Undergraduate / Skipping the school never was in my interest, I'm focused on the success only - UCF essay [4]
What qualities or unique characteristics do you possess that would allow you to contribute to the UCF community?
What kind of kid foregoes the opportunity to skip school to go to an amusement park? The answer is the kid writing this essay. Even before high school, I never liked the idea of skipping school, even if I was sick. This is thanks to my quality of being dedicated to success. This quality has stuck with me to this day and it's a great part of why I'm applying to UCF. At this school, I know I will be challenged academically and with the challenge comes my goal of doing the most I can to succeed. I always strive to do my best and push myself to the limits and I can radiate this energy to my peers and help others find success in accomplishing their goals.
I tend to always remain optimistic as well, which goes hand in hand with my dedication to success. Optimism is a quality that gives me purpose. I know at this university I'll give my all in everything I do with the mindset that I'll succeed. Success may not happen the first time, but success is destined if I keep trying.
In high school, I had days where I had a 4 hour band practice after school, babysitting responsibilities when I got home, and tons of homework that I needed to get done for my AICE and AP courses. Even with all of this, I never let any of these obligations get in the way of my academics. I always found a way to get everything done thanks to my time-management skills I learned over the years. These skills can be a great advantage to me at this university when I'm juggling course work, a job, and the various school activities. With these qualities, I am sure that I will be able to contribute to the UCF community and reach my goal of graduating with a B.A degree in information technology.
