FIU Personal Statement

993 Words4 Pages

When I complete High school I want to go to either Florida International University or Miami Dade College for my first 2 years and then Florida International University for the rest of it. My first option would be going straight to FIU which is a state college. FIU has a fairly large amount of people in it, in 2012 around 50 thousand people enrolled into FIU. Florida International is an average ranked college, it has a 55% pass rate for people doing 6-year graduation plans. Their average retention rate is 83% meaning that a majority of their first year students don’t drop out. I choose this school because of its distance to my family, I would still be close enough that if I needed to get to my family I could.

Going to MDC for my first two years would save me lots of money on my first two years of college. For rooming I would stay at my cousin’s house who lives very close to each campus. I would pay for each month that I lived there until I could move into an apartment. I would do this the same for both choices of where I would go to college, because the difference is only 10 miles from each college/university. For transportation I would use my jeep grand cherokee, Its good for short trips to and from my cousin's house to the university. I could get home and to anywhere else I would need to go with it. That would go for both options, there would be no need for plane trips or buses because I have a car and wont be traveling
