Undergraduate / Husband is being stationed in Ft. Lewis, Reasons For Transferring and the Objectives [4]
I have decided to transfer from my current school, Muskingum University in Ohio, to a new school in Washington merely for the fact that my husband is being stationed in Ft. Lewis. We recently got married and I am excited that Washington will become my new home. I love the school I am attending now, but am excited for such an opportunity and ability to obtain a different taste of college. There is not much about my school that I dislike so I do not have any specifics I am looking for, such as harder classes or more diversity. I am pretty easy going and trust that I will get a decent education at a range of school. My main hope is to, obviously, get my college degree. I also am hoping I can not only have a great education, but the opportunity to meet many new people. I am involved in a few clubs on my campus now, including Relay for Life, American Chemical Society, dance team and Praise choir. I am also in a sophomore honorary, Lambda Sigma, and in a local Christian sorority. Being so involved in things on campus is really important to me. I feel that the bonds made during college will last through life and that clubs are a fun and ideal way to initiate these bonds. I also am grateful for this change in school so that I can explore more career options. I recently am majoring in Middle Childhood Education with concentrations in Math and Science but have found many of my subject oriented classes to be challenging while my education classes to be contradictory. Though I enjoy the range of classes Muskingum University has to offer and the LAE's I have had to take, the education classes have not been for me. Many schools in Washington do not offer this major as an undergrad program, so changing my major may be in my future. I will be able to see if a change in scenery is what I need to be able to tackle these challenging classes or if what I really do need is a change in majors. I have also been weary since the beginning of the education department at Muskingum University. Though the education program is known to be a great one, I know of two teachers from my high school who graduated from Muskingum only to become terrible teachers. When I first looked at colleges in Ohio I was thrilled for living on campus; now I feel that being able to live off campus will benefit me more. It will allow me to focus more on my work instead of what my housemates are doing. Living in my own house will enable me to have the quiet, alone time that I need in order to put all the needed effort into my homework. I enjoy school very much and know I need a college degree to go anywhere in life. My main objectives are getting my degree, staying involved, meeting new people, and to learn. I enjoy learning from every aspect and cannot wait to broaden my horizon at a new school.
of course i will break it into paragraphs. this is just a very basic rough draft.
