The College Life: Personal Statement
The College Life: Personal Statement
Immigrating to the United States has shaped my dreams and aspirations in
a variety of ways. I settled in California in 2004, when all I knew was
fluent Spanish and a mentality to learn as much English I could in
school, which was insanely hard at the time. The transition of migrating
from El Salvador to the United States drastically impacted my life by
learning a new culture and lifestyle. Not only did I have difficulties
in making friends but being academically competitive against my fellow
classmates was really hard when the only word I really knew was “hello”.
As a seven year old, I struggled to comprehend and communicate in
English; my understanding of math on the other hand has enabled me to
form future goals I never thought possible when I arrived to the United
States.
My comprehension of mathematics enabled me to build up my
confidence at school because I was able to follow along these lessons
much easily. For this reason, I would like to pursue a career where math
is used frequently and in a professional setting preferably in the
field of accounting. This major also interests me because I want to be
able to have a broad range of career options upon graduation such as
preparing to be a certified public accountant, working in finance or
maybe even marketing. Being a certified public accountant would not only
open doors for me but would increase my chances for being recruited
into one of the big four accounting firms, these firms perform audits,
financial consulting, and legal services for businesses. I recognize
that I have much to learn regarding this field and I hope to build the
skills necessary as a college student to be successful in this field.
Similar to the challenges I faced when I immigrated here I anticipate
many roadblocks that I will have to overcome to being successful in
these fields.
My immigration from El Salvador has provided me
the opportunity at a new life. My life experiences have come together to
inspire me and my support networks which helped me to develop the
perseverance and character necessary to achieve my dreams and
aspirations. In particular my parents, teachers, coaches, counselors and
mentors have all played a critical role in helping me to foster my
academic interests in mathematics, formulate life goals and motivate me
to strive for success in the classroom.
