready to help. I could go on and on about why I chose this school, but I believe…

    Students moving into a new environment without their parents either results in an exciting new experience or make the students extremely terrified, which results in them feeling homesick. It is crucial and important for students to pick a university that makes them feel secure and meets their standards. Besides the fact that a school can make the students feel safe, the school with the best reputation and the best overall experience while touring the campus will likely lead to the student’s best interest. When Arizona State University and Northern Arizona University are both compared and contrasted, it becomes obvious that Northern Arizona University is the best out of the two options for students looking to attend a university in Arizona.…

    College is one of the biggest times in someone’s life! College is the time for deciding how someone’s life path is going to go and what the future will hold. Even though college is know as a time to party, it is also a time to crack down, become focused, and become serious about finding a career choice that will make a person happy, or at least pay the bills. Picking the best college for someone requires many criteria which includes: major choice, closeness to home, closeness to other buildings, and other important factors.

    My first few weeks of classes at UW-Platteville have surprisingly been fun and brought many opportunities of clubs I did not think I would join. When I imagined going to college for the first time, I thought I would cry and be homesick. To not be homesick I told myself to be involved with the Welcome Weekend activities and it worked! My classes were intimidating on the first day, but now that we have had many classes I am comfortable. I am using my time management skills everyday because I have many meetings to attend. Overall, I am glad I choose to continue my education at UW-Platteville because it feels like home.…

    Maybe you don't know what you want from life, but we all know we want to be successful. As I oscillated between a few high schools I knew I wanted to leave a mark on the world, because being known is amazing. I know how to get it, I know what I have to do to get it, and I know where I needed to be to get it. I decided to attend BCTHS after my amble tour through the building. At that point I believed it would make me successful, and I knew I could endure this challenge on my own. I knew that there will be competition, but I also knew that I will still be successful. Success to me means going to a great college, and one day be well known for the creativity in my art and photography. I wanted to start ahead of the competition, and I knew I couldn't do this unless I attend BCTHS, especially when my two favorite career classes are dovetailed as one.…

Of course, in order to have such a great community, students must have a positive impact on the college, which is what I intend to do if I am given the chance to be a part of it.…
