Dear Admission Office committee of the University of Pennsylvania,
At first, I would like to sincerely thank the Admission Office for taking the time to look through my application amongst thousand of applicants and offering me the singular opportunity to be on the waiting list. To manifest the tremendous impact that this decision caused, I echo my father’s words: I am proud of you. You have not only broken all the barriers and became the first family member to enroll at a University but also conquered a place of hope on the waiting list of your dream college. Secondly, I sent my application forms to UPenn in December of 2015; however, as a dynamic person, I have changed and accomplished some goals since then. Therefore, I will take this

Afterward, this result meant that I was admitted to the three best Brazilian Engineering Schools: State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) and University of São Paulo (USP). Moreover, my performance on the vestibular (admission test for Brazilian universities) was excellent: I ranked among the top-10 Computer Engineering students at UNICAMP, I conquered the first place at the Computer Science undergraduate course of UFMG, and I scored better than 99.5% of the students who took the test to USP. My performance on FUVEST, USP’s admission test, allowed me to enroll on my first choice major - Computer Engineering, which has an acceptance rate of approximately …show more content…
However, after the first test week, I figured out my euphoria was ephemeral, and I was nothing but skeptical and disappointed. Despite the fact that my performance at the tests and projects was extremely satisfying - I got the second highest Calculus and Linear Algebra score and highest Computer Programming score among freshman students and also developed a robot prototype based on BB-8 (the Star Wars movie droid) - I was not content with my formal education. The Polytechnic School of USP does not have a flexible curriculum; consequently, students are forced to study only engineering-related subjects, leaving no time to explore another area of studies. POLI graduates engineers but not social and well-rounded
College Admissions Essay If someone asked me where I am going to be in ten years, this would be my answer. I have a great, high-paying job, and beautiful wife and family, and a nice sports car parked in front of my lovely house. When I look into the future, I see myself being successful and happy. Even though I always pictured myself this way, I never worried too much about how I would get there.
At the start of the semester, my oblivious state of nature associating with the Chinese culture reached an unacceptable level. Implementing a necessary change, I decided to educate myself on different cultures starting with China. I failed to ponder that such a rich, deep culture existed outside America. Encompassed by this country’s unique yet suffocating melting pot culture, my outlook believed ideas such as uniformity between American Chinese food and Authentic Chinese food. After this course, my bigot perspective widened as I witnessed diversity in the world. Before this class, when I thought of Chinese food, my connotation jumped to thoughts associated with chop suey, but as I progressed my education, my mindset gradually pondered foods like steamed buns or “New Year Cakes” with authentic Chinese food.
My name is Aicha Kanneh and I am writing this letter to appeal my admission decision. I have recently applied for admission as an undergraduate student to Winona State University. I received a response to my application on January 18, 2017. I was denied acceptance based upon not meeting the current entrance standards. It is my purpose with this letter to change your mind, and therefore, I hope this letter finds an understanding, compassionate, and forgiving person. If so, after reading this, I am certain you will acknowledge my transformation,

I am confident and enthusiastic about my proposed interest areas and I believe I have the necessary skills and competence to become an asset to Stanford University. With my ability to self-learn, persevere and work hard, I am sure that I can face the university’s highly challenging environment. I am aware that to excel in the program, I would have to meet the high standards set by the university. I am confident that I can foster a symbiotic relationship with the university and its students. With this, I humbly ask for the golden opportunity to be admitted to Stanford University.
As a student, I have always been inspired by the professors who are very enthusiastic about the subject, encourage students’ curiosity and guide them to think critically. I believe the essence good teaching lies on the deep understanding of the subject and the ability to explain the concepts to a diverse group of students with different aptitude levels and academic backgrounds. To pique student’s interest in science the teacher not only requires to provide a steady flow of up-to-date knowledge for their conceptual growth, it also demands introducing the pre-identified scientific challenges, developing technological skills to tackle practical problems and fostering their creativity. As a Geoscientist, the added advantage is in introducing the
The personal challenge that I faced mainly dealt with my health. Ever since I was child, I was very sick physically. The doctor recommended that I not play or participate in any type of sports because of my poor health. This led to a lack of confidence in myself to perform my best. I have always thought that there was a barrier somewhere in my life, and I could not pass that barrier because if I did then my life would certainly be in ruins. I was raised with the philosophies of the Chinese. I was told that no one could perform many tasks at once and be successful. Ever since, I always have an image that if I participated in activities at school then I would do poorly in my school work. I never pushed my limits to the maximum to challenge myself. It was as if there was a wall standing in front of me blocking me from being successful. I was always afraid that the consequences might be permanent and my grades would drop.
To whom this may concern, I unfortunately write this appeal letter again today because I failed to maintain the university standards for academic success for another semester. I truly promise and guarantee this will be my last readmission appeal letter I write. I do sincerely apologize for not meeting the university standards and I am disappointed in myself as I came close to the 2.0 GPA for the second time. First off, I would like to acknowledge that during the middle of the semester I had a very serious family emergency arise. I had a relative I am close with, enter the hospital in a life-threatening condition.
Banking on an excellent academic record coupled with a keen interest in the ever-growing field of science and technology motivated me to take up engineering. In school, I consistently secured one of the top positions of the class. I have always been attracted towards subjects that draw upon one's analytical abilities. Thus, Mathematics and Physics were my favorite subjects and I secured 89% marks in my 12th class. I am among the top 3 percent in Engineering entrance test to UG schools out of two and half lakh students and I could get into the top ranked college of the state and one of the most reputed universities in the country, K L Uni...
I have accomplished a lot in a short period; however, my journey is not complete until I continue my education. Essentially, this degree will help foster my growth and career success. My passion and dedication will speak for itself. My hard work and determination will prevail and I am a fit more than the next applicant because I have the passion, experience, critical thinking and analytical skills needed to complete this program through successfully arguing my capstone in front of a board or committee. My goals are definitely aligned with this program and I hope my next read is an acceptance letter from the admissions council.
