Family Admission Essays Samples For Students

I am currently serving my country in the Horn of Africa. In 2007, I graduated from Langham Creek High School. Unfortunately, I graduated at the bottom of my class because I never took school seriously and was not planning to go to college. It took several years for me to realize that I was, actually, wrong. I started to work full time early in my life, since my parents have left my brothers and me soon after I graduated. My only aim during that time was to work 40-plus hours a week to put a better roof over our Continue reading...

The nursing curriculum can be extremely demanding, but the passion triumphs over the challenge. I aspired to become a pediatrician when I was younger, but I ended up studying chemistry at Belorussian State University and consequently became a chemistry teacher. I loved my teaching job, nonetheless. My biggest reward as a teacher was being my son’s chemistry teacher, and infusing in him a love of chemistry. My son is very enthusiastic and supportive of my endeavors to become a nurse. I believe I was an effective and knowledgeable teacher, and can as well make a compassionate and responsible Continue reading...

I am passionate about business. I’ve been passionate about business ever since I was a child watching my father run the family real estate business. I started working as soon as I was old enough. To be sure, I got my first job at the age of 14 working in door-to-door sales. Before I went on to college, I worked for a time in telesales, then on a kiwi farm and finally in customer service. The unifying theme to my early work was that they all focused on some aspect of doing business.
My passion for business did Continue reading...

If I would define my life, I would say that it is synonymous to mountain climbing. The climb to get where I am today was not easy. I had to overcome not only landslides but also meltdown that took a toll on me. It was filled with hardship but at the same time it is nothing short of fulfilment. When my dad of cancer when I was just seven years old, my family’s life drastically changed. It was a difficult chapter of our lives because we just lost our pillar of support. However, I saw my family’s Continue reading...

My decision to seek specialization in a clinical counseling program stems primarily from my belief in the healing power of talk therapy as a means of facilitating positive outcomes among people experiencing a wide range of emotional and mental difficulties. The role of a licensed counselor is to act as an aide, sounding board and healthcare provider for their patient, providing a much-needed support system and offering the kind of help that will bring about greater peace of mind and mental health. Obtaining a license in Family and Marriage Counseling fits in well with my particular priorities in the Continue reading...

Childhood fascination with notebooks turned me into their collector. Notebooks, with reams of pale unexplored paper bound together by two hard covers, represent a boundless heap of possibilities. I would flick through the blank pages, my fingers slivering along their crisp edges, as I sprawl over the carpet of my bedroom. I start to imagine all the doodles and secrets I would soon scrawl onto its bare surfaces. I adore the latitude notebooks afford and spent many hours with unfettered imagination to be ingenious and creative. These notebooks excite me the same way a blank canvas provokes an artist Continue reading...

People always divide youth by the age groups: if you are 5 years old – you are a kid, 14 - teenager, 18 – adult. In my opinion, it is wrong. Some people grow up really fast and can take serious decisions at the age of 12, while the others stay teenagers until they are 40 years old. As many people on the planet, as many cases exist. Everything is very individual. And I am not an exception. I think it takes us long enough to gain the experience in life, but it takes us a moment to grow up. People Continue reading...

I will remember that moment always. I had just come home from a really enjoyable sports practice session, feeling good about life in general and looking forward to the rest of the weekend. I knew something was wrong when my Mom said we needed to talk, just by the expression on her face. She was all red around her eyes; I could see she’d been crying. My heart sank, and my buoyant mood was shattered.
Then she told me that her and my Dad had decided to separate and would probably divorce. I realized in that moment that Continue reading...

How your interest in the subject develop? Describe any experience you had in the field.

“Hey, kid; pack your things up, and we’ll go on a business trip.” That is the voice of my dad who usually brings me along with him to business trips. That is how I developed my great interest in business as a kid. The elders were amazed to see my inclination in this field that was not common to other children of my age. As a young boy, I valued money too much because I have seen how my parents worked hard to earn a living.
Today, I aspire to major in business administration at The Paul Merage Continue reading...

