This is probably the most lame, and trite essay ever. So I need help. Any comments? Anything I can change or delete? Any comment would be great help.
How does the University of Chicago, as you know it now, satisfy your desire for a particular kind of learning, community, and future? Please address with some specificity your own wishes and how they relate to UChicago.*
During my college searching, I have discovered some of the qualities in life I truly value. The University of Chicago seems like a place in which I can learn as much as I allow myself to learn. I can't shove aside the fact that it looks like the ideal place for the sprouting of innovational ideas watered by the liquids of excitement and determination.
The mysterious yet elegant city of Chicago has always gotten my attention, and having lived there the first 8 years of my life, the city has encrypted in me a love for gothic architecture. The architects who designed the city, and the school, inspire me to be an architect of my own creations. Maybe I won't design buildings, but I feel like I could design and manipulate the way my inventions or discoveries help the world one day.
UChicago has built the ideal atmosphere in which a student can truly learn. Although it is a large university, it has a 6 to 1 student/ faculty ratio, therefore it provides an opportunity for a curious student like me, to exchange ideas with other students and have an actual connection with my professors. I could learn about other cultures from the international students that visit the school. I believe that culture is something that has a great impact on education because it allows students to learn about different perspectives, ideas, and values. Having graduated from a school, I want to feel like I not only learned something, but also made friends that I will hopefully stay in contact with the rest of my life.
