My crucial attributes, which empower my never-ending drive for a successful future career, have unfolded during my early years. The academic process has enhanced my cognitive functions and mindset as I have progressed. Additionally, academics revealed my strong attributes that will be advantageous for a promising future. From the heap of my attributes, a few of them will be the foundation of my endeavor for remarkable change.
Over the years of tenacious learning, I have shown academic excellence in numerous curricula. Furthermore, I have exhibited proficiency in studies associated with the STEM program. This well-rounded curriculum is suitable for robust analytical thinkers and adept problem solvers. These similar attributes are actively present in my intellect as I progressively ace STEM-related studies and fuel my drive to be ambitious for my future career.
Excluding academics, I developed an immense passion for automobiles and their complex systems. From taking automotive courses to learning new information about automobiles from the media, I have accumulated vast knowledge about what comprises an automobile. I have spent my free time creating remarkable contraptions from LEGO pieces. Many LEGO pieces are constructed as cars, high-speed hand-cranked gearboxes, or even vacuum-powered engines and turbines. My definitive imagination is the only thing restricting my creativity, but both are crucial for my future career. Additionally, my other few attributes from hobbies will also fuel my significant ambition.
What career do automotive professionals have so they can think analytically well, solve problems effortlessly with knowledge, and have limitless creativity? From my inference, those professionals are known as automotive engineers. My drive to become a successful automotive engineer, while utilizing my attributes, has never discouraged me. The primary purpose of this ambition is for me to make a difference in the automotive industry while fulfilling my passion for automobiles. Furthermore, I want my community of African Americans to be represented in different white collar professions. As many minority groups in America are underrepresented in the workforce, I will step up and be the social hero for African American workers. My future is rapidly transforming into the past, so my mental goal is to utilize my time wisely and effectively to prepare for my promising future.
My remarkable changes to the automotive industry will involve me utilizing all of my attributes to work as a top-tier automotive engineer. I will innovate game-changing automotive systems and technology to satisfy the customer's necessities and welfare. These innovations could range from the creation of electric vehicles to autonomous driving. Satisfied customers of the automotive company I will operate in will construct a healthy financial and personal bond. This gradually increases the number of customers willing to purchase automobiles with highly innovative technology. Whatever it takes to be a successful engineer will be complicated, but my attributes and mental goals will permit me to change the automotive industry.
In a world where endless ideas are crafted into products and services, marketing brings them to life. The persuasive graphics, crafting of stories, and influencing of minds are powerful elements that marketing embodies. Effective marketing requires prior knowledge of global and local communities and identifying those with the greatest need. Growing up, volunteering was a regular activity for our family, so signing up for summer service in high school was a no-brainer. After submitting over 500 volunteer hours to my school, I earned two presidential volunteer awards, a testament to my charitable work. My commitment to giving back to the community is important to me, and I know this is something I will continue in college. As I pursue my own goals, I will prioritize the search for communities in which I can make a positive impact.
Despite being the fastest-growing college graduate group, black women continue to experience major inequities compared to black men. The racism and sexism that black women face is something I have experienced firsthand, and my experiences influenced me to dive into community service. I painted murals for black-owned businesses, volunteered at churches, and tutored younger students. I have a rare ability to connect with diverse audiences, similar to how marketing aims to engage and inspire a wide range of customers. Marketing is more than designing campaigns; it’s about changing corporate culture and reaching a wide variety of people worldwide.
Marketing is a blend of art and business - two crafts near and dear to my heart. As a child, I would draw, paint, and have celebrations that always included art. Art gifts were the go-tos for my family whenever they wanted to make me happy. I have continued to enjoy art and have taken multiple art courses throughout my educational journey. Once I got to middle school, I found interest in having my own business. With family support, I had an array of businesses that ranged from tutoring to lemonade stands. I eventually graduated to having an Etsy shop, where I sold hand-made pillows. I quickly learned that in order to have a successful business, the product must be marketed in a way that will gain the attention of others through skillful promotion. My passion for marketing, combined with the dedication and hard work I put into pursuing it, reflects my commitment to this field. I envision myself continuing marketing with the same drive and enthusiasm, making meaningful contributions to the business world and its advancement in the future.
