Personal Statement

My interest is in college. I want to go to college, but more specifically Stanford University. Stanford University has always appealed to me. Ever since I first discovered about the school it sparked interest to me. The reputation of the school is magnificent and the graduation rate is in the 90s (percent wise). It is nearby to where I live and tuition isn't the worst. This is a college I am deeply fascinated in. There is many colleges and universities all around the United States. It’s great to have an idea of a couple colleges you might want to go to. Except in my case, I only have one in mind that I want to go to. In order to find out more about colleges, I did some research. First thing I did was simply ask my brother’s friends about colleges. My brother and his friends are at the age where they decide what college they want to go to. I got a variety of answers, but most popular being DeVry University. My brother’s friend goes there and his sister works there. They helped me think of a career I want to pursue, although where I currently stand I’m not fully sure. They told me that it’s a college for about almost anything. After deep consideration, I decided that DeVry can be an alternative, which helped answer a question of mine. However, I stilled decided upon Stanford.

I always heard Aisha talking about

The questions were essentially asking how I would cope with not being accepted to my dream school. These questions really got me thinking because while I have an alternative, I would much rather prefer going to Stanford than to DeVry. After long thought I came to a rather simple conclusion. My conclusion is I won’t have to endure the pain of being denied if I don’t get put in the place where I’m not accepted. Of course I’m not certain that all will go swell. My dream is to go there but no one knows what to future holds for us. I just hope everything stays stable and doesn’t go
