Undergraduate / "Dream Big, and The Result Will be Big." Why would you be a great participant of Ugrad? [2]
Why would you be a great participant of Ugrad?
Hey guys. So, I'm applying for Global Ugrad program this year and this is my essay. Any kind of feedback would be greatly appreciated.
My lecturer once said that we were born to explore the world. It'd be a shame for us to just stay inside our shell all our life. And I completely agree with him. Going abroad had always been my biggest dream in life. I am never scared to dream big. Because I always believe that those who dream big, are those who will achieve the most.
Being the first one to go to college in my family has been a great motivation for me to really achieve my dreams in life and also to do well in my college studies. Especially since I got the Bidikmisi scholarship from the Indonesia's government to cover my college tuition, because I understand that my parents' financial condition can't afford me to continue my education in college. I always thought to myself that I have this obligation to give back what has been given to me. So, another one of my goals is to make myself to be able to contribute to this country. In my case, since I am a chemistry major, I want to help in developing the industrial sector and research in Indonesia. I am fully aware that research and technology is two important roles in this globalization era.
I am currently in my second year as a chemistry major in Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). Being a chemistry student was my own decision, because I believe that chemistry holds a big role in our life. It explains many important things in life, such as medicine, environmental issues, industrial processes, etc. I wish to pursue my education in the US because many of the top universities in the world are in there. The US also has a good education system and a good chemistry program for me to learn more about my field of study. And as a multicultural country, the US might be a perfect way for me to improve my views on the reality.
I'm aware that the participants of this program would come from around the world, with a different language, character, and culture. This would be my chance to get a cross cultural experience. In my university, I also active in a student union that is focusing on Angklung (Indonesia's traditional music instrument) Music Orchestra. I really wish I'd get a chance to introduce Angklung to the world and let them know that Indonesia has a lot of amazing cultures.
With those explanations above, I am sure that I am eligible and am a good candidate for Fulbright Global Undergraduate Program. I am passionate and have a strong motivation to be a part of this program. This would be my first experience abroad. And I believe this program will help me open my eyes to the world out there and help me achieve my dreams.