There are personal and professional experiences that hone one’s character. I have encountered various challenges which strengthened one’s skills and advanced knowledge about life. A professional experience that contributed to the person that I have become is waiting on tables at an upscale restaurant in my hometown. The basic responsibilities were not easy. I have to juggle between serving the clients in the most efficient and accurate manner, while attending to mundane activities. I never thought that there should be keen attentiveness on endeavors such as dropping a check at one table, pouring more coffee at another, Continue reading...

The modern world obliges a person to catch up with its main trends, therefore, many things that I have already experienced went unnoticed and taken for granted. Only now, making an important decision to transfer to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I am paying tribute to my previous experience to understand its role in pursuing the dream of becoming a professional accountant. Since early childhood I learned a simple thing – every challenge only makes you stronger. I was born and grew up in a big Chinese city with an extremely tense rhythm of life. My parents got divorced when I Continue reading...

The field of osteopathic medicine deeply resonates with me due to its approach of treating humans individually and making a bond between the caregiver and the patient. This kind of the professional relationship ensures a personalized rapport, at all levels. The medical practice of DOs defines a holistic approach on the human body, which includes accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, among others.
As a DO, I will embrace practicing the art of healing through a unique approach towards all patients. The best osteopathic physicians, however, heavily rely on the connection between the whole human body to diagnose and treat Continue reading...

Born in Peru, I came to USA in 2003. I had just completed my third grade secondary; equivalent to 9th grade high school in USA. As enthusiastic as I was, I was leaving behind that epoch of illusions, shyness, brotherhood, alternative rock and passive life forever.
My journey to Miami best describes my life in America; like an emotional roller coaster ride. I was travelling with my aunt Isabel, who I barely knew. The flight was delayed by 2 hours. There was a storm in Miami. Our plane jolted every now and then. Continue reading...

Nursing is a lifelong commitment to caring for ill and incapacitated, responsibility, and learning. A good nurse must be able to care for patients in an empathetic manner, while at the same time maintaining an appropriate distance in order to conserve the qualities necessary for the suitable care of the next patient. A nurse must be dedicated to their profession, and exhibit great stamina in order to endure long and demanding hours. Additionally, exemplary communication skills are necessary in order to effectively report on the patient’s condition to other members of the healthcare providing team, and to connect Continue reading...

He was pale, sweating, and in tremendous pain. My dad was lying on his bed crying out my name and holding his chest. My heart was pounding, my thoughts were racing, and my knees were shaking as I ran into his room. I was 18 and terrified as I stood in front of my dad who I had no idea how to help. I called 911 and called relatives in the area to let them know what was going on. My father had a heart attack and there was nothing I could do to help him. Once we reached Continue reading...

Abstract

Genocide must be stopped everywhere in the world and Cameroon is a good place to start. Genocidal criminal activities can cause death as well as physical and mental injuries. Forcing children to move out of their home, an attempt to commit genocide, conspiring and/or incitement to commit genocide and complicity in genocide are all covered under the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide. Cameroon has experienced genocide and attacks by the Central African Republic are one example. The international community needs to intervene to stop the genocide and to organize legitimate elections. In order to promote Continue reading...

Personal Essay

Since I was a little boy, I have been obsessed with different sorts of equipment. As much as I remember my childhood, I have never really played with toys that most kids play with. Since the age of 5, I was overwhelmed with exploring technical design of phones, watches, and computers - disassembling them and assembling them back. When I grew up, I was just an ordinary kid, who did not like to stand out. However, I was not very passionate about studying or doing my regular school work, except for a technology class, during which I had full Continue reading...

Admission Essay: MA in International Education

As a person who is already deeply and actively involved in many aspects of education, I believe that this program is a perfect fit for me, particularly as I will be entering the program with that existing wealth of experience. Additionally, I believe that I am fortunate in having a special insight, being a first generation Chinese-American college student. For example, I am able to relate to the specific needs of immigrant students coming to be educated in the United States, such as having to adjust to the culture and to acquire better English language skills in an accelerated Continue reading...