Marketing is the bridge between art and business, two subjects I have long been passionate about. Through this field, I will confront global gender inequality and racism, ensuring everyone can become a changemaker. A degree in marketing will allow me to elevate businesses and creatively impact product promotion worldwide, ultimately allowing me to affect change in the business world.
Building Success Through Determination
My name is Mason Clay, and I am a senior at Bishop Chatard High School in Indianapolis. Numbers don’t always tell the full story of a person, and I hope to show through my actions, character, and ambition that I have what it takes to succeed in college and beyond. While my GPA is currently 2.99, I am determined to make the most of every opportunity that comes my way, let me explain.
When I began researching colleges, I was shocked to see the cost of higher education. The thought of tuition, fees, and living expenses seemed overwhelming, and I realized how many great minds may never have the chance to reach their potential because of the financial burden, not just before college but long after graduation. This only strengthened my resolve to rise above these challenges and become more than my circumstances.
Coming from a single parent household, I’ve witnessed the importance of hard work and perseverance through my mother, who has always been my greatest inspiration. Her sacrifices have given me the chance to pursue my dreams, and I am committed to honoring that by becoming the first in my family to graduate from college.
My interest in business and entrepreneurship comes from a desire to create opportunities for others. One of my goals is to start a nonprofit organization called ‘Black Kids Read’ This program would connect college students with younger children to inspire a love for reading and provide representation through diverse stories.
Growing up, books gave me a sense of empowerment and helped me dream beyond the limitations others might place on me. I want to make sure that every child has the chance to feel that same inspiration.
Through my future career, I aim to not only build a successful business but also give back to my community. I want to mentor young people, help create access to education, and provide resources to those who feel left behind. I believe that success isn’t just about personal achievement, it’s about lifting others as you rise.
This scholarship would give me the opportunity to focus on my education and build the skills I need to turn my vision into reality. While my academic journey hasn’t always been easy, I’ve learned the value of resilience and determination. I know that with the right tools and support, I can make a difference in the world and inspire others to do the same.
Thank you for considering my application. I am grateful for this opportunity to take another step toward achieving my dreams and building a brighter future for myself, my family, and my community.
My name is Addison Williams, a senior at Hobart High School, where I've been heavily involved in extracurricular activities such as sports and leadership roles in various clubs. Through my experiences, I've developed a passion for marketing and sports, which has inspired me to pursue a career in sports business marketing or management. I aim to use my skills to promote diversity and inclusiveness in the media, particularly by amplifying the voices and stories of underrepresented communities in sports.
Growing up in a predominantly white town as a biracial individual, I often found myself searching for role models and representation in media that reflected my own experiences. This search was often fruitless, leaving me feeling invisible and unrepresented in the world around me. However, my love for sports provided a refuge where I could not only feel empowered but also find common ground with others regardless of our differences.
Through sports, I recognized the unique potential they hold to bring people together and create positive change. It became clear to me that increasing diverse representation in sports media could have an effect on society as a whole by challenging stereotypes and fostering a greater sense of inclusivity and understanding.
My personal experiences have fueled my determination to be a part of this change. I aspire to work for a company or organization that actively values and celebrates athletes from diverse backgrounds, particularly women and people of color who have historically been underrepresented in sports media. By amplifying the voices and stories of these individuals, I believe we can create a more inclusive and equitable society where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
In addition to my career goals, I also hope to immerse myself in the diverse community of my college campus and continue developing my interpersonal skills and cultural awareness. My leadership experiences in high school have prepared me for this journey and fueled my desire to make a positive impact on the world.
My cousin, who has overcome significant adversity to achieve her own goals, has been a major inspiration in my life. Her dedication to helping others has shown me the importance of determination and purpose in pursuing one's dreams. With this in mind, I am eager to continue my education and develop the skills necessary to make a meaningful impact in the marketing industry and beyond.
Ultimately, I believe that my passion for sports, leadership experiences, and commitment to promoting diversity will allow me to make a positive impact on the world through my future career in sports business marketing.
As an individual deeply committed to giving back to the community and making a positive impact on the world, I am driven by a strong sense of purpose and a desire to contribute to the well-being of others. Throughout my life, I have always sought out opportunities to support and uplift those around me, whether through volunteering, mentoring, or simply lending a helping hand whenever needed.
