Based on the views I grew up with and the people in my life I looked up to, college is the key to a successful future. When it was time for me to apply to my desired colleges, I made sure I was prepared and had everything I needed to start the process. Little did I know that there was more to my journey than being accepted into my desired college.

My college admission process started very early and with preparation and I was looking forward to every new day with anticipation. I would check my email, mailbox and my cellphone constantly to see if I had anything new. Despite this, I noticed something that began to trouble me. Of my peers, I was one of the few who did not hear anything from admissions. I was very nervous, and scheduled a meeting with my guidance counselor to see if there was anything I could do to improve my chances. There was nothing I could do; and I ended up finding out that she never sent out my transcript or my recommendation letters to any of my colleges!

Time was ticking and in haste I applied to the liberal arts program at (Community College). With my intended major being in theater, I came to the conclusion that I needed to leave; that this program was not for me. I took the theater electives offered there; but left each class with an even greater desire to study theater in a structured academic environment, and even more convinced that this college was not meeting my need.

As I am becoming experienced with college life, I realize that I have been given the opportunity to meet and develop relationships with many people from different backgrounds. From my research, the(UNIVERSITY OF____) has a theater program that will keep me challenged with its academic programs, as well as having more knowledge of career opportunities and an opportunity to have a productive college experience will carry into my career of theater.

Attending a community College also has helped me learn more of myself and what I want in my education. I look forward to giving and receiving the best from my next college.I want to transfer to a university that allows me to immerse myself in an environment that will expand my mind creatively and intellectually. My ability to adapt to new environments shows that I can make the best of my college years and opportunities.
