Dear Admissions, I have lived in Naperville, IL my entire life, and I'm not sure whether that is a good or bad thing. It is all I know.

As far as I can remember, the words "knowledge is priceless," had always seemed to come out of my mother. Perhaps it was due to my lack of interest in school all the way up until the end of high school, or perhaps it was from her own experience, of knowing how harsh life can be without an education. The words had always slipped through my mind though, and after high school, I had moved down to Virginia Beach where I had worked as a telemarketer for almost a year. In November of 2001, my mother, who still remained in New Jersey, had decided to take me to India. I had spent almost five months in...

Throughout the course of our lives we encounter many challenges which significantly shape us as individuals. Perhaps the most significant event in my life to date was my family's move from a small town in upstate New York to Philadelphia as I was entering my sophomore year of High School. The transition was very difficult as I was accustomed to life in Endwell, New York, population 13,000, a place where I knew everybody and everyone knew me.