One of the ways I envision making a significant difference in the world is through a career in finance. Finance, for me, is not just about numbers and profit margins; it is a powerful tool that can be used to create positive change and improve people's lives. My passion for math and analytical thinking has naturally drawn me towards this field, but it is the potential to leverage my knowledge and skills to benefit others that truly motivates me.
In finance, there are countless opportunities to make a difference, from helping individuals and families achieve financial stability to supporting small businesses and entrepreneurs in realizing their dreams. As someone who values community and social responsibility, I am particularly interested in exploring avenues where finance intersects with social impact investing, sustainable development, and philanthropy.
One way I plan to make a positive impact through my career in finance is by advocating for ethical and responsible investment practices. By directing capital towards socially responsible initiatives and companies that prioritize environmental sustainability, human rights, and community development, I hope to contribute to building a more equitable and sustainable future for all.
Furthermore, I am eager to use my financial expertise to empower underserved communities and address systemic inequalities. Whether through financial education programs, microfinance initiatives, or access to affordable credit and investment opportunities, I believe that everyone deserves access to the tools and resources they need to thrive economically.
Beyond individual actions, I am also committed to fostering a culture of corporate social responsibility within the finance industry. By promoting transparency, accountability, and ethical behavior, we can work towards creating a financial sector that serves the greater good and works towards the betterment of society as a whole.
In summary, my ambition is to leverage my passion for finance and mathematics to make a meaningful and lasting impact on the world. Through my future career, I aspire to not only drive financial success but also to promote social change, empower communities, and create a more just and equitable world for future generations.
Please allow me to introduce myself and discuss how I hope to use my future job to change the world. Being from Haiti and now living in Jonesboro, Georgia, the possibilities and challenges of adjusting to two very different environments have moulded my life. At the age of eighteen, the events that caused me to leave Haiti because of growing threats to our lives have strengthened my resolve to make a significant contribution to the world.
My objective is to work as a financial analyst in the future. My application for bachelor's degrees in finance is a reflection of my interest in comprehending and negotiating the intricacies of the financial industry. As someone who is not the first in my family to attend college, I want to shatter stereotypes and open doors for future generations.
I hope to have a beneficial influence in a few different ways through my work as a financial analyst. First and foremost, I want to offer a new viewpoint to the industry by utilizing my distinct background and experiences to offer creative concepts and solutions. Second, I'm dedicated to spreading financial literacy, especially in areas where it might not be readily available to people. One of my main goals is to enable people to make wise financial decisions.
I also want to be a forerunner in the financial sector's diversification. I am driven to support the representation of different voices in business as a person of mixed ethnicity. My goal is to make the financial world more diverse and equal by dismantling obstacles and promoting inclusiveness. In addition, I am passionate about leveraging technology to make financial services more accessible and user-friendly for all individuals, regardless of their background or socioeconomic status. By embracing innovative solutions, such as mobile banking and digital platforms, I aim to bridge the gap between traditional financial institutions and underserved communities. Ultimately, my ultimate objective is to empower individuals from all walks of life to take control of their financial futures and thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.
I intend to get involved in community service and charity outside of my career. Through my professional experience, I aim to make a meaningful contribution to projects that tackle societal issues and foster constructive transformation. Making a real and long-lasting difference in people's lives is my goal, whether it is through community development projects, educational programs, or mentoring schemes.
Essentially, my path is about leveraging my position and abilities to make a positive impact on the world, rather than just focusing on my own achievements. I think I can contribute significantly to good change by fusing my love of money with my dedication to social impact. In addition to expressing my goals, my vision demonstrates my conviction that a better future may be shaped by education and employment.
My name is Anna-Eve Stokes, and I am currently a senior at Stockbridge High School. Throughout my high school years, I have been actively involved in various extracurricular activities, serving as the vice president of both the World Languages Club and the National Honor Society. Alongside my academic pursuits, I maintain a commendable 3.8 weighted GPA. My diverse interests include baking, marketing, real estate, community service, and entrepreneurship, all of which have shaped my aspirations for the future.
As I look ahead to my college years and beyond, my overarching goal is to make a positive impact on the world through my career. At the heart of this vision lies my passion for baking and entrepreneurship. To me, baking is more than just a hobby; it's a transformative experience that brings people together and fosters connections. I envision owning my own bakery, where I can not only delight customers with delicious pastries but also create meaningful experiences that nourish the soul.
