For many students who attend community colleges their goal is to transfer to a Cal State University or Uniersity. Thus, the transfer process could be very tedious and confusing. The thought of transferring and filling out application that are all new is an overwhelming thought.

This student service is beneficial because students have people help them filling out transfer applications, have access to individual counseling, and it’s free of charge!…

I have decided to apply to the UNCW Honors College because I strive to excel in everything I do while setting an example for my peers. I am a natural leader and feel that being a member of the honors college would propel me into the leadership role that I thrive in. I am strong in my beliefs and morals and will positively impact my peers as well as my community. I also would like to be surrounded by strong, like-minded individuals that take pride in their school and community. While being a member of the UNCW Honors College, I hope to positively impact my school as well as my community. I have lived in Wilmington all my life and have grown up around UNCW. Since this is my hometown I have a great deal of pride for this area and look to enrich…
Deciding which college to go to is one of the hardest decisions for a senior in high school to make. Some people know where they want to go right away because they are either huge fans of the college, got a full ride scholarship there, or maybe liked the program for their major at that particular college. High school seniors must do a lot of research on the colleges they like so that they can narrow down their choices. The research they must do is to look for how much it will cost to get in to the college and the other things that must be paid. For example, the tuition is a requirement for all colleges. Others that must be paid are things like books, supplies, residence halls, and meal plans. There are several other different ways that a person can decide where they want to go. Getting into a college isn’t all fun and games; there are many processes that the incoming freshmen must go through to get into their school. A school that many students have looked into is Sam Houston State University. Many students worry about the admissions of getting into a college, but SHSU admissions is a very easy process to go through. When the student gets admitted into Sam Houston, they then have to be advised. Advising helps the incoming freshmen with what classes they need to take and what they want to major in. Sam Houston has a great doctoral program and the two that are very high ranked in Texas are the Criminal Justice and Education program. Many people choose to go to SHSU because of these programs. Students aren’t just looking for good academic opportunities though, they also are looking for a good social life. They will want to take some time off from studying and doing school work and will want to go out and be a part of different things on campus. Greek life and recreational sports are well known at SHSU and are joined by many students. These activities keep students social, active and healthy. This is a good university with an easy admission process, well rounded…
In the spring of this incoming academic year, I will be transferring from a community college to a four-year school. With this transfer, I will be presented the opportunity to finish my degree, met new professors and classmates, and take interesting classes. However, the greatest thing that I will be presented with is a higher tuition bill for attending a four-year college. At first, I was very worried about how I would pay for it; I never had to take a loan for my community college because I could cover whatever else I had to pay. My parents don’t have that much money so I began to get anxious of if it was even a possibility to attend my four-year school after I was finished with community college. I might have to stop going to school in order just to pay for it and I did not want to do that. However,…
I ended up going to Richland Community College due to my lack of education and the consequences of slacking during high school. I’ve never been the brightest child nor did I take education really seriously while I was in high school. Playing video games on constant basis did not help with my GPA at all. From the video games to the testing anxiety, it made me just want to skip through high school and go to college. But neglecting school work has finally come to a toll as I took the ACT and the SAT with terrible scores due to my testing anxiety. I’ve come to Richland Community College for assistance and for a better start on my education. Hopefully…

This college could help me to built skills, independence, responsibilities, communication and other such lifestyles to become a nurse practitioner. I believe that this college would be interested to have me as their dedicated student. I would not bring failure to this school because I'm very serious with my education so that way I would be ring honors to my future classmates, family and…
I had already started the process by having my transcripts transferred from another technical college. It was the beginning of August and I was waiting to hear how many of my credits would transfer. This also happened to be the time of the Wisconsin State Fair. My husband and I attended as we have every year. That trip to the fair changed my course of education in a way I never would have imagined.…
I would like to transfer once I get my associate degree at a community college because I feel I am ready to move forward with my education. I currently am enrolled at Cabrillo Community College, which is, for the most part, a transfer prep college. Community College has prepared me to study at a University and I hope to continue my studies as far as I can go. As I grew up, I was interested in a wide range of subjects and never found one thing I was truly passionate about. When I started at community college, I was set on a computer science major because I knew I was computer proficient and enjoyed spending my free time figuring out programs. I struggled a great deal in the major. As I realized that I was not passionate about programming, I…

I am positive that my perseverance and diligence will help me in my road earning my degree and my hardships did act as speed bump, but it made me stronger in the…

The new community college for full-time students will not provide a degree in all areas, “All first-year students would be required to take a predetermined core curriculum and would then be limited to their choice of about 12 majors” (Moltz, 2009). The majors that were proposed will be in pre-career fields, which will be designed to assist students with transferability. The transferability requirements to four-year institutions have increased throughout the years and it is important that the two-year college focuses on making sure that student are academically on track to transfer. At times, community college students do not complete a bachelor’s due to the lack of preparation for what is expected of them once they transfer. The curriculum proposed requires full time enrollment and taking more than 12 units per semester, which will prepare students for a better transition to a four-year…
For my post-secondary schooling, I have been accepted into, and planning to attend, Georgia Southern University. I chose this school for many different reasons, and going to orientation expanded those reasons. Georgia Southern offers many great opportunities for what I want to do in life. The campus is about an hour away from where I currently live, so it is close to home but not too close to home. The professors and staff are friendly and want to see the students succeed and are always ready to help. I could go on and on about why I chose this school, but I believe…
Florida State is a place I can see myself flourishing. My mom and aunt both attended college on your campus, so why not me as well? If I am accepted, I want to make the most of my time there. Make new friends, memories, create impacts wherever I can. I also expect to be impacted by your influences as well. The campus life, the people, the traditions. It will all be new to me, but it will all be what helps mold me even…
