NYU Abu Dhabi. The idea of going to an university, let alone leaving the school, had been disturbing [5]
Why do you want go to do NYU Abu Dhabi? (common app essay)The idea of going to university, let alone leaving the school, had been disturbing: To me, it was an institution where the teachers and students shared no bond, a place without any extra-curricular, where the only focus is to study in a tedious manner while specialising in one field.
Studying in an international school in Germany has shown me the importance of pursuing education in a culturally diverse school, and has transformed the little me into a knowledgeable and critical thinker. The multicultural ambience at NYUAD will not merely help me understand different viewpoints and aspects, but also help me discover my own identity.
It comforts me to know that I would be able to engage myself in various clubs and core programmes, especially 'Immortality and Regeneration' and 'Laughter,' along with focusing on my majors and minors. Due to these core subjects, my knowledge won't be limited to my majors and minors. 'Immortality and Regeneration' and 'Laughter' would cultivate my understanding and knowledge about humans, science, and different cultures as they would have different perspectives.
I am interested in the sciences, but the flexibility of the liberal arts system would help me figure out what I would like to take as my majors and minors, along with giving me an opportunity to experience an array of disciplines making sure I get a well-rounded education.
Having lived in Germany for the last four years of my life, I would love to visit the middle east, where the culture is similar to India's in some ways, but yet there are endless things to explore about it. The residential educational events at NYUAD provides a home-like atmosphere, forms a society where one could learn about community spirit, get creative, and showcase your talent at Ultra Violet Live.
The unfamiliar atmosphere, which had been my biggest fear, does not exist at NYUAD: smaller class sizes, a global atmosphere, rich academics, individual attention, and a close-knit community would give me the best way of education a student can get.
