From what i have heard, even though this is an optional essay on the application, the school actually cares about it a lot!!!
I did some research and tried to present how well i know about the school and how Tulane will advance my career and educational goals.
I will appreciate any feedback!!! Thank you all very much!!!
A year ago, I came to the United States of America as a high school junior through an international exchange program, which eventually became one of my greatest life time experiences. This program has provided me a unique opportunity me to know individual teachers and students of Merrol Hyde Magnet School and local residents of the State of Tennessee. From them, I have learned much about the American culture. In every way, the exchange program has exposed me to a totally different and exciting new world by offering me a variety of choices and opportunities as I began to explore my role in the society. The fact that many Americans volunteer their time to help others has strongly influenced my decision to give back to the community in a variety of positive ways.
I'm planning to study Public Health in Tulane University. In my opinion, Public Health is a dynamic and rewarding field that offers great personal fulfillment by working towards improving hundreds and thousands of people's health and well being. I want to help people and I enjoy serving others. I hope one day I can use what I learn in college to further the progress that my native country, China, and other developing nations are currently making.
As one of the most highly regarded and selective independent research universities in the United States, Tulane attracts me with its exceptional academic programs and the rigorous research activities. I am aware that the School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine is the oldest school of public health in the nation, and is recognized as one of the accredited members of ASPH (Association of Schools of Public Health), offering a special 4+1 joint degree program to the outstanding students. Studying in Tulane will equip me with a strong base in the liberal arts and sciences and a solid foundation in the public health sciences. The university's extensive research collaboration with other celebrated educational institutions around the world will serve as a great ladder for me to the broader perspective of Public Health in a global level. In addition, I am amazed by the great number of academic resources and opportunities that are offered to the students in Tulane. As an entering international freshman interested in the public health sciences, I would like to engage myself in various activities outside the classroom, such as The Tulane Public Health Society (TUPHS) and the Center for Public Service (CPS). The numerous enrichment activities and programs will provide me ample opportunities to develop and to apply my academic knowledge, to explore different cultures and communities, and to continue my passion of doing public service.
I appreciate the university's effort in building a collegial and stimulating learning environment and offering unparalleled opportunities for all students. The school has an ambitious and eager student body, and it is my inclination to face demanding challenges and heightened competition by being one of the diversified elite students, learning from each other. I truly believe that Tulane will provide me an excellent academic education and help me lay a solid foundation for my future career.
