Undergraduate / 'the ethics of CC are instilled in me' - Colorado College Supplement [2]

How did you learn about Colorado College and why do you wish to attend? (Early candidates: Please include a statement indicating why you are applying early.)

With an alumnus of Colorado College as a father, the ethics of CC are instilled in me. I have grown to know CC as a place for high-quality education, fun, and a strong foundation for a bright future. For these reasons, I am attracted to Colorado College. But more importantly, I believe CC would be a perfect fit for me because it was a perfect fit for my father and so I have decided to apply. While my dad and I are not identical in every way, we share many common interests and characteristics. I look to my dad's life and the choices he's made as somewhat of a blueprint for my life because I admire his success and the way he carries himself. He attributes his success to his college education and I hope to be able to do the same. Based on what he has shared with me about his experience at CC, I look forward to making life-long friends and developing skills I can carry with me the rest of my life. Overall, I wish to attend Colorado College because I believe I will enjoy myself and be presented with opportunities that will assist me in achieving the success I want.

I am applying Early Action so I can receive a possible decision from Colorado College earlier and I don't have to withstand waiting as long.