As a transfer applicant to The University of Texas at Austin, I am a freshman, who is currently applying for a sophomore transfer. Apart from my studies and student life at the college, I am fond of math and everything that has to do with with numbers and calculations and, at this level, am aware that I want to relate my profession exclusively to accounting.

According to the Bureau of Statistics, 16- to 19-year-old teenager employment, has fallen in the country, Continue reading...

“Five minutes,” my Dad reminded, peering into my room. I quickly glanced at the clock on the nightstandit showed 6:25 a.m. Five minutes later grabbing my backpack, school uniform tie, and blue blazer I rushed down the stairs to the waiting car. Four years ago, this remained the five-year morning routine. Back then, along with my two brothers, I attended a private school located three towns over. On a good day, after picking up the two kids carpooling from their homes located the opposite direction from our route, Dad would deliver us in almost fifty minutes at the school.

My Self
Having been born in Saudi Arabia, I have very close ties with my home culture, and to that end I wanted to work as much as I could at home, while also learning about English and the West. To that end, I chose to dedicate myself to a challenging field that would enable me to conduct a great deal of international business, such as chemical engineering.
I majored in English at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah City, graduating in 2008/2009 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemical Engineering; while my GPA was at 2.33, this was due Continue reading...

Nursing can be a seriously demanding job. It can be demanding in terms of time, physical effort, and most importantly mental and intellectual effort. Nursing is not just a profession but also an outlet for passion . At first, I thought that nursing was just a profession in the healthcare industry that involves assisting doctors and other medical professionals in doing their job, which most of the time leads down to taking care of the patients and addressing their medical needs. It was not long until I realized that that perception was not only ambiguous but also sort of distorted Continue reading...

Human trafficking is a social issue that threatens the safety of children and adults alike, exploited for attaining the interests of organized crime groups. Such exploitation affects the victims’ further development and negatively impacts their wellbeing and self-esteem. This issue is significant to social work practitioners, responsibly committed to reduce poverty throughout the world, to empower vulnerable groups, to sustain the gender equality, to erase the gender-based oppression and to promote equitable and equal access to education (Haoughton & Khandker 176). Hence, human trafficking severely abuses human rights and social workers fight for reinstating them. Human trafficking is an increasing Continue reading...

I strongly believe that the world you come from can shape your dreams and aspiration. I was born and raised in a very conformist country. That is the place where I learnt that in order to reach anything in my life I should first get appropriate education – education is very important in my country and I decided to do whatever it takes to get the best education possible. Although universities in my country offer very profound and quality education, I want to go further than that and beside education broaden my outlook as well – the USA is a perfect Continue reading...

Master of Public Health

Admission Essay
I have recognized early in life that individuals respond and react differently to challenges, depending on the person’s values and beliefs; as well as personal aspirations and goals in life. I had been destined to be one of those individuals who had to contend with life’s difficulties, particularly the need to support one’s family and loved ones as early as 11 years of age. When most of the children at that age are still being holistically supported by parents, I was already forced to work to support my family. As such, when I was Continue reading...

When I think about why I would like to attend NYU, I consider the myriad improvements I’ve made to my own character throughout the years, as well as the highly specific goals I have set for myself in the future. 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.

Personal Statement

My decision to pursue a career in medicine stems from an early age, when I used to dream of working in science and medicine and even now – all these years later – I still cannot imagine doing anything other than having a career in those fields.
I believe the event that solidified my ambition happened when I was quite young. My sister (three years my junior) was born with coarctation of the aorta; she had correction surgery when she was just two weeks old. I don’t remember it myself, but my parents tell me she would not have survived Continue reading...

I have always wanted to work closely with children in an intellectually stimulating environment, and, in my opinion, a career of a middle school educator is the best way to achieve this. Being an educator in a middle school, one has a great chance to teach and to gain some knowledge simultaneously, as middle school children are the best ones to learn from. They have so much enthusiasm and passion for life, something that grown ups have already forgotten about.
I realize that being a teacher in a middle school might be quite a challenge, however I am ready Continue reading...

