College Personal Statements Samples For Students

Personal Statement

My intended major at The University of California, Berkeley is Berkeley's architecture studies. I wish to be admitted at the college as a transfer student next fall 2013. I am currently attending a city college where I am pursuing a course that is not related to architecture. Even though the college does not offer any architecture course, my interest in architecture can be backdated to high school. I developed an interest in designing and creating models especially in perspective and landscape. I must admit that by this time I had not picked on a profession that I wanted t pursue. I later heard ...

Becoming an attorney was never a professional path that I considered as a young girl growing up in Armenia. I spent the first 17 years of my life in a beautiful and ethereal Eurasian country that has the distinction of possessing a rich and diverse cultural history that predates to ancient times. In 2010, my family and I made the difficult transition of immigrating to the United States (U.S.). Suddenly, I was an Armenian teenager living in the fast-paced and cosmopolitan New York City, quite ...

My Personal Statement to Take Up BS in Accountancy
I was born in a traditional Chinese family. Likewise, I attended a very traditional Chinese school. The lesson that my family and school taught me is that “practice makes perfect.” The only way I can improve my grades is to listen to lectures carefully and do more practices after class. The idea helped me to progress in my studies and I felt mostly interested in the accounting and economics disciplines. Afterwards, when I saw a website about the benefits of studying in an American Community College for students who do ...

People would always say that failure is an integral part of life because, well, it’s inevitable. However, despite the reminders and reality, I was afraid of failing. I tried to avoid as much as I can to the point that I even dropped out of college. I saw it as my escape from ending up with the thing I was afraid the most. It was not an easy experience because I experienced many emotional roller coasters that took a toll on me. But what I was proud of accomplishing is that I was able to conquer my fear of ...

Test Predictors of Success in Academia:

“Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.”
Alexander Graham Bell
After returning to college at age 43, I felt disappointed to discover that I missed obtaining an ACT score by only one point: 24 vs 25. However, having maintained a GPA of 3.8 clearly demonstrates that this small gap is not an accurate predictor for successfully completing academic requirements and earning a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Accountancy at W.P. Carey School of Business. Another indication of my academic success is membership in Phi Theta Kappa, an honor society.
Even though I have 20 years ...

Personal Statement

A mentor of mine told me that dreams are not achieved by simply working hard—working smart is one of the keys to success. If this is true, then turning my passion into something lucrative definitely sounds like a smart thing to do. That is precisely why I intend to combine my love for computer science and programming with a full-fledged business.
When I was younger, my parents brought me a desktop computer that fascinated me to no end. My uncle was a computer engineer; he motivated me to learn how to use it. Thus, I taught myself strong computer operating skills and ...

Self-actualization is the process of realizing one's full potential - to really work hard and find out what you are capable of. Understanding the mind has been a particular passion of mine for a very long time - ever since my teenage years, I have struggled with my endless curiosity about why people do the things they do. Furthermore, I have always wanted to learn more about what people can do to better themselves. Realizing that I want to help people with their own emotional and life-related problems was a huge moment for me, and one that has brought me to ...

Life knowledge and its application are acquired – in each and every respect – via a form of education. That has always been the case. A quotation attributed to the Chinese philosopher Confucius (551-479 BC) advised: “If your plan is for one year plant rice. If your plan is for ten years plant trees. If your plan is for one hundred years educate children.” That philosophy, emphasizing the tremendous importance of education in planning for our longer term future, is every bit as true today as it was over two thousand years ago – probably more so in this ...

Admission Essay

Since childhood, I have always demonstrated that I am innately motivated to help people. However, I must admit that, for several years, I never had a serious thought about the career that best suited me. In 1994, I graduated with an associate’s degree in Environmental Science from Central Florida Community College. I spent many years trying to get a satisfying placement with the associate’s degree. I later opted to pursue a career in Organizational management leading to my enrolment at Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, FL for an Organizational Management degree course. I graduated from the Edward Waters College in 2005. ...

Throughout my life I have faced many challenges that took determination, perseverance, and discipline in order to overcome. During high school and throughout my undergraduate studies I dedicated myself to the ferocious sports of Kick Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts. Despite my successes that were built on hard work and devotion to self-restraint, unfortunately I suffered a traumatic injury to my knee and in the process shattered my patella, ruptured both the anterior cruciate and the medial collateral ligaments, and tore the cartilage of the meniscus. The recovery from this injury was brutal and I had to undergo four surgeries ...

