me in 5 years
In three to five years from today, as a hard worker, I have many goals set for myself for my near future. I know that by striving for what I want and believing I can do it that I will be where I truly want to be. I definitely will be going to college, a large one where I can meet new people to be with along the way. The business and financing majors seem to interest me the most from past experience, so I can definitely see myself making a career of it someday. In five years, I see myself recieving my Bachelor's degree and going into my next two years for my PHD. I'd like to start my life and eventually achieve "the American Dream." I believe the highest education you can recieve will get me where I want to be, and I truly value education. There are also many other goals I would like to accomplish over the next three to five years. As of right now, I plan to get a small part-time job and keep working my way up for the next few years. I would like to start working at a local bank in my neighborhood, and I know from there only bigger and better opportunities will come my way. I'd like to work longer hours over the summer and eventually get a new job that connects with my major so I can get the experience while getting the education. I am looking into attending college in New York, New Jersey, Florida and even here in Massachusetts. I can only hope for help from a scholarship to really go into a nice college that'd I would really love to attend. Once I get to college, I plan to work even harder than I ever have before. I take school more seriously than anything because it's hard to live the life I would like to one day have without a good education. I've worked so hard through out high school to get where I am now, and I have no intentions of stopping now. I believe that if you want something, you need to try your best, or else there's no point in trying at all. I'd also like to meet new people along the way, who have a similar work ethic and career path interest.

    The most important goal for my future is to obtain a satisfying career. Growing up I saw how unhappy my mother was working at a job that she hated just to make enough to provide for our family. I further understood how important a satisfying career was to me when I started working the graveyard shift as a dockworker during community college. I strongly disliked almost everything about the job including the exposure to extreme temperatures, the job’s filthy nature, the long and irregular hours, and most of all because it was unfulfilling. I was miserable with my occupation but I was dependent on it because it was lucrative and provided me with a way to support myself through college. I worked fulltime at this job for two years while also being a fulltime student until I transferred to SIU. The dread that I felt toward my job made me work harder academically because I knew that someday my hard work would amount to a career that I thoroughly…

It was during my last two years that I finally came to realize this decision would help determine the rest of my life.

    After high school I plan to attend city college and obtain my associates degree. I believe this is a safe route because it will save me a lot of money instead of going straight to a four year university. After I receive my associate’s degree, I will transfer into a university. I plan on attending a university that is in Illinois because the tuition is much cheaper. This again will help me save money.The university that I'm looking towards will have a nursing program which will benefit me because I need to obtain a bachelor's degree in nursing. After I transfer into a university, I'll be in school for four years and obtain my master’s degree. I plan on paying the off school by working. Also, the scholarships I have applied to will help me as well. The money that I receive from FAFSA will also contribute in helping me pay off my tuition. By staying here I will be able to stay with my parents therefore my expenses won't be so much. After I graduate, I'll get certified and get my license and hopefully start working. I want to succeed in my goal because I know how important mental health is. Everyone needs to have a healthy mindset in order to function…

    Hello, I am currently a junior in college. This has been my third at Houston community college. I initially started off by wanting to be a Dental Hygienist but later I started to realize it was not something I was passionate about. I soon came to the conclusion that I want to be an elementary school teacher. In the beginning I was thinking about money rather than a degree I would be dedicated to. I graduated high school back in 2011 and to be honest college was never in my panorama. After graduating I got my first job at Family dollar and that was my wake up call. I realized that I would not be able to live an abundant life getting paid minimum wage. I knew that if I wanted to make a difference in my life, I would have to go back to school.…

    My goal is to have a job that I am passionate about that will also help me be financially stable and independent. As of now, I am only able to attend college because I have received a decent amount of federal aid, but approximately one-third of the aid I have received is from loans that will only accumulate in the years to come. Even with the loans and other financial aid, I am struggling to pay off my bill each semester while also trying to save up for my future. So far, college has been the most enriching experience of my life, and I cannot imagine what I would be doing if I chose not to attend. It has opened my eyes to new perspectives and knowledge that I may not have had otherwise; if I had to drop out for any reason, especially financial, I would be devastated, as I have already rooted myself in the culture and potential that it has to offer me.…
