Ever since I was a little girl, traveling has been in my blood. It was never something I chose, but rather it chose me. As I became older, my thirst to travel grew exponentially. By the time I was 10 years old, my family had traveled to several different countries spanning the European continent. To say the least, I've been privileged to be able to visit so many different interesting countries. For most of my life, I saw my travels as...Read more...Supplemental Essay Unique question posed by school271 WordsGiven that a plurality of voices is crucial to broadening our educational experiences and cultural awareness, what is one view that you hold—large or small—that would contribute to the variety of perspectives at Notre Dame?: As a Roman Catholic Dominican, my grandmother was not always tolerant or open to other beliefs that were not similar to hers. She was quite close-minded and this was not uncommon in the environment she grew up in. Many of the people who...Read more...Supplemental Essay “Why us” school essay257 WordsWhy Northwestern?: Upon opening a Northwestern pamphlet that was sent to my address, I could immediately sense the school spirit that goes on at the school. All the happy students walking across campus to go to class or to an event made me realize more than ever that I wanted to be a future face in that catalogue. The Big Ten football games, the amazing professors, the Kellogg Program for undergrads, the internship and study abroad opportunities, even the school's...Read more...Supplemental Essay Unique question posed by school429 WordsTell us about a time you had all of the facts but missed the meaning: Sometimes words get taken out of their intended context and get lost in translation. These words that are meant to make us understand, can as easily make us confused. When my parents informed me of our financial status, I listened and nodded, but in all honesty, I missed what they were trying to portray to me. Behind the facts that they were spewing, they were...Read more...Supplemental Essay Other179 WordsFor Notre Dame, I felt like it was very important to emphasize my beliefs and stance on religion. Although I am Catholic, I wanted the school to know that I am a spiritual person beyond my religion, and there are certain things that I may disagree with the Catholic Church. It is important to always portray yourself as who you truly are to the school you are applying to, and Notre Dame needed to know that I am an open-minded,...Read more...General Admissions Advice
How I chose schools to apply to126 WordsSince I hadn't toured schools before applying, I didn't exactly know what I wanted. I applied to 16 schools, which of course was a lot of time and energy spent, but in the long run it was very worth...Read more...My extracurricular activities in college, and why I chose them108 WordsI wasn't much of a club person in high school. I was a member of a couple, but not very involved. In college, it is so important to join at least one...Read more...Why I ultimately chose my school188 WordsI was very stuck between Northwestern University and my current school, the University of Notre Dame. What ultimately happened was I visited both schools and created a pros and cons list. This helped a lot because I was able to see what factors were more important to me. I ended up choosing Notre Dame because all...Read more...Post-college plans128 WordsAs a business student, I hope to get a job right out of school. Especially since the Mendoza College of Business is the number one undergrad school for business in the country, many companies recruit students straight out...Read more...Why I declined other schools384 WordsSome schools I was accepted to were my safety schools, and considering I got into many of my top choice schools, I automatically knew I did not want to attend those schools. Additionally, some schools did not give me enough scholarship or financial aid money, and if I could not afford to attend the school, I did not want to submit myself to a lifetime of debt. Since I applied to so many schools, it was difficult to decide which schools I was going to reject, and which I would ultimately attend. After I decided not to go to the...Read more...Recommended summer activities during high school and college287 WordsIn high school, this is the time where you can relax and hang out with friends. I got a job the summer going into my senior year so I could have some extra cash during the school year. I had the same job throughout the year and also the summer before going into college. I don't regret my decision, but I do think it would have been more productive to find an internship for the summer going into my senior year because it would have given...Read more...High School Performance

I love the performing arts (I play tuba + three other instruments, sing, and do theatre), and to unwind I like running, lifting, or long boarding. I'm a pretty easy going guy, but hate not putting 100% into what I do.katie.homaColumbia
