I have always considered myself an explorer. Even as a toddler I wanted to see and experience everything around me. Unfortunately, most of my explorations ended with me being lost. While my navigational skills have greatly improved since then, my passion for exploration persists.
As I embark on my college journey, my curiosity of the world around me continues to develop and will only be heightened at the University of Michigan. With well equipped professors, laboratories, and medical research opportunities, I look forward to exploring all U-M has to offer. In pursuit of a degree in Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience or Development, Psychopathology and Mental Health, I will explore the inner workings of the human mind to better understand how people think. During my four years at the University of Michigan, I plan to take part in many psychology research projects such as the Family Relationships project, Judgment and Decision Lab, and the Evolution of Social behavior Laboratory. By taking part in psychology research, I would receive hands on education of the material I am learning in class and see actual studies taking place.
For me, The University of Michigan is the start of something new, something exhilarating, something that can't be experienced elsewhere. As a member of the University of Michigan community, I will consistently be learning both inside and outside of my classes. Here I can concentrate on receiving my major in psychology, while using my autonomy to start my own organization. In addition, I can join existing organizations such as the Black Premedical Association Student Society, Reach Out, and EnAct.
At U-M, I know that I can accomplish anything and everything no matter how minuscule. With a student body that hails from many states and various countries, I would be able to explore my love of learning, while stepping outside of my usual surroundings to learn about other cultures first hand. With University of Michigan's study abroad programs, I would be able to broaden my knowledge of foreign countries and languages, while still receiving the excellent education that U-M has to offer. Through the University of Michigan's Global Academic program, I can choose to study anywhere from Florence to Dublin or Italy to Spain.
Of the many things I hope to accomplish during my four years as an undergraduate, my experience would not be the same if not at the University of Michigan. At U Mich, the world is my playing field. Wherever my explorations take me, whether to the Diag or to another country, I will always remember my binoculars and follow the trail I left behind, to find my way home to U-M.
I recycled a bit of this essay from my BU essay but it still works. As always please read and edit and I will edit your essay in return.