I am a second-generation Cuban American and the first generation in my immediate family to attend and graduate from college as well as to pursue studies in Law School. I received my Bachelors degree in Marketing from the University of Florida with a minor in Mass Communications. In college I was a member of the Pre-legal Honor Society and held the position of advertising chair.

Whilst my degree was in marketing, law has always been a powerful interest of mine. The specific areas of law that interest me as of now are trial advocacy and litigation, I have witnessed many court proceedings, ...

Why I Want to Pursue a Career in Medicine, Why I Will Be an Asset to the College, and Further Information Including My Previous Accomplishments

I come from a family of doctors, so perhaps considering a career in medicine is a logical step for me. Having been raised in that family environment, I naturally became interested in medical matters. Looking back, I think that from an early age I dreamed of becoming a physician, although I have to admit that my interest intensified when my beloved Grandma was diagnosed with cancer and then underwent several surgical procedures as a consequence during the last 12 months. Thankfully she is now apparently free of the cancer. We all tend to take our everyday amenities and facilities for granted; it is only ...

Spirit, enthusiasm, individualism seem to rule the day in terms of qualities of today's youth, but the real diligence lies--as it always has--in one's work ethic. Before integrity became a buzz word among those seeking approval from their superiors, a man or woman's ability to stick to the job and his or her follow-through have long ruled the day. Not everyone can talk the talk of work ethic--not unless he or she has been through the long, difficult journey that develops the ethic itself. For any talent bestowed upon me, through any contribution I may have made or will make, my ...

I am NAME SURNAME from PRESENT CITY, PRESENT COUNTRY. My intended major for NAME OF PROGRAM in NAME OF COLLEGE will be mathematics.
I have always been motivated to good education as I belong to a well- educated family. During my study in high school I was more interested in pure science i.e. math, physics, and chemistry. But my favorite subject in schools days was mathematics and I used to like to solve complex and challenging problems in mathematics and puzzles. Inclination to this subject was originated when I was kid and I used to be guided by my ...

I have grown up knowing that the world deserves intellectuals, individuals with the capacity to right the wrongs of society. Also, Elbert Hubbard once said, “There is no failure except in no longer trying”, (Hubbard). Having had the privilege of studying in three different countries, and at some point being home-schooled until age of 14, I feel like I have had tremendous experience as a traveler. My academic traveling was further heightened when I went to England as Exchange student for one year. During this period, I was living in a boarding house. It was an awesome experience to meet people ...

The foundation for my zeal to study in business related courses grew up after my graduation from Bodwell High School in December 2011. This was after learning that entrepreneurship and innovation are the key elements in driving an economy and building ones future (Wolf 2009, pp.34). I learnt that business is the core foundation of growth and that the government is in the forefront in pushing for studying business. The course has a ready market in terms of employment and sole proprietorship.
For four years, since grade 10, I have been studying in Canada. My stay in Canada has ...

1. Please explain your interest in sending your son/daughter to Greenhill School.
Generally, Joyce is doing very well in the current school. However, I feel the overall environment in public school does not motivate kids to compete. I think we need to prepare kids to be more competitive in this global economy. I think a prestige school like Greenhill School can provide more challenges to her academically. I feel that Greenhill will give my daughter opportunities that would not have been available of receiving if he had attended a public school. Because I understand that private schools like Greenhill School ...

Personal Statement

I have always been fascinated with the admiration of studying business since my childhood. As I look back into my life, it has been immensely stimulating, driven to business with many challenges and opportunities that my parents faced. Since I was young I would see my parents working hard in the field of business so as to provide for me and my other siblings. These experiences in real life have incredibly influenced my life including the choices I make, my thoughts, and goals that I intend to achieve. Perhaps, the most tremendous experience that has made me choose business ...

Childhood memories, interests and impressions have long proved to have a great impact on one’s further development. When I was a little kid, I used to be fond of building Lagos, solving puzzles and doing any art that involved craftsmanship. My father used to travel on his work errands quite a lot, so he often brought me different curious puzzles for me. I was also keen on exploring the inside mechanisms of various objects around me. For example, one time I was so curious to see what was inside my cousin’s teddy bear, that I could not help but tore ...

