Undergraduate / College, a place of New Begginings & unexpected encounters; TRANSFERING OBJECTIVES [2]
Please provide a statement (appr. 250-500 words) that addresses your reasons for transferring and the objectives you hope to achieve.
I always thought of college as a place of new beginnings and unexpected encounters. It would be place where I would make lifelong friends, with whom I would enjoy some of the best years of my life with. However, as a senior in High School, I felt withdrawn from the idea of choosing a direction in life. It was a big switch for me and unfortunately I was not prepared to make such a drastic decision. My mother, a graduate of Norwalk Community College, advised me to attend NCC just until I had decided what I wanted to pursue in life.
My time at Norwalk Community College has been undeniably magnificent. Over the course of my first semester, I have developed into a prestigious young man that clearly understands his major and knows the steps necessary to obtain it. NCC gave me the free time I needed to read several medical books and prepare myself mentally for any challenging coursework that may come ahead. I have made many good friends at Norwalk Community College and I have studied with some wonderful professors. Today I know I am ready to take on bigger challenges. My potential, determination, and diligence are great characteristics that I was able to strengthen during my semester at NCC and are now going to aid me as I transition to a four-year institute.
Furthermore, NCC helped me absorb the academic lifestyle of a college student and build my interest for the medical field. On the other hand, it did not allow me to experience living on a college campus. I wanted to immerse myself within a diverse community while at the same time taking dynamic courses to fulfill the prerequisites of my major. NCC was a great start, but it was not the whole package; this is when I knew that I had to transfer to a four-year institute in order to understand what it truly meant to be in a university.
1) What more should I talk about?
2) Is it grammatically correct?
3) Anything I can reword to make it better?