Ever since I was young I based my interests in business and their way of operation. I always got fascinated by different languages and their cultural differences as well as well as their interaction to develop business relationships. Born in Southern Korea and brought up in Canada I always told myself that when I start my university program I have to pursue a foreign language which would in future enhance my involvement in international business. I believe that combining my degree with this aspect was a correct choice for me since entering University of Oregon. I am a senior Continue reading...

I strongly believe that the world you come from can shape your dreams and aspiration. I was born and raised in a very conformist country in the Middle East – Kuwait. That is the place where I learnt that in order to reach anything in my life I should first get appropriate education – education is very important in my country and I decided to do whatever it takes to get the best education possible. Although Kuwaiti universities offer very profound and quality education, I want to go further than that and beside education broaden my outlook as well – the USA Continue reading...

Question One

It is really hard to select one outstanding attribute about oneself to speak about but when I look at most of the things I have done in my life one trait appears to cut across all my actions; pragmatism. I am logical to a fault, approaching all problems in a sensible, practical manner. In a sense this may be interpreted to mean that I am not an overly optimistic person. Far from it, I believe a little good luck goes a long way in helping us achieve our goals. Although I only realized it when I was older, my Continue reading...

Academic Readiness

An emotional challenge presented itself when my father was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and had major surgery. This happened ten years after my parents divorced; yet, it felt like a heavy burden since we were a “close knit” family. During this time, there were temporary bouts of anxiety since this was the biggest challenge I faced. Nonetheless, coping with father’s health situation did not present a learning obstacle or hinder my academic performance. I focused on studies and finished Saline High School with a 3.0 GPA and scored 21 on the ACT. I also managed to earn “most Continue reading...

There are many facets to health care in the modern era. Keeping people healthy requires the collaboration of many specialists and dedicated support personnel. Traditionally we think of doctors and dentists, nurses and physiotherapists. However, with the growing need to provide affordable care, previously ancillary professions such as physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and dental hygienists are acquiring increased responsibilities for patient care. It is increasingly recognized that the mouth, teeth, and oral hygiene act as a critical barometer to general patient health. The practice of dental hygiene is important and will only grow in importance as solutions are sought Continue reading...

I was raised in a large family made up of many healthcare professionals. I’ve dreamed of becoming a family practitioner since I was young a child. Unfortunately, I witnessed my grandfather dying from small cell lung cancer most likely related to his 60-year smoking habit. My aunt suffered from repeated infections that were barely cured by any of the medications prescribed to her due to her type II diabetes. All this anguish, and struggle with disease didn’t fade with time, but were rather deeply etched into my heart and psyche, and reinforced my desire to pursue family Continue reading...

Todays world is fraught with difficulties. Turning on the nightly news, it seems that disasters occur on a regular basis. Families are constantly tested by circumstances that appear to be beyond individual control. Most vulnerable amongst people facing disasters, family difficulties, or other challenges are children. Children do not have the life experience that is required to make sense and come to terms with difficult situations that arise from time to time in every person’s life. Counselors provide a line of support for individuals and help them overcome their challenges.
Counselors that work with children bare a special Continue reading...

I have worked hard to get to where I am today; in my 45 years of life, I have seen and done many things that I am very proud of. The most important lesson I have learned is that education is an ongoing process; it never stops, no matter how much life you have lived. Education is something that you can never get enough of, and picking up new skill sets and ways of thinking is something that I am immensely interested in. It is for that reason that I am applying to Lynn University to receive a degree Continue reading...

Dear (Put entity or specific recipient here),

Zig Ziglar once said “Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful.” I have learned recently the truth of this quotation. Life is our greatest teacher and recently I’ve learned that difficulties I did not ask for and challenges I had not been prepared for can suddenly appear and cause you to suddenly shift priorities in order to deal with pressing emergencies.
The last year of mine has been both the most difficult year of my life, but also the most illuminating. I dealt Continue reading...