When people think of China, I think they often think of places like Beijing and Shanghai, these sprawling metropolitan places packed tight with millions and millions of people. Or maybe they think of the cold, gray country that exists to the west. My birth city, Guilin, is nothing like these places. I come from the southern part of China, from the Guangxi province, where everything is warm, green, and beautiful. I was lucky to be born in Guilin. My family was lucky also, and were quite prosperous in the years before I was born. Still, I was the first ...

After a hard day of work, every person longs for peace and quiet, for the sound of closing the door from the inside and becoming one with the peaceful refuge that is called home. However, not all homes provide the same amount of this soothing emotion, so essential to human happiness. Some homes lack color, vibrancy, emotions, life, that delightfully cozy essence. This is the reason why I decided to become an interior designer, to be able to help people make their home a true place of refuge and contentment, where their field of vision would rest on soothing images that ...

Academic challenges must be met with an open mind while remaining grounded in intense discipline and focus. Three and a half years ago I came to the United States hardly speaking any English. I enrolled in my local high school in New York City where I was exposed to many people of diverse backgrounds. Initially, school was very difficult. The difficulty of making friends in a new language is only exceeded by the struggle to learn chemistry in a new tongue. Despite this handicap, through dedication and perseverance I managed to learn a new language and prepare myself for future academic success.

I was born in a small city of CITY which is located in a province of PROVINCE in China. I spent my childhood there being a happy and careless child until the age of 9. Around this time, the factory my father was working at was closed and all the agreements with employees were terminated. With each day it became harder for my dad to feed our family of NUMBER people. We were forced to move all over the region due to my dad’s work. I could not stand looking how my parents were working 60 hours per week in order ...

When I was still in kindergarten, my mom decided that it would be best for me to skip the last year; therefore I entered primary school earlier than my friends did. I have always been the youngest kid among my classmates. I used to be very lazy, I hated studying and I would cry every time my parents asked me to study. It was quite a shock to jump to primary school from kindergarten.
I had a tutor that would work with me in order to improve my learning skills, till the time I entered high school. Since then time, ...

My interest in Urban Studies started through a combination of experiences as a child and working adult. I grew up in South Korea in a Christian family and followed commandments from the Bible that were mentioned throughout my childhood. However, in the 11th grade my English teacher, Ms. Case, had Kohlberg’s Six Stages of Moral Reasoning posted on the board and I read it every class session. It gave me a different non-religious prospective regarding right and wrong behavior. At that time, I was at Stage Four: “Maintaining the Social Order”; but knew that I wanted to move to Level 3, Stage ...

My Early Life

I am originally from the UAE (United Arab Emirates). When I was a child, my parents decided to migrate to Canada. We lived there for over 10 years. We eventually left our house in Canada after my parents decided to go back to the UAE once again, for good perhaps. I have lived in two countries so far. The native language in UAE is Arabic while the ones in Canada are English and French. Through my years of stay in UAE and Canada, I have learned how to understand and fluently speak their respective native languages—now that is a total ...

Prior to applying to become a doctoral student in pharmacy, I began to do some extra reading on the subject to determine the types of careers and models of practice that are available, and how they fit with my own goals and experience. I have done volunteer work in a hospital setting and found that I very much enjoyed working as part of a team in a community or general hospital. I think I would like to be employed such a setting, following a patient-centered type of pharmaceutical practice and assisting patients with finding the most effective medications for their conditions. I have a real passion ...

Since my childhood, I have always been curious about how things work and loved to create the new ones or make them work better. My father was a computer engineer in The Air Force, and I used to watch him working all the time. One of my most vivid childhood memories is when my father took me to his workplace. It was a massive data center of the Air Force, and I was so absorbed in watching giant supercomputers that I left the tour and got lost.

I have always considered that the person who invented society was probably the greatest genius ever living on earth. Social norms, human relationships, communication, collaboration, progress, society, they are all part of a political system. Excepting the abstract concepts such as love, happiness or virtue, everything in the world, locally or globally, at micro level, or at macro level, is political. The dynamics and particularities of the international political scene fascinate me. It is with great interest that I follow the socio-political concepts integrated in the speeches or strategies of politicians or in the pleads and defenses of the lawyers. ...
