Undergraduate / My essay on why I chose pharmacy and what about it interests me? [5]
Please provide an essay that explains why you chose your intended program of study. What interests you the most about this major? If Undecided, what areas of study do you look forward to studying in college? (50-500 words)
Pharmacy is a stressful career to pursue, involving the distribution of medication, educating patients on health-related questions, and much more. At any moment, a mistake could be made that'll impact someone's life in a big or small way. Knowing this information, it does not affect my decision to achieve a Doctorate of Pharmacy and help everyone who comes into my life. Pharmacist work in more than retail stores, they work helping people who are in desperate need, people in natural disasters and crises. I choose to pursue pharmacy so I can help people from countries with poor health care, like in Bolivia, ranked one of the lowest health care systems in the western hemisphere.
Pharmacy is the field of study I want to pursue because it gives me an opportunity to help people who can't get the medicine they require due to disaster or poor health care systems. I wish to aid those that have less than I do because no one should suffer and or die because they don't have the medicine. Pharmacy is also a profession that involves communicating with patients, a characteristic other sciences don't include. Another influence is recognizing symptoms, they have the knowledge to notice signs and prevent the disease from getting worse. There are many reasons I choose this profession as my career choice, the biggest being the communication, helping the less fortunate, and their knowledge on symptoms.
Many traits of pharmacy interest me, one would be that it is a top ranked occupation in the U.S and it is always in high demand. I'm interested in the medication, the symptoms and signs, and I want to learn how to use them for health and not harm. I have the opportunity to monitor a patient's health, educate them on medicine, provide immunizations, and meet new people that I can aid everyday. Pharmacy works with a lot of math of science, courses I've been interested in for a long time and this occupation would grant me life long learning. The biggest interest is communication, conversing directly with the patient and forming relationships every time they return, being in the community.
Joining the community, forming relationships, help patients with their health, and in some cases, travel to countries to aid those less fortunate are some reasons why I want to become part of the field of medicine. Assisting students, joining discussions, and solving problems are steps I can take to reach my goal and aid anyone who requires my service. My motivation encourages me to take any early steps to learn and be prepared for starting college and competing to graduate at the top of my class.
My essay is within the word limit, thank you for the advice I will consider it.

The essay displays how much of a leader you are but as @holt said, it's too short. A way to lengthen the essay would be to describe some obstacles and how you conquered them, how you manage your time, or even talk about what motivates you while still displaying how much of a great leader you are.

Undergraduate / How can you contribute to the Honors College community? What benefits do you expect in return? [3]
In its mission statement, the UIC Honors College is described as a community of scholars whose goal is to enrich the education experience of undergraduates and allow the faculty and students of all disciplines to interact in teaching, learning and research. Please tell us "How can you contribute to the Honors College community?" What benefits do you expect in return? (400-500 words)
The UIC Honors College provides future scholars with all the tools a student needs to challenge him or herself and make the experience rewarding and memorable. Giving back to a community where groundbreaking research is made sounds like a challenge I'd be willing to take, whether it's contributing to the discussion or setting an example and being a leader. My motivation drives me to do more than what expected, I want to learn from UIC's top professors and be guided in my field of study. Resources, advisors, and the learning environment are all means to guide me down my field of study and put skills acquired to good use and change medicine for the better. UIC's Honors College is a supportive environment I'm looking forward being productive and part of social events with fellow students and faculty who guide me to challenge and be a leader.
Contributing to a great college with academic excellence is a good chance to be a leader, it is necessary to communicate well with others in my field of study. Providing advice, giving back to students, tasks similar to these will aid me in continuing growth for learning. Learning new subjects at college level is vastly different from high school level, so I will struggle with sections just like fellow classmates. Asking questions and becoming part of the discussion can help me and other students through difficult situations, and we can progress together from topic to topic. Last, volunteering in some of the 35 student service organizations provides me and others opportunities to speak on issues or questions we share.
Attending UIC's Honors College grants me unlimited benefits such as skills developed in the classroom, learn from UIC's top professors, and much more. First, the transition from high school to college will allow me time to settle into the supportive environment and prepare for what will be an exciting stage of my life. Second, I would like to develop communication skills and create bonds with fellow students, learning from them so I can thrive and do the same for others. Finally, the benefits from a challenging environment allow me to graduate sooner than others, beginning my career as a pharmacist and contributing to more than just the student community. In Honors College, I want to make the most out of my time there so that I can have an impact on the pharmacy occupation and give excellent service.
Honors College is a privilege for anyone who is accepted, where academic excellence is taught in the supportive environment. Being accepted allows me to join the diverse community and provide what I can offer. Being provided advantages such as earlier graduation, special facilities for only honors students, faculty fellows, and much more is the greatest opportunity a first year like myself could be chosen to attend. If accepted, I would be excited and prepared for the 2018-19 school year.
