The Supplements to Syracuse University are as follows:
They have given me 4 questions to answer to but they didn't include a limit amount of words to write so I don't know if I wrote too much and went overboard. Your critiques and opinions are valued. Thanks guys!!!
1. Who or what influenced you to apply to Syracuse University?
College is an important stepping stone in my life that will shape my path to success in every endeavor that I decide to take on, and with the education that I receive; many doors will open to help me accomplish my goals throughout life. The long road of finding my ideal college began my junior year of high school when I started searching for top university's that provide the best education for students majoring in Sociology and Journalism. Through this search I came across Syracuse University and I have not been able to stop thinking about it ever since. Syracuse University is more than just your regular college that provides you with the tools to succeed in life. They make it their mission to provide each and every one of their students with an education that is engaging through hands on activities and experiences that concentrate on real world issues. Learning through experience is much more elevating than gaining knowledge through a textbook. Syracuse University provides their students with the opportunity to express their individuality, customize their education with a dual or an individualized major and make a difference in the lives of others.
What cemented my decision in applying to Syracuse University is their ability to provide an amazing education to their students through the best professors, all in an intimate environment where you feel at home. I can imagine myself eating a vegetarian meal at one of the residential dining centers and later partaking in a late night activity. I can see myself participating in many clubs and organizations such as Zipped Magazine and showing my school pride by wearing head to toe orange at the Carrier Dome rooting for one of our many sport teams. I have never felt as passionate about a school as I do Syracuse University.
I am applying to Syracuse University because I know that if enrolled, I am not just another student, but an accomplishment. This university has everything I'm looking for in a school: A diverse and lively campus with many organizations and clubs, the best staff in all of New York, and a quality education. Acceptance into this prestigious university will cement success in my life.
2. Who is the person you dream of becoming and how do you believe Syracuse University can help you achieve this?
There are many inspirational people that have graced themselves in our lives, and inspired us to become better people. Though this person is not a celebrity, and cannot be found or researched in any textbook or Wikipedia article, she is very important to me and the person I hope of becoming in the future. My mother Ginette Jean-Pierre is an exceptional woman; and no amount of words or praise can truly compare to how amazing she is. I never realized it before, but my mother is special. Without any help and barely able to speak English, she has made a life for herself in America and has been able to provide a comfortable and loving living environment for my brothers and I. My mother is strong willed and has the capability to impact the lives of whoever she meets. What intrigues me the most about my mother is the fact that she's gone through so much, but she has never given up on people no matter how much they have hurt her. She is always there to lend a helping hand to whoever she meets. If there's anyone in the world who I would choose to become, without a moment's hesitation I would say my mom.
Syracuse University plays a very important part in becoming a strong and caring person because they pride themselves in educating their students not for education's sake, but to change the lives of people around them and one day the world. I want to be part of that learning environment because I want to be able to impact the people around me for the better. I want to give strength to those around me as my mom has done to the people around her. From participating in community service to engaging in hands on training and exposure in my chosen field, Syracuse provides me with unlimited opportunities to gain leadership and impact the people around me. At Syracuse, I know there's nothing I can't accomplish.