However, my ambition extends beyond the confines of the kitchen. I see entrepreneurship as a powerful tool for social change, a platform through which I can address pressing community needs. With my bakery as a cornerstone, I intend to leverage my passion and resources to uplift and empower others.
Currently, I am actively engaged in laying the groundwork for my future endeavors. Through volunteering at local schools and participating in community events like science fairs at Centennial Academy, I seek to foster connections and contribute meaningfully to my community. Additionally, I find joy in sharing my love for baking with family and friends, using homemade treats as a means of spreading happiness and building bonds.
Looking ahead, I am committed to expanding my impact. My bakery will not only offer delicious food but also serve as a hub for community engagement. I envision hosting workshops and events that promote culinary education and empower aspiring bakers to pursue their dreams.
Furthermore, I am passionate about using my resources to address social issues. Through real estate investment and my bakery, I plan to revitalize underserved neighborhoods and establish a non-profit organization dedicated to providing food assistance and promoting food security in my community.
My commitment to making a positive impact is unwavering. I believe that change begins at the grassroots level, and I am determined to play my part in building a more inclusive and compassionate society. Through my dedication to baking, entrepreneurship, and community service, I hope to leave a lasting legacy of kindness and positivity that extends far beyond the walls of my bakery.
From a young age, my ambition has been to leave a positive mark on as many lives as possible, and this pursuit has been the guiding force throughout my life. Initially drawn to the idea of attending a four-year university, my aspirations for a major evolved over time. Initially, dentistry captured my interest, followed by a fascination with sports science. However, it was during my sophomore year that I was introduced to the field of children and adolescent psychiatry, igniting a passion that lasted until I was introduced to entrepreneurship at the age of 15. Well, I should say I started to take entrepreneurship seriously.
My entrepreneurial spirit emerged when I founded my first venture, Helping Hand, at the age of 11. This venture, offering services such as dog-walking, babysitting, and plant-sitting, was not just a means of earning pocket money; it was my first launch into the world of business. Through careful planning and dedication, I invested in business cards and distributed them throughout my neighborhood with the help of my family. It was not until I was approached by a neighbor, one of my clients at the time, asking to start a pool cleaning business together that I would eventually fully realize the potential of entrepreneurship.
Initially motivated by financial gain, I soon discovered a deeper calling within entrepreneurship. Despite my initial aspirations toward psychiatry, I began to recognize the inherent value I could bring to people's lives through business ventures. Whether it was providing older clients with a taken-care of pool for family gatherings or offering employment opportunities to those in need, I realized the profound impact that even small acts could have on others.
This realization transformed my understanding of my career path. I came to see that regardless of the profession I pursued, my ultimate goal remained constant: to make a positive difference in people's lives. Whether it was promoting dental hygiene, enhancing sports safety, or addressing mental health concerns, my underlying motivation was always to serve others.
Additionally, my entrepreneurial journey taught me the importance of giving back to the community. Inspired by the support and mentorship I received from my neighbor-turned-family friend, I aspire to pay it forward by investing in the next generation. Through financial assistance and mentorship, I hope to empower young individuals to pursue their dreams and make their own positive impact on the world.
In short, my journey from childhood aspirations to entrepreneurial endeavors has been driven by a desire to bring value to others. While my career path may have evolved over, my commitment to making a positive impact remains unwavering. Through entrepreneurship and beyond, I am dedicated to leaving a lasting legacy of compassion, support, and empowerment in the lives of those around me.
As a first generation college student, I am incredibly proud of all that I have accomplished so far. Despite the challenges that come with navigating higher education as a first-gen student, I have been fortunate enough to be a part of some amazing organizations that have helped me along the way. One such organization is the National Beta Club, which has allowed me to connect with other high-achieving students and develop leadership skills that will serve me well in the future. Additionally, I am a member of the TRIO Upward Bound program, which has provided me with invaluable academic support and resources as I work towards my college degree.
Becoming a billionaire before the age of 30 is a daunting goal, but it is certainly not impossible. I believe that with the right mindset, determination, and strategy, it is achievable. My goal is not just to accumulate wealth, but to make a positive impact on the world through my business ventures and non-profit organization.
