Out of the many reasons that inspired me to apply to the George Washington University, the reason that shines out the most is politics. Ever since I first visited the U.S. Capitol, I have become lured by the both the domestic and international political system. I quenched my thirst for learning and experiencing more about politics by being involved with my school, by participating in our school's Model United Nations club, and by actually participating in the political system locally. I have had the chance to get involved in my school "government" by helping to come up with a tutoring program for my school's social science department and my Japanese class for students who were in danger of failing in either one of them. I have also had the chance to get a feel for politics when I attended the numerous Model United Nations competitions that have been held over the years. I cannot say I enjoyed every minute of it, but I can say it has taught me a lot. Being a member for three years has taught me how important world issues really are. Every session, I have represented a different country other than my home countries such as the Iran, Myanmar, and Sweden. At the most recent session, I represented the country of Iran on the topic of Iran's Nuclear Program. I wasn't the best delegate out there, and certainly not the best speaker. Although the M.U.N delegates did not come up with a resolution that all the countries could agree on, I believe I tried my best to follow what the real representatives of Iran might have done. M.U.N has taught me it's not easy being a country most people have a prejudice notion on It has also opened my eyes to the bigger world out there with the issues people are trying to resolve. I also had the chance to participate in the actual political process when I volunteered in 2008 for my friend's mother's campaign for the position of city council chair for our city and helped convince her to reform out school's system of education and extend fee waivers to more needy students in our school. The importance and relevance of politics to the modern world have led me to want to pursue the study of this social science at the George Washington University. As a result, my love for politics has only grown over the years and nothing attracts me more than being in the presence of major political institutions and politicians. I have come to politics with an open mind - interested and yearning for more ï and I want to develop this love for it further. I look forward to all the opportunities of studying politics in-depth with the guidance of experts and in the company of new and interesting people that Washington D.C. can offer. The George Washington University allows all these things to happen for me.
