Undergraduate / UFC Application Question on activities and Essay on my interest in UCF [5]
Hello all,
I'm currently filling out one of my college apps and I could really use some help. It would be very appreciated!
Activities question: "Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences."
My response: "Since November 18th of 2016, I have volunteered more than 300 hours at Memorial Hospital Miramar. This experience has proven to be incredible for me for it has shown me that I want to have a career in which I will be able to help out the community. Some of the activities that I perform include discharging patients, passing out water, assembling admission packets, etc. I really enjoy getting to interact with patients one on one because sometimes you'll come across someone who doesn't have anyone by their side during these challenging times and I'm given the opportunity to be there and cheer them on."
Essay question: "Why are you interested in UCF?"
My response: "Why I'm interested in UCF is as simple as asking "Why not?". One of the reasons being is that it's located in Orlando, one of my favorite vacation destinations, and there's never a dull moment when I'm there. I've also watched plenty of videos of students who go to UCF and it seems that there's always some sort of event going on for students to engage in, thus proving that the university has a certain aspect of vitality to it. Another reason why I know for certain that I want to attend UCF is that of how highly my cousin speaks of it. When I first realized I was interested in UCF, I asked my cousin for more information given that she had just finished her freshmen year there and anyone could easily see the pride she holds closely from being a UCF Knight. Although I will be pursuing a business degree, I'm interested in attending medical school and with the new state-of-the-art building and technology available at the UCF College of Medicine, I believe I would be able to excel as one of the young doctors of the 21st century."
Again, thank you so much!