First and foremost, I plan to achieve this goal by starting my own cosmetics and apparel business. I have always been passionate about beauty and fashion, and I believe that there is a huge market for these industries. By creating my own brand, I can bring my unique vision to life and cater to the needs of my customers.
To achieve success in this competitive industry, I plan to focus on innovation and quality. My brand will offer products that are not only stylish and trendy but also safe and sustainable. I will invest in research and development to create new formulas and designs that stand out in the market. I will also prioritize ethical and eco-friendly practices, such as using recycled materials and reducing waste.
In addition to my business, I also plan to start a non-profit organization that focuses on empowering young people. As someone who has faced many obstacles on my journey, I understand the importance of having support and resources to achieve one's goals. My non-profit organization will provide mentorship, education, and resources to young people who may not have access to them otherwise. I believe that by investing in our youth, we can create a brighter future for everyone.
To make a positive impact on the community and future, I plan to focus on several key areas. Firstly, I want to prioritize diversity and inclusivity in all of my ventures. I believe that everyone deserves to feel seen and valued, regardless of their race, gender, or background. By promoting diversity and inclusivity, I hope to create a more accepting and welcoming world for everyone.
Secondly, I want to prioritize sustainability and environmental responsibility. Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing our world, and I believe that businesses have a responsibility to take action. In my cosmetics and apparel business, I will prioritize using eco-friendly materials and reducing waste. In my non-profit organization, I will educate young people about the importance of sustainability and empower them to take action in their own communities.
Finally, I want to prioritize giving back to the community. As someone who has been fortunate enough to have support on my journey, I believe it is important to pay it forward. Through my non-profit organization, I plan to partner with local charities and organizations to make a positive impact on the community. Additionally, I plan to donate a portion of my business profits to charitable causes that align with my values.
Life is funny sometimes. I grew up as a coach's kid. My father coached at my high school for almost 30 years. And he is a retired police officer. So that gives me a bit of a different view of life than some of my classmates and peers. While other kids are thinking about college fun, I'm thinking about future financial goals. That's not to say that I don't want to have a good time, but I am stepping out and taking a bit of a different path than most of the kids around me.
I grew up having conversations about investing, insurance policies, deferred compensation plans and having a great career. I have a plan for building wealth and having a great career. Under my father's guidance, I earned the honor of being our school's defensive player of the year and I was voted as a 1st team all-league selection at defensive end. But unlike most successful athletes, I am choosing to play at a smaller school that does not offer football scholarships. I had to get into school on my merit as a student first, and an athlete second. And while many of my classmates are picking colleges based on the number of students or reputations for how fun they are, I chose a school that will put me in a position to be great AFTER graduation.
I plan on playing football and studying economics next year at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon. No huge stadiums. No bright lights. No television coverage. Just playing for the love of the game and getting a great education. Lewis & Clark College is about 15 minutes from the Nike, Adidas and Under Armor Headquarters, as well as several accounting firms in that Portland area. I was told by the football staff at Lewis & Clark that those companies offer internships to members of the football program. So, I can earn valuable job experience with internships in the off-season when I am not playing college football.
Eventually, I want to own commercial residential real estate as a business and a supplement to my career in finance. My experience in the finance world will help guide me in that direction. I want to leverage the earnings the commercial real estate to purchase small single-family rental homes in Ohio, Michigan or Tennessee. I will look for areas where a single large employer has a large workforce. Those employees will need quality places to live at fair prices. So, having a college degree will not only help me academically, but it will help the communities that I wish to serve with the business that I seek to build.
This year, my senior project at Saint Mary's is building and coding an app that will keep track of my college class assignments, schedules for non-scholastic events, and assignment deadlines. Building this app will assist me in making sure that I stay on task with my football practice schedule, my game and travel schedule, and my academic schedule. It was important to me to create something that will help me to be successful in my immediate future, not just get a passing score for the project.
In the future, I plan on going back to my high school and giving the younger kids ALL this information on wealth building, managing time, managing finances, and creating a business with an eye toward service to our community. I would love to coach and mentor as well. We call ourselves a Saint Mary's family. And if we all help each other we can all succeed.
