Working in the construction industry has been something that I have enjoyed doing for the last five years. What I enjoyed the most about construction is that every day brings something new. As each construction site is different with its own set of new challenges. I first started working in the field as an apprentice latching on to anybody that would teach me. After a while I had moved up to full time estimator and assisted in project management. I enjoyed what I was doing and becoming a civil engineer was the next step in my evolving career. By transferring to California Baptist University (CBU) I will receive a quality education that will prepare me with the tools required to be a successful civil engineer. The Jesus Christ centered education that I will receive by attending CBU will help in my mental and spiritual development for the rest of my life. Built on strong spiritual foundation CBU is the right fit for me academically on the road to becoming a civil engineer. …show more content…

Transferring to CBU will offer me the opportunity to return to a semester system which is better suited for me academically. CBU also offers the convenience of a short commute to campus from home.

After listening to the wisdom of Husky, one can recognize that he offers valuable insights, but also provides some inaccurate information regarding academic affairs in community college. Beginning with the valuable information, he is correct when he states that the cost of community college, in both tuition and price-per-credit, is significantly lower than a four-year institution. He is also partly correct about the curriculum. For students enrolled with the intention of transferring to a four-year institution, general education courses in the liberal arts are offered that will transfer to their desired school. He explains that these liberal arts courses are generally smaller than those offered at larger schools, and provide for more interaction with the instructor – both claims are true.

Because of the amount of experience and knowledge that I have gained throughout the course of being a member of Blinn TEAM, I think that it is fair to say that I am a seasoned and worth-while contestant to transfer into Texas A&M. Being on Blinn TEAM has taught me a different level of time management, prioritization, and dedication that I believe fully enrolled Texas A&M or Blinn students do not have the opportunity to experience. Not only am I a Blinn TEAM student- I am a member of the Corps of Cadets, a New Student Conference Orientation Leader, and a student worker. I have ingrained myself to Texas A&M not only academically, but by plunging myself into the culture and tradition.

When asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my first ambition was to become an astronaut. The idea as lofty as the stars themselves was shot down by reality, and so I set my sights on the next best thing.

California Baptist University (CBU) offers me the chance to study towards this whilst playing soccer at the peak of collegiate athletics in a new country.

There are many colleges and universities that fit the career choice I plan to achieve as i get older, but Oakland Community College is the best fit for me. One of the reasons why OCC is the best college for me is because of all the advantages that apply in terms of the campus itself. Another reason that I chose this college is because of how the classes are size wise, when the classes are, and also because you can attend classes at any of the five campuses when you apply at one campus. The last and main reason this is the college for me is because it is financially fitting to me due to its affordability, while also getting me the same learning, and education I can get at any university. It also leaves the doors open to transition to a university
