I’m 100% convinced of it. If New York City is the epitome of diversity and globalization; NYU is the machine which creates these open minded students and sends them into the world. My convictions are built on the idea that globalization is the future. I’m a social justice activist at heart.
I always knew NYU was meant for me. After getting rejected as a first-time freshman, I did not get easily discouraged, instead, I devoted two amazing learning years to nursing prerequisites at Cypress College, viewing this setback as an opportunity for growth and improvement in all aspects of my life. As I wrap up my journey at community college to take the next step in my life, I ask myself, “How will I be able to make a difference in healthcare and make efforts to positively change my community?” As a first-generation college student who's been surrounded by Hispanics throughout my life, I know how stubborn and scared my community is to get the medical attention they need and deserve. Working as a bilingual nursing assistant, I have created
As I near my final semesters at NDSU and look towards graduate school I can’t help but try and summarize my time here. I have learned so much about my passion for design and the potential I have to do great things thanks to the education NDSU has provided me. In truth I have never really lived the “real college experience” because that is not what I want to remember when I look back at my collegiate experience. I don’t want to remember the parties I went to, I want to remember the late nights spent in studio chasing a design, the hours spent with my friends and peers working through architecture problems, and the connections I’ve made with faculty members in the architecture department who’ve become almost a second family. If I were to summarize
As I walked from Washington Square Park to Broadway, I’ve never felt so free. I have never actually felt as if I was accepted in a society like the diverse cultural atmosphere which lives and breathes NYU. Intellectually and socially, NYU offers exactly what I need. NYU prides itself on being very inviting and accepting of all gender norms, nationalities, and cultures. Coming from a Russian Background, I see the value of traveling and NYU gives me the extensive ability to study abroad while enriching myself with multiple perspectives.
I believe as a returning student to ISU, I had a unique experience in the class. I graduated with a degree in Child, Adult, and Family Services in May and decided that teaching was my true passion so I returned to Iowa State to begin earning that degree. I have worked for about four years for United Community Schools as a Lead Childcare Associate and as a Substitute Associate in both preschool and special education. Additionally, I have spent time as a Special Education Associate in Ankeny and have volunteered in Ames Community School District Classrooms. With my experience, I have spent a lot of time in schools and in classrooms.
New York University’s fervor to educate future leaders of tomorrow, its dedication to advance the frontiers of scientific research, and its commitment to create a diverse, thriving community–these philosophies are what inspire me to attend NYU. Climate change is one of the most severe problems our global community faces, and already, populations from around the world are vulnerable to issues of water sanitation, food shortages, and security risks. Through my experience leading Give Hope with Soap – a global service initiative providing clean water to the people of Malawi, Africa – I discovered nearly thirty-three percent of the world’s population lives without access to freshwater. Even worse, by 2025, two-thirds of the planet could suffer from freshwater shortages. With the drastic rise in these problems throughout the world, I believe producing ample, clean water will require innovative thinking and unique solutions.
I have always been involved beyond the classroom with the schools I attend. I attended King Kekaulike High School in Maui. My freshman year, I was an active member in Interact club, a local service club. I was also on the junior varsity volleyball team and the girls varsity soccer team. I was the team captain for the girls varsity soccer team at KKHS both my junior and senior year.
Why NYU? For me, the answer is simple. New York University is a school that not only offers exceptional academic programs but also a wonderfully unique student experience one of the most diverse cities in the US. In particular, I am enthralled by the MCC/GPH combined major because it has everything I could ever want in a major. It sets me up for the career I would like to have and even teaches me how to have an positive impact on the world.
Learning and Scholarship are critical values to all students, but throughout my time at ISU, I have gained a much deeper appreciation for the idea of being a lifelong learner. The programs for Special Education at ISU are some of the best and have offered me more ways to learn than I originally thought imaginable, and have inspired me to explore my educational possibilities in the future. Through my clinical experiences, coursework, and experiences outside of the classroom, I have gained a deeper appreciation for what it means to work in special education. I have decided that I will get a Masters in School Counseling and work as an academic advisor for special education students. Through this path, I will be able to continue learning more and
To some, the University of Chicago may seem like just another college with the iconic speech about how you can make a club to match your interests, or how great the food is. However, once you go beneath the surface it is impossible to underestimate the educational and intellectual benefits as well as the community and possibilities which stem from UChicago. I first learned about the University of Chicago at the beginning of my junior year when I inquired for a list of suitable schools from my principal. After researching the University of Chicago, it became my first choice, I even have a poster on my bedroom wall! I became excited about the opportunities the chemistry department offers as well as the idea of the Common Core, the joining of an intellectually motivated community and the ability to make a difference as many other UChicago alumni have.
Although I started studying economics at just 11th grade due to my school curriculum, I persevered by countless hours of studying, reading articles from "The Economist" and watching Economics-related videos to excel at my favorite subject. I want to one-up this by pursuing an economics based major at NYU.
My educational experience in psychology has motivated me to pursue a master’s degree at NYU in general psychology with a focus on forensic psychology. My objectives while at NYU would be: acquire clinical techniques in order to conduct psychological testing on inmates; gain proficient knowledge in the law and legal system; advance my analytical writing skills for mental health assessments; and understand the basic psychological factors that influence jury decision-making. Following completion of the master's program, my career ambitions are to work with incarcerated individuals and develop a technique to reach inmates whose mental health disorders go unheeded. The general master's program in psychology would be an ideal place for me to continue my studies because of the rare
NYU at New York city has always been a center for academic excellence. Its reputation transcends international borders and is redefining the way we perceive education. The campus is ideally located in the heart of the city around central park, where I can get to experience a diverse, metropolitan environment while never having to sacrifice the convenience of a modern campus. I plan on pursuing a major in computer science at The Tandon school of engineering and a minor in business administration at The Stern school of business, both of which are renowned for their research and academic rigor. The choice ultimately boils to down to what the student can make out of his college experience and I believe that NYU will provide me with a perfect balance
I chose NYU because of its outstanding engineering program. NYU is different than other schools. For example the events set up in The Tandon School of engineering are one of a kind and it's something i want to be apart of. These events are great for the growing world and milestones are going to be made, I want to be there when these milestones are made.
The heart of New York City is New York University. By joining the network of NYU, I will be able to study at an institution that has a long tradition of academic excellence among private universities in the United States. Additionally, I will be able to be part of an internationally recognized learning network with locations all across the globe. It would be a pleasure to study at a globally recognized university. A friend of mine who is a recent graduate from NYU College of Nursing has praised the program and conveyed to me a very positive experience.