My name is Madison and I am a high school senior excited to embark on my journey in higher education and ultimately, my career. From a young age, I have always been driven to make a positive impact on the world and contribute to the betterment of society. This desire has only grown as I have learned about various social and environmental issues and witnessed firsthand the inequalities and challenges faced by marginalized communities.
I plan to make a positive impact on the world through my future career by using my skills and knowledge in the business world to create sustainable and equitable solutions to these issues. As a business major, I believe I have the ability to not only contribute to the financial success of a company, but also to use my influence to implement positive change and promote sustainability and social justice.
One way I envision making a positive impact through my career is by becoming involved in socially responsible investing. This involves investing in companies that not only generate financial returns, but also prioritize social and environmental impact. By supporting these types of companies, I believe I can contribute to the growth of businesses that are actively working towards making a positive impact on the world.
Additionally, I hope to use my knowledge and skills in business to advocate for policies and initiatives that promote sustainability and social justice. This could include working with government agencies or non-profit organizations to develop and implement policies that address issues such as climate change, income inequality, and discrimination.
In my future career, I also hope to use my business skills to help create and support businesses that are focused on addressing social and environmental issues. For example, I may work with entrepreneurs to help them start and grow businesses that provide environmentally friendly products or services, or that employ and empower marginalized communities.
I believe that business has the potential to be a powerful force for good in the world, and I am excited to be part of this movement towards more sustainable and equitable practices. In order to make the most positive impact possible, I plan to continuously educate myself on social and environmental issues and stay up to date on the latest research and best practices in this field.
Furthermore, I plan to use my personal and professional networks to connect with and learn from others who are also committed to making a positive impact on the world. By collaborating and sharing knowledge and resources, I believe we can amplify our efforts and create even greater positive change.
I understand that making a positive impact on the world is a complex and ongoing process, and I am committed to being a part of this journey for the long term. I believe that by using my skills and knowledge in the business world to create sustainable and equitable solutions, I can make a meaningful and lasting difference in the world.
As I embark on my journey toward a future business career, I am driven by a deep desire to make a positive impact on the world. I firmly believe that business has the power to shape societies, drive innovation, and address pressing global challenges. Born and raised in a small town, I was exposed to the struggles and aspirations of my community from an early age. Witnessing economic disparities and environmental issues around me, I developed a strong sense of responsibility and a burning desire to contribute to a better world. This desire led me to pursue a degree in business, where I gained a comprehensive understanding of various disciplines such as finance, marketing, and entrepreneurship.
In my future career, I plan to make a positive impact on the world by integrating sustainability and social responsibility into business practices. I firmly believe that businesses can thrive while also being responsible stewards of the environment and actively working toward social justice. By promoting sustainable practices, ethical decision-making, and fostering inclusive workplaces, I aim to create a business environment that prioritizes long-term societal benefits over short-term gains.
One of the critical challenges we face today is the urgent need to address climate change and reduce our ecological footprint. Through my future business career, I aspire to drive sustainability initiatives by integrating renewable energy sources, implementing circular economy principles, and adopting eco-friendly practices. I envision working towards creating business models that prioritize resource efficiency, minimize waste, and actively contribute to a greener and more sustainable future.
In addition to environmental sustainability, I am deeply committed to promoting social justice and equality. I believe that businesses can be powerful agents for positive change by actively working towards equitable practices and fostering diversity and inclusion. I intend to advocate for fair labor practices, gender equality, and equal opportunities for underrepresented groups. By creating inclusive workplaces and supporting social initiatives, I aim to contribute to a society that values and respects the inherent dignity and worth of every individual.
Furthermore, innovation and entrepreneurship are integral drivers of progress and change. Through my future career, I aim to foster a culture of innovation and support budding entrepreneurs who are working on impactful solutions. By leveraging technology, encouraging creativity, and nurturing talent, I hope to contribute to the development of groundbreaking ideas and initiatives that address societal challenges and create sustainable value for all stakeholders.
In conclusion, as I embark on my future career in business, I am committed to making a positive impact on the world. By integrating sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical practices into business models, I aspire to contribute to a more equitable and sustainable future. Through my endeavors, I hope to inspire and empower others to join me in creating a world where businesses thrive while actively addressing global challenges. Together, we can build a brighter future for generations to come.
