I am a sophmore in High school and I am thinking of applying for the Rotary Youth Exchange program. Since the process takes time, I have to apply this year and if I get chosen, I will go next year. My question is, If I do this program would it help me get into college? My history teacher told us that if you had this program on your transcript, colleges would be impressed (since very few do it) and it would really set you aside from other applicants for college.

Ok, right now i'm a student at UT San Antonio and it has been a dream of mine to attend USC. Here's the thing.. My first year in college didn't go so well..i dropped quite a few classes because i had to work so much to pay the bills. But right now I have straight A's in all my classes, plus i am a tutor here at school. I also do volunteer work every month at an orphanage for the united way. I plan to attend in fall 08, almost a year from now, if i get accepted of course. What can I do to increase my chances of getting in and any advice i could use?

I have been reading up on the University of Texas in Austin and it seems to be a good fit for me. I have a 4.41 weighted GPA and a 3.7 unweighted GPA (top 9 % of class). I got an 1850 an the SATs (or 1300 critical reading and math). I am president of FCCLA, vice president of ecology club, and treasurer/historian of science club. I am in National Honor Society and National French Honor Society. I am in a Math and Science Center program at my school. I also have 200+ hours of community service. Lastly, over the summer I volunteered most of my time at the Capital Area Health Network, a healthcare system in my area. I know it is hard for out-of-state students but I am very interested in this school. I would probably apply for the school of natural sciences. Also, I am African-American and I do not live in Texas, so the 10% rule does not apply.

1. As a teenager, what was your American Dream?

2. Are you living or working toward that Dream now?

3. Was there ever a time in your life where you reached or got one step away from your American Dream and then it all turned for you?

4. Is your American Dream any different now than it was when you were a teen? How so?

5. As you get older, has the American Dream become more or less important to you?

6. On a scale one to five (1 being not important at all), how important is money in your American Dream?

7. How often would you say you thought about your American dream? On a scale 1-5 (1=not at all).

8. How much on estimate did your education affect your American Dream on a scale 1 to 5 once again (1 being not at all).

Thank You.

I apologise to those who answered my half a question!! dont know what happened there!! To cut a long story short... I took my child to school a few minutes late, looking for a missing jumper....the jumper had been left at school. I was looking for the jumper and was approached by a woman I had never met before. This woman told me not to enter the class with my child (who is 5 years old) but to go to her office instead. I told her I needed to ask the form teacher a question, and she stated in an aggressive manner "do you know who I am? I am the head teacher". Because of her attitude I decided to ignore her and go with my little girl into the classroom to ask the teacher about the jumper. On leaving the class I was grabbed by the arm ) and told to go to her office. I did not have time to go to her office as I was on my way to work....so she shouted to me that she would exclude my child from the school!! I was then sent a letter the next day warning me about MY aggressive behaviour!

I finished college 5 years ago and got a BA in Psychology. As it is, I'm not using it and don't actually have intentions to. (I know, poor career planning on my part). Right now I'm in banking but I want to go to school again to pursue something else. Do people ever go back to college to get another bachelor's degree years after they graduate?

I realize I could just get a Master's in a different area, but I'm concerned I won't get into a program because I don't have the right education/job experience/and I could've gotten better grades in my undergrad studies. I just wanted to get an idea of what other people do in similar situations. Thanks.
