Why I Want to Attend Fiu ?
As I was growing up, my family always said that I would pursue a medical career. I’ve taken some CPR classes .But I came to realize that I really didn’t like messy part of the field
When I say messy I mean, the blood, open wounds, and other things that people consider to be disgusting. Even though the pay is great and benefits are good, I want to pursue a career that I want to do. As I got a little older, I found a new field of interest. I built a passion for Criminal Justice. Since I had plenty of time on my hands, I started to go the library and rented out all the books that had to do with criminal justice. I made it a hobby to read law books. I began to understand and like all the jobs and position involved with the Criminal Justice field. I presume Florida International University will offer me the best deal for my interest .Getting started in the college application process can be a daunting task. While the paperwork itself will require careful management, the creative energy that must be given to developing key messages and application themes and crafting them into compelling personal statements can be all consuming. The following are strategies for starting the process. First , Be purposeful in your searching , Work toward a short list ,Visit college campuses , Develop a resume ,Identify key messages you want to convey in your application ,Talk with teachers now about letters of recommendations and last but not least Investigate financial aid options . For two to four years the establishment will be 50,000 or more . I will be living on campus . By living at home I don 't think I will save money because the University is a hour drive from my house so Instead of driving there everyday I will be saving money while staying on campus . Yes my parent is okay with every decision I 've chosen . The minimum high school G.P.A requirement is 3.69-4.29 . SAT scores 1220-1390 and ACT 27-31 composite . I hope to pursue a career in criminal justice, specifically

    My reason for wanting to attend Webber International University is because of the it's marketing degree offered, the degree acceptance in my home country of Germany, and it's quiet location. I am working on receiving a bachelors degree in marketing and I have worked extremely hard so far. The reason I want to leave my current university is because the classes are to large, certain classes are difficult to sign up for because there are to many students and not enough professors, resources for academic success are limited by 2 hours a week, and life around campus is expensive and loud.…

    The reason I chose to attend a historically black college/university is simply because of the reputation historically black colleges and universities hold of being one big family. At other state or non HBCU schools you may find that students feel like they are just a number. I know people who generally love their non HBCU schools because of the various job opportunities, networking, etc. that they are exposed to while being there; but they complain about not having relationships with their professors and not feeling apart of the school as a person. At an HBCU you walk in knowing that you are moving into a home away from home. You know those kinds of neighborhoods you see on TV where the neighbors randomly bring you cakes and pies on move in day? That’s how I felt my freshman year moving to Johnson C. Smith University. I graduated high school searching for a sense of belonging and I knew I could get that at an HBCU. The personal concern we have for one another to succeed is a beautiful thing that you may not find any other place but at a historically black college. At HBCUs students seem to receive more support. I get help not only from my colleagues but also from my advisors, mentors, and professors. That’s all I really wanted. I had and still have the will to succeed and do what it takes to graduate and be successful but I needed that push. I needed to attend a school where people cared if I was there and cared when I wasn’t. I didn’t want to waste four years of my life feeling stressed, overwhelmed and alone. With me it wasn’t so much about the big parties and homecoming events the school could offer but simply whether or not I’d have people around me who were just as economically challenged, just as negatively judged by society, but also just as driven to succeed as I was; people who were willing to help me along the…

    Growing up Iranian American, I was greatly impacted by the opinions of my peers early on. Classmates would criticize my lunch or convey evident shock at the fact that I was Muslim, so I grew up feeling patronized for much of my early life. Eventually, I began surrounding myself with others who were also in my shoes, facing the discrimination that came along with being different. Over the years growing up surrounded in a fusion of cultures has made me appreciate the diversity that makes each culture so unique. Growing up traveling the world, learning multiple languages and being encouraged to accept all that cultures have to offer is something that is very beneficial in today’s global society and something that I will bring to SMU’s diverse campus. Should I be fortunate enough to attend SMU I will bring my open mind and worldly perspective to the learning environment and clubs on campus. Within the classroom I’d apply my background in my desire to study conflict within the Middle East and ways to resolve that.…

    The college that I decided to research is called Florida International University or FIU for short. I feel like this college is appropriate for me because many of the amenities available fit my liking. The school has a very large campus and plenty of students to make new friends with, and is located in the heart of Florida. Florida’s weather is similar to Arizona’s, with the exception of humidity, making it feel just like home. There are many extracurricular activities at this college such as sororities and fraternities, a radio station, student council, and much more to keep me busy outside of my studies. This college also has a minimum GPA of 3.4 or greater, allowing me to be surrounded by students who value their education just as much as I do. I think FIU would be a great college for me to consider applying to because it has much of what I look for including size, location, academic and extracurricular programs.…
